"These dual-lane Tritan systems will greatly enhance our customers' productivity, allowing them to lower their cost per watt," said Jan-Paul van Maaren, Ph.D., vice president of marketing at BTU.
The Tritan metallization firing system, featuring BTU's exclusive TriSpeed™ technology, allows users to take advantage of superior ramp rates ― up to 200ºC per second ― while not compromising the drying and cooling sections of the profile. The three-belt, three-speed system provides revolutionary control of profile development. In trials, Tritan has consistently shown an improvement in fill factor resulting in increased efficiency. This, combined with Tritan's low cost of ownership, enables our customers to achieve the lowest cost per watt.

Vecoplan - Planning and implementation of complete processing plants in refuse derived fuel production
In order to reduce the costs involved in the energy-intensive production of cement, many manufacturers are turning to refuse-derived fuels (RDF), considerably reducing the proportion of expensive primary fuels they would normally use. Solid fuels are being increasingly used - these might be used tyres, waste wood or mixtures of plastics, paper, composite materials and textiles. Vecoplan provides operators of cement plants with proven and robust components for conveying the material and separating iron and impurities, efficient receiving stations, storage systems and, of course, efficient shredders for an output in various qualities.
