Step 3

When the asphalt plant requires the fuel, automated valves and actuators send the LNG to the ambient-air vaporizer.

AAsphalt plants and aggregate facilities across the United States can benefit from the use of environmentally friendly and operationally beneficial natural gas at their sites. To pro vide this fuel option, Blue Roads Solutions LLC, Dallas, Texas, installs liquified natural gas (LNG) fuel storage and vaporization systems and delivers cryogenic LNG. Blue Roads offers a turn-key solution that is fully automated with fuel procurement and transportation logistics managed by Blue Roads employees. Here’s how the service works:

First, a Blue Roads transport trailer picks up a load of LNG from one of many suppliers across the United States.

The transport is driven to a customer location and offloaded into Blue Roads’ LNG system. Each system is customizable to meet the demands of mobile or stationary plants, with deliveries typically of 10,000 gallons.

LNG is then stored in cryogenic storage vessels until there is a demand for gas from the asphalt or aggregate facility. A series of automated valves and actuators, which Blue Roads monitors 24/7, facilitates the transfer of LNG from the cryogenic tank into an ambient-air vaporizer.

The ambient-air vaporizer re-gasifies the LNG by bringing the cryo genic liquid back up to ambient temperature.

Once the fuel is back in a gaseous state, it is piped over to the drum’s burner, hot oil heater burner, or to natural gas fueled generators.
