EBS-GNQ Special Electronic Intelligent High Precision Burner for The Asphalt Mixing Plant

The EBS-GNQ Series represents a new generation of intelligent combustion systems tailored for asphalt mixing facilities that require continuous operation, precise thermal balance, and dynamic fuel management.

Unlike conventional mechanical burners that depend on fixed mechanical linkages, the EBS-GNQ platform leverages digital proportional control, autonomous PLC-based regulation, and adaptive output modulation to maintain consistent process temperatures even when feed moisture or production load fluctuates.

Rather than functioning merely as a burner, the EBS-GNQ acts as a process-control component within the entire drying and heating sequence of an asphalt plant.

Electronic Proportional Control Architecture

At the heart of the EBS-GNQ platform is a digitally driven proportional adjustment system. Fuel and combustion air are not simply delivered in fixed ratios; they are continuously analyzed, recalculated, and balanced through PLC algorithms that interpret real-time production data.

This modernized control approach provides several operational advantages:

• Extremely wide modulation capability（up to 1:10）, allowing the system to respond instantly to high or low thermal demands

• Seamless power transition when production shifts between warm-up, steady operation, and peak load

• Accurate thermal alignment that offsets inconsistent aggregate moisture or weather-related variations

• Stable flame characteristics from burner ignition to long-duration full-load running

Instead of fighting production changes, the system automatically synchronizes combustion behavior with the asphalt plant’s operational rhythm, ensuring a smoother, more predictable drying curve.

High-Precision Performance Under Real Process Conditions

Asphalt production environments are rarely stable—aggregate moisture, drum airflow, material feed rate, and ambient temperature can shift rapidly.

The EBS-GNQ responds with continuous micro-adjustments, maintaining a consistent thermal profile throughout the drying phase.

Enhanced high-precision performance translates directly into production value:

• Uniform mixture quality due to fewer thermal fluctuations

• Lower energy waste, as the burner avoids excessive fuel input during moisture spikes

• Minimized thermal stress on mechanical parts such as the drying drum and transfer components

• Improved long-term stability, allowing the plant to operate with fewer manual interventions

Precision is therefore not just an added feature—it’s a direct contributor to operational reliability, fuel savings, and asphalt quality consistency.

Multi-Fuel Adaptability Without Sacrificing Control Accuracy

The EBS-GNQ platform is engineered to work with a wide spectrum of fuels, including:

• Natural Gas (NG)

• Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG)

• Light Oil

• Heavy Oil

• Hybrid and mixed-fuel arrangements

Where traditional burners often require hardware adjustments when switching fuels, EBS-GNQ handles this through algorithm-driven compensation, allowing:

• Smooth transitions between fuel types

• Stable flame formation even with lower-grade or variable-viscosity fuels

• Optimized combustion efficiency based on active fuel properties

• Operational continuity when supply chains or price conditions shift unexpectedly

This makes the burner particularly valuable for asphalt plants in remote regions, developing markets, or areas with changing seasonal fuel access.

Integrated Compact Structure with Mobile Deployment

The hardware layout of the EBS-GNQ series adopts a densely packed modular structure where fuel circuits, control components, and mechanical assemblies are arranged for efficient use of space.

To enhance day-to-day handling and maintenance, the burner includes a mobile wheel-based mounting frame, allowing technicians to reposition or access the unit with minimal downtime.

Key practical advantages include:

• Fast on-site alignment with the burner port

• Rapid relocation between plant modules or projects

• Improved maintenance comfort, enabling easier component inspection

• Simplified piping and cable routing, reducing installation errors

This configuration is especially beneficial for plants prioritizing short installation timelines or frequent operational adjustments.

Energy Optimization & Electrical Efficiency

The EBS-GNQ employs variable-frequency fan technology, allowing the airflow delivery to match actual combustion demand rather than running at constant maximum speed. This shift significantly reduces unnecessary electrical use.

Additional energy-related benefits include:

• 30–40% reduction in annual fan energy consumption compared with fixed-speed systems

• Higher combustion completeness, made possible by independent fuel/air computation

• Approximately 2% efficiency gain through optimized oxygen flow control

• Lower carbon footprint, supporting modern environmental operation standards

Over extended operation cycles—common in asphalt production—these energy savings are financially meaningful and environmentally beneficial.

Applicable Mixing Plant Capacity

The EBS-GNQ burner family is engineered to serve a full spectrum of asphalt mixing plant capacities:

• 500 / 1000 / 1500 / 2000 / 3000 / 4000 / 5000 / 6000

Corresponding heat outputs range from:

• 4150 kW → 41500 kW

This structured power ladder ensures:

• Precise fit for small, mid-sized, and large continuous/batch plants

• Consistent temperature control even at elevated throughput levels

• Straightforward integration into new plant designs or modern retrofits

• A unified burner family capable of scaling with plant growth

Rather than offering isolated models, the EBS-GNQ forms a complete, scalable combustion solution.
