Leading Word: By the end of 2010, the mileage of highways in China had reached 74,000 kilometers, and it is expected that the scale of highways in China will reach 85,000 kilometers by the end of 2011. More than 70% of them are located in snow-covered areas. When Blizzard hits, it is imperative to remove snow quickly.

At present, the commonly used snow removal methods in China are the snow melting method and the mechanical method. The snow melting method relies mainly on sowing snow-melting agents. The main components of the snow melting agent are chemical agents, which pollute the environment. Compared with snow melting agent, mechanical snow removal method is more energy-saving and environmental protection, and has become the main development direction of snow removal at home and abroad. Industry insiders believe that the domestic snow removal machinery industry has broad prospects for future development and unlimited business opportunities.

The common practice in developed countries is to eliminate snow and supplement snow melting. For example, the current environmental protection practices in Europe and the United States are: after mechanical shoveling snow, carbon residue, coarse sand, and tree scum are used to prevent slipping on roads. For roads that need to be melted with snow melting agents, they must first be swept off the ground with a snow shovel. Most of the snow is collected, then sprinkle a small amount of snow melting agent to prevent the road from freezing.

With the continuous expansion of market demand, whether the provision of domestic equipment can fill the market gap in time? What efforts have domestic equipment made in environmental design? With the above problems, the reporter interviewed Fang Guohao, general manager/senior engineer of Zoomlion Sanitation Machinery Co., Ltd. at the Beijing BICES Engineering Machinery Exhibition.

In the interview, he first mentioned that Zoomlion Environmental Sanitation Machinery Co., Ltd. had participated in the disaster relief of the Wenchuan earthquake and the fight against the southern ice and snow disaster at that time, which triggered the community’s thinking about emergency equipment. Emergency equipment is very important for the social emergency handling, timely disposal and rescue. For this reason, Zoomlion invested a large amount of material and financial resources to conduct R&D on emergency equipment. This time, some events were brought to the Beijing BICES exhibition. List emergency equipment for display.

“As the city continues to expand and the process of urbanization continues to accelerate, people’s working radius and daily life radius are getting bigger and bigger. This way, when it comes to the severe weather such as rain and snow, it’s bound to be Life and work have caused great difficulties and even caused even more severe disasters. If our relevant departmental units are still not equipped with these emergency equipments, the handling of disasters will be in vain. Therefore, the establishment of emergency equipment should ensure the system. , equipped with necessary emergency equipment it can provide normal protection for people to work and life. This meaning is significant.” Fang always commented on the emergency equipment.

In the interview process, Fang introduced the needs of the rescue equipment and the technical aspects of the equipment to reporters. First mentioned that the impact of snow and ice weather in the north and the south on the road surface is not exactly the same, and the corresponding treatment will be different. The amount of snow in the south relative to the north is smaller or smaller, but once it encounters cold weather, it will form ice directly on the ground. This poses a great potential safety hazard for bridges and highway sections, especially in the On the roads in the mountains, local sections such as ramps, tunnel exits, and wind accumulations are easily caused by local icing due to moisture; however, when the snow in the north is cleared in the early stage, the ground is not prone to icing, and a large number of precautions are needed. Long snowfall.

To this end, the north should be equipped with a certain amount of heavy snow removal equipment, and the south should be equipped with certain deicing machinery! There is nothing to prepare for!
