MAC® + MAR®: MAGALDI INTEGRATED SYSTEM

In addition to the MAC® System benefits, the MAR® System ones include the following:

1. Conversion of bottom ash into saleable fly ash to cement factories.

2. Complete elimination of costs associated with bottom ash handling and disposal.

3. UBC content reduction in the fly ash due to the dilution factor of dry bottom ash (poor in UBC) and by choosing the ESP sections with the highest UBC content.

4. Boiler efficiency increase thanks to the heat recovery by the UBC content reduction in the recycled ash.

5. Fly ash in compliance with ENV 197-1 for cement and UNI-EN 450 for concrete (UBC ≤ 5% and fineness ≤ 40% as oversized particles on a sieve hole diameter of 45 µm).

6. Respect for the environment: mixing fly ash with cement, CO2 emissions decrease. The production of 1.0 ton of Portland cement produces about 0.92 t of CO2 (CO2 trading ≈ 30 €/t).
