Bitumen Drum Decanter

A bitumen drum decanter, also known as an asphalt drum melter or bitumen decanter, is a specialized equipment used in the construction industry for melting solid bitumen (asphalt) that comes in drums. The primary purpose of a bitumen drum decanter is to convert the solid bitumen into a liquid state, making it easier to handle and use in various road construction and maintenance applications.

Bitumen drum decanters are particularly useful in situations where solid bitumen needs to be converted into a liquid form for applications such as asphalt mixing plants, road repairs, and maintenance projects. The use of a drum decanter eliminates the need for manual handling of solid bitumen, making the process safer and more efficient. Additionally, it ensures that the bitumen is in a workable state for mixing with aggregates to produce hot mix asphalt.
