Bitumen oil construction manufacturer plant. Bitumen market in Russia. Let's name the types of these compounds

In September 2016, the market of the Customs Union expects a transition to a new bitumen production standard (GOST 33133-2014). Formally, the standard is voluntary, but its observance can be included among the mandatory requirements for participation in tenders for government orders. According to the calculations of the Ministry of Energy, the total investment required by Russian companies to modernize their bitumen production to meet the new requirements will be at least 2.5 billion rubles. At the moment, manufacturers seem to be aiming to make the most of existing capacity while they can.

Russian enterprises have shown a steady upward trend in bitumen production since last September. According to the study, in In 2016, the production index was positive compared to the previous month for 3 out of 4 months. The volume of bitumen production in April 2016 in physical terms increased by 43% y/y.

Bitumen finds a variety of uses in construction, in the production of materials such as asphalt concrete, building insulation, roofing. Today, bitumen is most often obtained during the processing of coal, oil, shale tars and peat extracts.

The cumulative increase in production volumes for 4 months of 2016 amounted to more than 50% y/y. IndexBox experts note that the growth in bitumen production is mainly due to stable demand from the road construction sector, where bitumen is used as a key raw material in the composition of the road surface. Moreover, according to Rosavtodor, the market still remains in short supply.

Dynamics of bitumen production in Russia

The dynamics of bitumen production in value terms differs from the dynamics of production in physical terms, being characterized by a fall. Thus, in January-April 2016, the volume of production in value terms was 50% lower than y/y. According to a study conducted by IndexBox specialists, a significant decrease in bitumen prices is associated with fluctuations in oil prices, as well as an increase in supply in the market.

Volume of bitumen production in Russia

In the structure of the bitumen market, the main volume is still accounted for by road bitumen: in 1 sq. In 2016, 812.6 thousand tons were produced, which is 68% of the total production volume in physical terms. The absence of structural changes in the production of products by product categories is due to stable demand from the consuming industries.

Bitumen is produced by most refineries. Among the most important enterprises involved in their production, one can single out LLC LUKOIL-NIZHEGORODNEFTEORGSINTEZ, LLC LUKOIL-PERMNEFTEORGSINTEZ, LLC LUKOIL-VOLGOGRADNEFTEPERERABOTKA, JSC GAZPROMNEFT - MOSCOW REFINERY, as well as divisions of NK Rosneft - Angarsk Oil Refinery, Achinsk refinery, Novokuibyshevsk refinery, Syzran refinery, etc.

Bitumen market in Russia: production geography

The largest volume of production among all federal districts falls on the Volga Federal District: in January-April 2016, 599 thousand tons of bitumen were produced there, which is 33% of the total volume. In second place with a share of 32% is the Southern Federal District, in third place is the Central Federal District with a share of 25%. Together, these federal districts account for 91% of Russian production in January-April 2016, while in Q4. In 2015, the same districts accounted for a combined 94%. The stable distribution of shares in the total production volume shows the even intra-annual use of capacities in the key districts of production.

In 2016, the Ministry of Economic Development estimates the volume of oil production at the level of 538 million tons. Despite the economic attractiveness of crude oil exports compared to petroleum products, oil exports are expected to decline (99.4% by 2015) due to global oil market trends. Against this background, the volume of oil supplies to Russian refineries in 2016 will slightly decrease (99.6% by 2015). In the current economic situation, the Ministry of Economic Development expects a decrease in production by 2019 to 532 million tons.

The decrease in oil refining margins under the current tax conditions, the consequences of the deteriorating economic situation in the country, as well as the change in the timing and pace of refinery modernization indicated by companies, according to the Ministry of Economic Development, will have an impact on investment activity in the industry and lead to a further decrease in investment in the production of petroleum products in 2016. Starting in 2017, on the contrary, a slight increase is expected.

The production of asphalt mix, as an independent segment of industrial production, has developed relatively recently. With the development of the oil refining industry, it became possible to replace natural bitumen (judesa resin) with products of distillation (cracking) of oil. Asphalt production, despite its apparent simplicity, is a rather complex technological process that requires high-quality technical solutions and strict adherence to technological regimes.

