ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for disposing of paper in an asphalt plant. The asphalt plant comprises a container for stone aggregate to be heated, a burner for producing a burner flame to provide thermal energy for heating the stone aggregate in the container, the burner being positioned relative to the container so that an open space is defined therebetween, and a supplementary burner positioned in the open space between the burner and the container. The supplementary burner includes a supplementary burner member for producing a supplementary burner flame to provide thermal energy for heating the stone aggregate in the container, an air supply connected to the supplementary burner member for providing a stream of air to the supplementary burner member, and a supply of paper connected to the air supply for introducing paper into the stream of air. The paper is introduced into the stream of air such that the paper is entrained in the stream of air and is substantially incinerated in the container. The asphalt plant may further comprise a grate which is spaced from the burners. The grate defines a plurality of openings such that hot air stream produced by burner flames passes through the openings, and such that the grate improves the thermal efficiency of the asphalt plant for heating the stone aggregate.
