Bitumen-Asphalt Testing Equipments

Asphalt-Bitumen Tests The solvent recovery device can be utilised to successfully recover the equipment used for the binder extraction test. Two stainless steel chambers make up the recovery unit; one holds the used, unclean solvent, and the other holds the cleaned, recovered solvent. A water cooling system and an electrical heater distil the solvent in the left-side chamber, which then drops into the second chamber and is ready for reuse. The heating components are automatically turned off by a temperature switch after the recovery procedure is complete.