The production of the mixture is based on the process of enveloping natural stone of a certain fraction (crushed stone) with bitumen. When a mineral additive (concrete) is added, an asphalt concrete mixture is created from which another type of coating is obtained. Concrete is added in the form of a solution or in the form of crushed concrete production waste. The importance of compliance with the technical conditions of production is evidenced by bringing GOST 9128-2009 in accordance with European standards and its mandatory application by seven CIS countries.

The main feature of grading asphalt plants is productivity (mixture volume/weight per unit time), which affects the layout and placement of the plant. There are the following types of plants.

Stationary plants

The productivity of such plants is tens/hundreds of tons per hour. They use multi-bunker mixture preparation systems with automated dosing (transportation) systems for raw and finished materials. A high level of process automation allows taking into account daily, weather and seasonal fluctuations in the needs of road workers in the working mixture. Choosing a location for such a plant is a serious technical and economic task that requires taking into account many factors: from the cost and availability of raw materials (energy, etc.) to solving logistical (transport) problems.

mobile factories

Designed to ensure the construction of long-distance road facilities at a sufficient distance from large industrial hubs. This is a reduced copy of a stationary modular plant, the design of which provides for the possibility of dismantling and transferring to a prepared site. The degree of mechanization and automation of technological processes is at the level of stationary, as are the requirements for product quality. Mobile plants are the most flexible and efficient production model capable of solving most road construction tasks.

Mobile factories

This is a variant of a mobile plant. The difference lies in equipping the plant modules with their own wheels, which allow the plant to be transported by tractors without the use of additional equipment (platforms). It is used to solve problems of local significance.

Asphalt concrete plants of any model are very promising objects for investment, but they require serious study in terms of assessing the prospects for the development of the road network in each specific case in relation to the region.

It is difficult to imagine modern construction, both roads and buildings, without the use of bitumen. Its widest application in these areas is determined by the unique properties of the material:

heating leads to the fact that it becomes more ductile, almost any building materials are wetted by it;
when cooled, it thickens, gradually turning into a monolithic solid structure along with the fillers included in it;
hydrophobic, which is transferred to fillers and contact media after impregnation, this predetermines the use of bitumen for waterproofing.

The raw materials for the production of bitumen include materials containing substances with high viscosity, asphaltene components. They are obtained from the waste generated during oil refining. The fossil natural component of the resins is extracted by the method of physical impact on the bitumen-containing rock. Most often, this is the treatment of the rock with high-temperature water vapor. At the same time, the viscosity of the components decreases, and in this way they are washed out of the rock.

The described technology is classical, but at present, instead of natural production, the most common technology is the production of oil bitumen by industrial enterprises from waste generated during crude oil refining.

Naphthenic and naphthenic-aromatic oils during vacuum distillation give the product tar, which is the basis for the production of bitumen. If special additives are introduced into its composition, then a substance with high performance characteristics is obtained, which is used as bitumen. The processing of paraffinic oil produces a lot of useful waste, and the resulting tar is mixed with special components and sent to the reactor for oxidation.

During the vacuum distillation of fuel oil and the subsequent deasphalting of the oil components of oil, by-products of the tar composition are obtained. Our country has huge reserves of oil with a high content of bitumen, but the leading place in the production of bitumen is occupied by the oxidation method.

Taking into account the fact that Russia still lags behind the leading world powers in terms of the length of high-quality roads, opening a bitumen production plant in Russia is a very profitable and currently in demand enterprise.

Composition of bitumen

The composition determines the further use of bitumen. It consists of 14% hydrogen and 70% carbon, the rest is impurities of oxygen, sulfur and other chemical elements. To put it simply, it is carbon with various additives. Its properties are affected not so much by its elemental composition as by the types of hydrogen-carbon compounds determined by the bitumen production technology.

Let's name the types of these compounds:

an oil component that provides the material with fluidity;
resinous inclusions that give the product elasticity;
asphaltene compounds, due to which bitumen has viscosity.

