Custom Design of a 50/50 Coal & Bio-Mass, Co-Fired System

Green Globe Services was contracted by a customer in the power generation industry to custom design a material handling system for a coal fired bio-mass system. The customer required a full, turn-key design that was ready to build. This system employed eight belt systems, some as long as 82', and up to 48" wide, driven by electric motors up to 10 HP.

Components and materials where selected, and 3-D models were created utilizing Solidworks.Upon completion of a finite element analysis, we developed rigging and erection documentation, and began the materials procurement process.

Within 12 weeks of receiving drawing approval from the customer, Green Globe Services delivered a comprehensive system design consisting of: a channel-framed, 5 HP unloading belt measuring 42"x30'; a suspended electromagnetic self-cleaning cross belt; a 36"x60' 10 HP truss belt with 35 degree troughing idlers; a metal detector with flip gate; five specifically designed belt conveyers; two 10 HP 36" wide drag conveyers; a vibratory pan and belt discharge that feeds across the drag conveyer; 11 plugged chute switches; and 8 transition chutes.

Our completed design met our strict standards, as well as those put forth by the customer. To learn more about this project or how we can design the right system for your needs, contact Green Globe Services.
