Asphalt processing and storage

 

Eastman Therminol® heat transfer fluids are used in many asphalt processing industry applications. Heat transfer fluid systems are used to maintain asphalt at specific temperatures at bulk terminals which store and process asphalt. Roofing material plants, which use asphalt as a raw material for shingle production, require heat transfer fluid systems for heating the asphalt storage and material transfer system components. Barges that transfer asphalt maintain fluidity of their cargo with an onboard heat transfer fluid system. Therminol heat transfer fluids are commonly used in these applications.

Therminol 54 is a synthetic fluid designed to provide reliable, consistent heat transfer performance over a long service life at maximum bulk temperatures up to 280°C (540°F).

Therminol 55 is a synthetic heat transfer fluid used in moderate-temperature applications. Therminol 55 fluid is designed for use in nonpressurized/low-pressure, indirect heating systems. It delivers efficient, dependable, uniform process heat with no need for high pressures.

Therminol 62 is a synthetic heat transfer fluid whose chemistry is custom contoured for high-performance, high-purity, low-pressure and exceptional thermal stability.

Therminol SP is a synthetic heat transfer fluid used in moderate-temperature applications. Therminol SP fluid is designed for use in nonpressurized/low-pressure, indirect heating systems. It delivers efficient, dependable, uniform process heat with no need for high pressures.