The content of oils in bitumen in relation to its total mass reaches 60%, which is the predominant share. The higher this share ratio, the greater the material's penetrating ability in relation to other media. It contains much less resins, usually their amount does not exceed 30%. Resins are ductile, and their density is much higher than that of oils. Resins are solid, viscous and semi-liquid, their viscosity is determined by temperature. The higher it is, the lower the viscosity of the resins and the bitumen itself. With sufficient heating in a bitumen plant, a user-friendly liquid bitumen can be obtained.

Production equipment

Taking into account what is used as a feedstock, various industrial equipment for the production of bitumen is used. These are various boilers and furnaces, other devices. To make it convenient to transport the material from the manufacturer to the place of use, it is initially stored mainly in solid form. The storage of bitumen does not pose any particular problems at average ambient temperatures. Only in hot weather does it soften greatly and this significantly complicates loading and transportation operations. Most often, bitumen is stored in briquettes. But in order to use it in road and industrial construction, it is necessary to heat solid pieces to the temperature at which they will take the required viscosity. Usually they are heated to a liquid state and only then used in various technological operations.

Installations for melting at enterprises of road and construction specifics not only bring the raw material into a liquid state, but also maintain it in such a readiness for use for an arbitrarily long time. These units are manufactured in mobile and stationary versions. The mobile installation is moved by car, while the stationary one always remains in one place. But the productivity is higher for a stationary installation, since it has larger bitumen tanks and more powerful heating furnaces.

According to the method of heating, all furnaces for the production of bitumen are distinguished into direct heating devices, indirect heaters with coolant circulation and their combined versions. It is also necessary to distinguish installations for heating road and construction bitumen according to the defining features of its production. There are such installations in which the pipes with the heat carrier are located throughout the volume of the tank, while in other installations the heating pipes are located only in the receiving chamber. Those installations in which the heaters are located around the perimeter are better. After all, in them the raw material melts evenly throughout the volume and at the same time the entire contents of the container come into operational readiness.

Also, bitumen heating plants are divided according to the method of loading solid raw materials into them - these are devices with loading from above and from the side. Lateral loading is better because raw materials can be fed into the plant both manually and with the help of a special conveyor or loader.

Types of bitumen for construction

In the construction industry, this material is used for the preparation of various mastics, for waterproofing foundation work and for roofing. Basically, these are substances obtained during the refining of oil. Also, construction bitumen has found the widest application in the construction of roads.

According to the indicated areas of application, a simple classification of this building material can be made:

for use in the construction of buildings and structures;
for the production of roofing works;
for road construction.

The domestic industry produces liquid, semi-solid and solid bitumen for the construction segment of the industry. Liquid is also divided into several classes according to the thickening rate.

Construction bitumen grades from BN 50/50 to BN 90/10 are used for waterproofing works. This raw material is still widely used in the manufacture of roofing materials, such as hydroisol, luberite, isoplast, etc. In each of the listed materials, special additives of the polymer composition are introduced into the raw material to increase strength, frost resistance and other important operational parameters. All polymeric bitumens used in construction are combustible, their spontaneous ignition temperature is 368 °C. With the available source of open fire, they light up already at 230 ° C.

In order to waterproof the foundations of buildings and structures, special insulating bitumen is used. It is able to slowly harden and at the same time retain its properties for a long time, tightly binding to the surface of reinforced concrete products.

Road bitumen is used to impregnate the top road layer and to pre-treat the ground before asphalt is laid. In this specificity, both liquid and viscous formulations are used. They are also combustible, the flash point of the material at an external open source is in the range from 60 to 120 °C.

Bitumen for road construction

In the construction of roads, a polymeric bitumen product is used, now in Russia the production of road bitumen is increasing, but still, in terms of the volume of material produced, it lags far behind world indicators.

Such installations are characterized by high energy consumption, their electrical power reaches 200 kW or more. Due to the high cost of electricity, many asphalt concrete plants cannot organize the modification of bitumen with binder polymer compositions.

