Famous 20 Feet Heated Shipping Asphalt Container Factory, Factories

Asphalt container is a special container. In order to ensure transportation, there are heating pipes inside the container, which are used with high-efficiency burners to maintain the temperature of the asphalt, usually around 130°C, to ensure its good fluidity and prevent solidification.

Product Description

Product Introduction

Asphalt containers are made of rectangular structural steel, with the characteristics of light weight and high strength. They can adapt to the transshipment and loading and unloading operations under various modes of transportation such as sea, road, and rail, and can ensure stability and safety in different transportation environments. Generally, they are made of high-quality metal materials, have good corrosion resistance and pressure resistance, and can withstand the pressure and temperature changes of asphalt during transportation. There are heating pipes in the container body, which can heat the asphalt through burners and other equipment to ensure that the asphalt remains in liquid state during transportation, which is convenient for loading and unloading and transportation. It is usually equipped with temperature observation instruments, thermocouple sensors, etc., which are used to monitor the temperature of asphalt in the container in real time. There are also feed ports and discharge ports. When loading, the goods enter from the loading hole on the top of the tank body, and when unloading, they are sucked out from the discharge hole or the top loading hole. Transporting asphalt in asphalt containers reduces the volatilization and leakage of asphalt during transportation, and reduces pollution to the environment. At the same time, the built-in heating system can be heated once during transportation, avoiding the energy waste caused by multiple heating in traditional transportation methods. The carrying capacity of a single container will also be larger to meet the needs of large-scale use. Its loading and unloading process is also very simple and can be completed in a short time, which also greatly improves the speed of logistics turnover.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What materials are asphalt containers constructed from?

Asphalt containers are constructed using high-quality rectangular structural steel and durable metal materials. This design provides high strength, lightweight performance, and robust resistance to corrosion and internal pressure.

Q: How is asphalt kept in a liquid state during transportation?

The container is built with an integrated heating pipe system. When connected to burners or external heating equipment, the system heats the asphalt, ensuring it stays liquid for seamless loading, unloading, and transit.

Q: Can these containers be used for multimodal transport?

Yes. These containers are engineered to safely adapt to transshipment across various transportation modes, including road, rail, and sea, ensuring cargo stability in diverse transport environments.

Q: How is bitumen loaded and discharged from the tank?

Loading is completed through the top loading hole of the tank body. For discharge, the bitumen is either extracted through the dedicated bottom discharge hole or drawn out from the top opening.

Q: How is product temperature monitored inside the container?

The container is equipped with dedicated temperature observation instruments and thermocouple sensors, allowing real-time monitoring of internal asphalt temperatures throughout transit.

Q: What are the standard capacity and pressure specifications?

The standard container provides an internal cubic capacity of 31.5 m³, with an ambient temperature rating of up to 160°C, a design pressure of 0.4 Bar, and a maximum working pressure of 0.3 Bar.
