In a world increasingly aware of the importance of sustainability and environmental protection, the port industry is taking significant steps towards innovation and the adoption of environmentally friendly practices. In this context, Espirales CHIA emerges as one of the main suppliers of sustainable industrial machinery.
Ecological hoppers are a key component in the supply and logistics chain in any seaport. Let's take a look at their features and benefits.
Features of the Ecological Hoppers
The ecological hopper is a primary system in port facilities for the transfer of materials during the loading and receiving of trucks, ships or wagons. At Espirales CHIA we manufacture customized ecological hoppers according to the needs of each port, using square, cylindrical or rectangular hoppers in one piece or independent modules. In order to guarantee a durable and high quality system, we use materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel and anti-wear steel. In addition, we offer the option of covering the inside of the hopper with non-stick or anti-abrasive materials.
The ecological hoppers are not only robust and durable, they are also designed with sustainability principles in mind. At Espirales CHIA, a pioneer in the manufacture of ecological hoppers, we have managed to revolutionize the port industry by combining technological innovation with an ecological approach. Our hoppers incorporate a "Flex-Flap" suction system, which minimizes potential dust emissions into the atmosphere. Our dust trapping system is installed at the top of the hopper, requiring no connection to a power supply. As the materials flow, a natural agitation is generated that promotes separation between the dust particles and the material. The process ends with a firm, solid column for easy unloading into trucks, railcars, storage tanks or open spaces. In addition, as less air is trapped, we are able to increase the space available for material loading.
Among the various benefits of the ecological hoppers, we highlight the reduction of cleaning and maintenance costs. Thanks to the Flex-Flap system, we reduce the degradation of materials and the need to capture and dispose of dust.
Tailor-made ecological hoppers
In Espirales CHIA we understand the importance of manufacturing customized industrial machinery to adapt to the needs and characteristics of each port. Through our design team we can guarantee the delivery of ecological hoppers with the specific characteristics of each customer's needs, always with the best quality. Thanks to our experience and dedication to design customized equipment, we have established ourselves as a leader in the port sector.
Promotes the health of operators and the port area
The installation of an ecological hopper in a seaport not only means a significant reduction in the emission of polluting particles into the atmosphere. It also means improving employee health and safety in the work area. The ecological hoppers represent both an environmental and a public health solution, thanks to the retention of polluting substances. At CHIA Spirals, we work daily to develop cleaner and more sustainable technologies. Our team of engineers provides innovative solutions to reduce the environmental impact during port operations.
In short, the mission of the ecological hoppers is to optimize the process of transferring materials during the reception and loading of ships, trucks or wagons. At the same time, they improve the health of the users and the population of the port area. At Espirales CHIA we address the environmental challenges derived from port activity through more sustainable industrial machinery.