Bitumen can be safely attributed to products with seasonal demand, this is primarily determined by the seasonality of road works in our country. The price of bitumen per ton rises sharply in summer and falls in winter. Due to the fact that this material is produced from oil, the instability of oil quotations on the world market also has a significant impact on the cost of bitumen.

Also, the price of bitumen strongly depends on the remoteness of the consumer from the production complexes, this is associated with considerable costs for transporting the material both in liquid state in containers and in solid form when solid bitumen is transported in bags.

Bitumen trade

Currently, bitumen trade in Russia is steadily increasing. Selling companies mainly organize the sale of bitumen in bulk, but do not refuse from the retail trade of this material of wide and steady demand.

Consider the prices for bituminous raw materials that have been established in the domestic market at the present time:

Analyzing the above table, we can conclude that the cost of bitumen is currently quite high. All available old stocks and bitumen waste generated during production and transportation are used. This allows the oil producing companies to earn an estimated profit, but hinders the development of road construction in the country.

What is bitumen is known not only by builders, but also by many consumers. This material was widely used several decades ago for covering small outbuildings, arranging a moisture barrier between the foundation and the wall of buildings, and for many other purposes. But pure bitumen is not the best option for the production of roofing. After all, it lends itself to aging, becomes brittle and hard under the influence of oxygen and sunlight. As a result, cracks appear on the surface, and it loses its waterproof function. To get rid of these shortcomings, oxidized bitumen is used for the production of roofing.

Production features

The production of bitumen is a complex technological process that is carried out on the territory of oil refineries. The raw material is oil, and not one grade, but several, which are carefully selected. The quality of the finished product depends on the quality of the source material.

The production of oxidized bitumen is a forced process and is carried out in a special plant. The feedstock is heated in it and oxygen is passed through it. The feedstock can be fuel oil, tar, cracked residues, semi-tar, or a mixture thereof.

Advantages and Features

The consequence of the oxidation process will be the acquisition by the product of characteristics important for operation, which include:

Changing the heat resistance of the coating from the initial +45 degrees to the final +120 degrees.
By stopping all chemical processes, the roofing product acquires the necessary rigidity.
Higher fire resistance than non-oxidized counterpart.
Lack of emission of vapors and unpleasant smells when heated.
Due to the improved quality, basalt granulate does not crumble from the surface.
The coating retains its appearance, does not swell or crack.
Improved wind resistance. Due to the fact that the rigidity of the material has increased, the coating easily resists even the strongest winds.

The oxidation process will not end there - it will continue after the installation of the roof for a certain period during its operation.

Disadvantages of oxidized bitumen

Unfortunately, the oxidation process gives the coating some disadvantages:

Fragility at sub-zero temperatures - the material hardens in the cold, becomes rigid. Therefore, it cannot be used for mounting. This is a significant disadvantage for professional builders who have to work not only in the summer.
Due to the fragility of the canvas, if necessary, it is difficult to repair it in the cold - at the slightest load, for example - it is enough to stand on the roof, it begins to crack and break.

Production of modified bitumen

What is modified bitumen? This is the name of the material, in the initial mixture of which a certain type of modifying substance is added. This is necessary so that the finished product for roofing can withstand various weather conditions. What does the addition of modifiers give? Mixing bitumen with polymer added in the correct proportion gives the final product important performance properties:

UV resistant.
Good adhesion.
The ability to keep a good shape.
Resistant to sudden changes in temperature.

Many consumers wonder if the added polymer is harmful to people and the environment. The following fact testifies to how safe the thermoplastic is - after several years of operation, fungi, moss and other biological organisms begin to grow on the surface of the coating. To destroy them, it is enough to treat the surface with any substance, the basis for the creation of which was copper sulfate.

Comparison of characteristics of oxidized and modified bitumen

The properties of oxidized bitumen and sbs-modified are largely the same. This is a long-term operation, excellent appearance. But there are also differences. To understand which of the materials has the best performance and is more suitable for a particular object, it is necessary to compare their characteristics and consider the differences.

