2. RA 100 - The new dimension in use of RAP | © Ammann GroupJune, 18th 2012 Road construction in Europe and Australia 2 Many similarities Europe Australia 1.European market is extremely competitive Coal dust is used as fuel -> big reduction in energy cost High % of recycling -> big reduction in material cost Latest technologies -> reduction in operating cost 2.European Road Construction requires maximum flexibility Asphalt mix are adjusted to all kind of needs (>100 recipes) 3.European environmental standards are different CO, NOX, C, dust ( applicable at all location ). Wet washers/wet scrubbers are impossible to use in Europe Important differences
