CONCERNED WITH THE ENVIRONMENT

The Stripe Hog system is clean and respectful with the environment, since it only uses clean water under pressure, generating no waste or dust as is the case with shot blasting. To carry out the work, the provision of additional waste management areas is not necessary, since the waste remains at all times inside the tank of the truck, avoiding risks derived from the discharge of the waste.

 

The supply of good quality aggregates is an important issue given its scarcity, difficulty of exploitation and exploration of new resources. This, together with the long transport distances, make us consider the NEED TO IMPROVE THE MACROTEXTURE AND SLIP RESISTANCE OF THE AGGREGATES THAT ARE PART OF THE TREADING LAYERS THAT ARE ALREADY IN SERVICE.

cOMPARASION

Bituminous mixture.

 

Taking a BBTM11B type bituminous mixture as a reference, the aggregates and bitumen used in its manufacture per km of roadway represent a total of:

 

693,000 kg / km of road.

693 T MBC / km carriageway.

Bituminous grout.

 

Taking a bituminous slurry as a reference, the aggregates and bitumen used in its manufacture per km of roadway represent a total of:

 

231,000 kg / km of road.

231 T MBC / km carriageway.

2,400 kg CO2 / km road.

Hydrogrinding.

 

The works that we carry out with hydrogrinding have a total emission of:

 

32 kg C02 / km of road.

Advantage

1. Reduction of CO2 emissions and other pollutants (higher air quality).

 

2. Low energy consumption during the process.

 

3. Contribution to not having to open new deposits of aggregate.

 

4. Not reducing existing reserves of aggregates.

 

5. Reduction of the need for landfills.

 

6. Reduction of noise and vibrations generated, which cause annoyances of greater or lesser intensity to third parties, negatively affect the fauna and reduce the quality of the environment.

 

7. Reduction of the emission of dust particles into the atmosphere, which negatively affect the quality of the landscape, dirty public roads, reduce visibility on highways and roads, affecting the safety of users, and even affect public roads. surface and groundwater by entrainment of deposited dust.