Description of characteristics	oxidized bitumen	modified bitumen
Temperature range at which operation is possible.	from -55° C to +120° C.	From -25° to +120° C. At lower temperatures, the coatings begin to crack and crumble. This leads to a violation of tightness and a change in the appearance of the roof.
	High adhesion. Due to this, the material has excellent wind resistance - even in strong winds it does not break off the roof. In addition, the granulate adheres perfectly to its surface.	Minimal adhesion, due to which the granulate can crumble.
Quality.	The final material is of high quality, independent of the quality of the raw material.	The quality of the finished roof depends entirely on the quality of the raw materials. If it did not have the required quality, in order to achieve a good quality of the final product, manufacturers have to use various stabilization additives.
Flexibility, elasticity	High rate	High rate, but only at positive temperatures.
The use of chemical modifying additives	Not provided	Used to extend the life of the roof.
Ecological cleanliness	Does not contain harmful or chemical substances. Therefore, it is considered safe for humans and the environment.	May emit harmful substances, although in small quantities.

Output: although the modified bitumen is cheaper, according to various indicators, it is slightly inferior to the oxidized counterpart.

Mounting Features

As they say about experienced builders, if the laying of each type of coating was carried out correctly, there are no significant differences in the behavior of the roof. But there is one important nuance. It is necessary to choose and install a coating from both materials, taking into account their characteristics and properties. So, in summer it is more convenient to work with modified bitumen - it has greater heat resistance and has proven itself well at high temperatures. If an oxidized analogue is used for installation, it is better to work with it in winter. It remains flexible even at very low temperatures.

Output: you can work with any material, if the work is carried out in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations and strictly follow all their instructions, the roofing can be used for many years, retaining its characteristics.

And what do the reviews of the owners of houses covered with similar material say about flexible tiles? The most important thing that each of them says is the high aesthetics of the coating and its reliability. After several years of operation, the surface remains intact and performs its function.

Types of modified bitumen

Depending on the type of modifier added, there are two types of modified bitumen:

SBS (rubber bitumen). To get it, rubber is added to the bituminous mass. Due to this, the mass changes its structure at the molecular level. Bituminous roofing made of material has higher flexibility and strength at sub-zero temperatures, and also acquires the ability to repeat all surface bends and even after significant stretching, return to its original state.
APP. This is the name of the mixture to which the polymer (atactic polypropylene) is added. Due to this, the finished canvas changes its plasticity with temperature changes (the higher the temperature, the higher the plasticity and vice versa). The added polymer has a low cost. Therefore, the bituminous roof obtained with its use costs less than with SBS additives.

Advantages and features of modified coatings

SBS modified material:

It has a high coefficient of elongation - the canvas can be stretched to a length greater than the original one by 20 times, and at the same time it will not collapse, but remain intact. For oxidized bitumen, this figure is much lower.
At temperatures below zero, the canvas retains flexibility and elasticity.
When bending, cracks do not appear on the canvas, even if the ambient temperature is below zero.

APP modified material:

Changes plasticity with temperature changes. The higher the thermometer index, the faster the plasticity improves, and vice versa - with a decrease in temperature, the flexibility of the coating sharply decreases.
The cost of coverage based on AMS modifiers has a lower cost than the SBS counterpart.

Disadvantages of a modified roof

Coating with APP-modifiers is not intended for use in regions where the temperature drops below -25 degrees in winter. It starts to crack and crumble. When applying a coating to the roof, it is necessary to work with it carefully. The material is completely inelastic, and if stretched, it does not return to its original state.

Due to the variety of bituminous roofing materials on the construction market, each consumer can choose the option at the most suitable price and with the characteristics that suit him.

Roads of Russia

According to the Federal Road Service of Russia, over the past two years, the volume of international traffic has increased by 25%. Of these: cargo turnover - 157 billion km, passenger traffic - 188 billion km. According to the composition of the Technical means: 3.2 million trucks, 0.5 million buses and 16 million cars.

Currently, the length of motor roads in Russia is 956 thousand km, of which 746 thousand km are paved roads. The backbone network is formed by public roads, their length is 571 thousand km. Of the total road network, main roads account for 3%, but provide more than 30% of all traffic. The length of roads with more than three lanes is 2.2 thousand km, if necessary - 12 thousand km. In 1996 - 1997, 12 - 15 thousand km were laid in the country per year. roads, the cost of work was estimated at 45 - 50 trillion. rub.

