Handling of Difficult Bulk Materials Is Not That Difficult, Any Longer

Solid fuels

THE SICON SYSTEM conveys your bulk material from loading to discharge point in a single conveyor without transfers and spillage.

An ideal solution to bulk handling problems.

The SLCON transport system consists of a single continuous belt that goes round sharp corners from
loading to discharge, eliminating the need for transfer points. The belt is open only during loading and discharge, the returning section is closed.

This eliminates dust and spillage problems, making SICON an ideal conveying system for solid fuels such as coal, wood-chips, peat, straw and waste products.

Ash handling

ASH IN VARIOUS FORMS presents a problem to most power plants. But with the SICON enclosed conveying system the main dust and spillage sources are eliminated.

In collaboration with NEI John Thompson Australia, SICON has introduced a new complete ash handling technique. The fly ash is "conditioned" with 10 % water and mixed with the bottom ash before transport ation to the disposal area in the enclosed conveyor developed by SICON.

The SICON system at Mount Piper Power Plant consists of two 360 tph conveyors providing 100% stand-by capacity. The conveyors extend some 800 metres from the main storage silo to the ash disposal area.

What the SICON enclosed conveyor can do for you.

There is a wide range of products to be transported into and out of a power plant.

The SICON enclosed conveyor offers a unique and modern system for efficient materials handling.

FGD plants

A UNIQUE FEATURE OF the SICON system is its ability to run round narrow curves and manage steep inclinations while still keeping the material enclosed and completely free from spillage.

SICON doesn't need costly modifications to buildings or additional steel structures. Energy consumption is low.

Idlers operate in a clean environment. There is no material loss and no clearing of spillage.

At the Tahkoluoto Power Plant in Finland, spillage problems from moist gypsum are eliminated in a single conveyor from loading to discharge.

SICON - the way you want it

The SICON system consists of a single continuous belt that goes round sharp corners and in steep inclinations from loading to discharge, eliminating the need for transfer points. The belt is open only during loading and discharge. The returning part is closed. Dust and spillage problems are eliminated.

Considerable savings are possible through the simple system's installation, low maintenance costs and the resulting improvements to the working environment. With its extremely good adaptability, the system is easy to install in existing buildings and plants.

Simple brackets

Low weight per metre makes SICON units easy to attach to existing walls or steel structures.

Integrates into existing pipe galleries

With its exceptionally good flexibility the SJCON system can be easily suspended from existing structures.
