LPG-fired heating of bitumen and aggregate for asphalt production - enabling smooth, durable road surfaces across India's infrastructure projects.
Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) plants heat and dry stone aggregate to 150-180°C, then blend it with hot bitumen at 140-160°C to produce asphalt for road construction. LPG is increasingly used as the burner fuel for drum mix and batch mix HMA plants because it delivers the high flame temperatures needed for drying wet aggregate while producing minimal emissions.
As India expands its national highway network under PMGSY, NH development programmes, and smart city projects, BPCL Commercial LPG provides a clean, efficient energy source for hot mix plants operating across urban and rural construction sites.
LPG delivers the intense, controllable flame needed to dry wet aggregate quickly for all-weather operation.
LPG-fired HMA plants produce significantly less SOx, particulates, and visible smoke - meeting CPCB norms.
LPG burners reach full temperature in minutes - no pre-heating required unlike furnace oil systems.
BPCL's 47.5 kg cylinders and bulk tanker supply support HMA plants at remote construction sites.
Bulk piped LPG supply is also available for high-volume consumers. Contact BPCL to discuss your requirements.