According to experts, to meet the needs of the country, the length of the road network should be 1,500 thousand km.

In 1991, the Law of the Russian Federation “On Road Funds in the Russian Federation” was adopted. In 1994, the federal target program "Roads of Russia" was approved, which was given the status of a presidential one the following year. These documents determined the prospects for the development of roads until the end of the millennium.

According to experts, in order to achieve the minimum density of the road network required for the country, about 560 billion rubles (denominated) will be required.

Target road taxes became the basis for the implementation of the program. According to the mentioned documents, two funds are formed to finance the development of roads: the Federal Road Fund (its funds are directed to the maintenance of federal highways) and the Territorial Road Funds (their funds are directed to roads belonging to the territories).

The taxes that serve as a source of the formation of the FDF are as follows: for the sale of fuels and lubricants (25% of the sales amount); for the use of roads; for the purchase of vehicles.

Territorial road funds are formed from taxes on road users, on vehicle owners and on the purchase of vehicles.

In April 1997, the Federal Road Service of Russia was created, its main task should be to control the targeted use of the road fund.

In 1997, Russia established a single base tax rate for road users for legal entities. It amounted to 2.5% of the company's revenue. Half of it was to be transferred to the FDF, from where it was distributed among the regions, and the other half was to replenish the TDF. At the same time, the subjects could form the last half themselves, changing the rate up or down.

In March 1998, in the “Federal Budget of Russia for 1998”, while maintaining the tax rate for road users at a rate of 2.5%, the distribution of the tax to road funds was changed: 2% goes to TDF and 0.5% to FDF. The share of road user tax in road funds is 90%. The Federal Road Fund of the Russian Federation for 1998 was approved in the amount of 21,328.0 billion rubles, the distribution of subventions and subsidies between the constituent entities of the Russian Federation for the development, maintenance and repair of public roads in the amount of 6250 billion rubles was approved.

The Federal Road Service plans to make more than 30 toll roads in Russia. Five toll routes are currently being developed. In the near future, you will have to pay for the use of roads of the north-western direction leading to the exit to the border with Finland through St. Petersburg and Vyborg, the western direction towards Belarus Moscow-Smolensk-Minsk, the south - to the exit to the Black Sea coast and the east direction through Ryazan and Nizhny Novgorod.

In 1997, for the celebration of the 850th anniversary of Moscow, all the main highways of the city, streets and squares were repaired. 31.6 million square meters of pavement were repaired. Reconstruction of 17 bridges, three underground passages, construction of 10 pedestrian crossings over the road.

In 1997, 26 km of the Moscow Ring Road (MKAD) was introduced, with the commissioning of this section, the reconstruction (expansion to 10 lanes) of the MKAD from Volgogradsky Prospect in the south of the capital to Leningradskoye Highway in the northwest was completed. A new interchange has been introduced at the intersection of the Moscow Ring Road and Shchelkovskoye Highway.

In September 1998, the reconstruction of the Moscow Ring Road was completed along the entire 109 km ring. Five additional interchanges have been built, and 78 treatment facilities have been built to keep the road in good condition. Gene. The contractor is Transstroy Corporation.

A feature of the development of roads in the Moscow region is that all federal highways connecting Moscow with the regions pass through the territory of the region. Thus, federal programs for the reconstruction of highways make it possible to repair most of the roads at the expense of the federal budget.

The reconstruction of the highway MKAD - Kashira has begun. This section of 103 km is planned to be paid. The repair is carried out according to the European standard with the placement of camping sites and recreation sites for every 10 km of the route, and gas stations for every 40 km. Financing - on a commercial basis. It is planned to issue special bonds.

The reconstruction of the Khimki-Klin highway is underway. This section, 61 km long, is also planned to be paid.

The construction of the Moscow-Minsk highway has begun. This highway is also planned to be paid. The Italian company SPEA, which specializes in toll highways, is involved in the design of the roads.
