Operational Tips: Asphalt Mix Plants Burner Turning

As public agencies tighten embodied carbon requirements for construction materials, asphalt manufacturers face growing pressure to reduce their manufacturing-stage emissions. This case study from Construction Partners Inc. (CPI) shows how tuning the burner at an Alabama hot mix asphalt plant cut energy intensity by 11% and reduced carbon emissions by 10%, moving the plant from the 40th–50th percentile to the 20th–40th percentile in NAPA's industry benchmark.
