Capious Bitumen Decanters and Drum Melters are primarily used with asphalt mixing plants in territories where bitumen in bulk is either not available or irregular supplies bitumen stored in drums is used as an alternative.
Capious Bitumen decanters are designed for very easy to operate, low man power and provide the most efficient system for ensuring a high throughput of drummed bitumen. Designed for use in association with bulk storage tanks the melted bitumen is automatically transferred from the decanter storage tank to the Bitumen bowser or bitumen tank during the decanting process.
We have two models available with a melting rate of about 4 and 6 ton/hour. This equipment is designed to continuously melt bitumen contained in standard drums of 200 kg/each, so to enable a constant supply of bitumen. If needed, a suitable hot oil heater should be provided.
