Bottom Ash Systems

Hydrobin® Dewatering Bin

Proven, reliable approach for dewatering bottom ash

  • Gravity-driven water/solids separation
  • Low initial cost, shortest lead time
  • No outage required for installation
  • Utilizes existing hydraulic transport system (no modifications to boiler)
  • Located remote from boiler, small footprint
  • Ideal for batch transport of bottom ash
  • Up to 72-hour storage capacity
