Need To Measure Flyash Silo Levels? |

Flyash is a result of the combustion process that takes place in coal fired power plants. This ash is collected and disposed of. However, in recent years use of flyash has increased. Cement producers and concrete manufacturing batch plants all use flyash to enhance the composition and value of the product they produce.
However, flyash is collected and stored in silos at the power plant, cement plant and concrete batch plant and the inventory of this material needs to be monitored for various reasons. Flyash is lightweight, low in dielectric constant and extremely dusty, especially during silo filling operations. These characteristics present challenges to nearly every form of level measurement technology. This makes obtaining a consistent, accurate and reliable measurement very difficult.... until now.
A new "white paper" is available that discusses the nature of flyash, why it is difficult to measure and where it is used. This paper then proceeds to offer a solution for measuring and monitoring the level and inventory of this increasingly used and valuable commodity and by-product of coal-fired power plants.

If you have any questions or comments about this free "white paper", please let me know. Thanks!
