<strong>Scorpio</strong> <strong>Engineering</strong> <strong>Private</strong> <strong>Limited</strong> established in 1983, is a technology based<br />
engineering and manufacturing company in the area of Dry Bulk Solids Handling Systems. With dense<br />
and dilute phase pneumatic conveying as its core expertise developed over 20 years of experience,<br />
<strong>Scorpio</strong> is now a single source turnkey supplier of technology and systems to all bulk handling<br />
industries worldwide.<br />
For the cement and fly ash industries, <strong>Scorpio</strong> has developed technology, expertise and experience in<br />
the following areas:<br />
� Bagged Cement Ship Loaders � High Capacity Screw Conveyors<br />
� Bulk Trucks � Open Truck Unloaders<br />
� Cement Bagging Plants (Jumbo bags and small bags) � Road, Sea and Waterway Distribution<br />
� Complete Cement Terminals � Self Unloading Ships<br />
� Dome Storage � Silo Storage<br />
� Flat Storage � Ship Loaders and Unloaders<br />
� Floating Terminals � Transhipment at Port Anchorage<br />
Ship Loaders and<br />
Unloaders<br />
A unique feature of <strong>Scorpio</strong> Ship<br />
Unloaders is a low cost modular<br />
manufacturing philosophy. The<br />
Unloader can be offered in a modular<br />
arrangement with the following<br />
options:<br />
� Pneumatic Suction and Screw Outload<br />
at jetty<br />
� Pneumatic Suction and Pneumatic<br />
Discharge to far storage<br />
� Screw Evacuation and Pneumatic<br />
Discharge to far storage<br />
� Screw Evacuation and Screw Outload<br />
to jetty and pipe conveyor to<br />
far storage<br />
With this unique combination, the<br />
Unloader offers complete flexibility at<br />
the dockside enabling filling of Bulk<br />
Tankers, filling of far silos and packing<br />
of cement with the same main<br />
machine. All parts and components<br />
are engineered for heavy-duty<br />
operation considering the demanding<br />
requirement of continuous ship<br />
unloading for quick ship turnarounds.<br />
Where the far silos are at distances<br />
more than 500 metres from the jetty,<br />
Mobile Pneumatic Ship Unloaders<br />
pneumatic discharge will use more<br />
power than conventional belt conveying. <strong>Scorpio</strong> offers a pipe conveyor to transport<br />
the cement from jetty to far silos beyond 500 metres. The pipe conveyor is highly cost<br />
effective since it is fully covered during the conveying of the cement to the silos and<br />
costs less than conventional belt conveyors.<br />
<strong>Scorpio</strong> Ship Loaders use enclosed belt conveying technology and telescopic loading<br />
spouts to enable dust free filling of bulk cement into the holds of the export ship.<br />
Bagged cement can also be loaded with these loaders with modular chute<br />
attachments to the unit.<br />

Storage<br />
Cement storage can be in silos, domes or flat storage depending upon the application. <strong>Scorpio</strong> can<br />
offer steel and concrete silos, dome storage as well as flat storage. Storage capacities can be from 10000<br />
to 100000 tonnes. <strong>Scorpio</strong>'s Flat Storage<br />
system at Galle Port in Sri Lanka handles<br />
15000 tonnes of two varieties of cement.<br />

Self unloading ships and floating terminals<br />
Where the use of dock based unloaders is not possible and where cement<br />
needs to be distributed over a number of coastal destinations, <strong>Scorpio</strong><br />
offers self-unloading ships and barges. The ships are retrofitted with<br />
fluidized floors. Cement is sucked out from the holds to deck mounted<br />
receiving silos from where it is discharged or pumped out to the dockside<br />
for loading into Bulk Tankers or to far silos.<br />

The self-unloaders can also double as floating terminals whereby the<br />

cement from the holds is fed into a packing plant within the ship (one of<br />
the holds is converted to a packing plant). These floating terminals discharge bagged cement as against bulk cement in the self-unloaders. The<br />
bagged cement can be discharged from the side of the ship to dockside pallets or directly loaded into trucks parked on the jetty. These dumb<br />
barges are gearless vessels with shallow draft and can be berthed in low draft areas.<br />

Distribution<br />
With the major cost content<br />
of cement being in its<br />
distribution, optimum<br />
methods of cement<br />
distribution are required to<br />
ensure that cement<br />
BARGELOADER<br />
manufacturers remain<br />
profitable. <strong>Scorpio</strong> can offer a<br />
combination of road, sea and<br />
river movement of cement using bulk tankers, self-unloading ships and river barges. River loading and unloading terminals are designed,<br />
engineered and fitted to suit each location. Especially in India with its long coastline and also with the national waterways now being developed by<br />
the Government, there are major opportunities for low cost cement distribution using an optimum combination of road, waterway and coastal<br />
cement transport routes.
Complete Cement Terminals<br />
The technology and expertise developed by <strong>Scorpio</strong> can be integrated into a<br />
complete cement terminal covering unloading of bulk cement ships, conveying to<br />
cement silos or other storage and then packing into bags or trucks for distribution.<br />
<strong>Scorpio</strong> can offer the complete design, engineering, manufacture, installation and<br />
commissioning of small to medium sized cement terminals on a turnkey basis with a<br />
single source responsibility. Such projects also cover feasibility studies, terminal<br />
layouts, ship size recommendations, storage specifications and methods, packing<br />
plants, etc. <strong>Scorpio</strong> has already supplied a number of such medium sized terminals on<br />
turnkey basis.<br />
Open Truck Unloaders<br />
<strong>Scorpio</strong> has developed the Open Truck Unloader specifically for<br />
the fly ash handling industry where the low cost of fly ash<br />
prevents its handling and transport using conventional cement<br />
transport methods. The Bulk Tankers used for cement transport<br />
prove extremely expensive for handling fly ash. Based on the<br />
request of a number of cement companies which are now<br />
mixing fly ash into cement at up to 30%, the Open Truck<br />
Unloader offers a low cost solution to fly ash handling. The fly<br />
ash is filled in a specially designed flexible 'superbag' with fits<br />
into a regular road transport truck. This bag is capable of<br />
holding 10 to 15 tonnes of fly ash. On arrival at the cement<br />
plant from the power stations, the bag is opened at the top and<br />
the Open Truck Unloader sucks out the fly ash and discharges it<br />
directly to the fly ash silo in the cement plant.<br />

High Capacity Screw Conveyors<br />
As part of terminal engineering, high capacity Screw Conveyors are required to feed cement from silos<br />
to packing plant, hoppers, etc. <strong>Scorpio</strong> has built heavy duty Screw Conveyors of 500 TPH capacity with<br />
12m lengths without hanger bearings. Such technology and design expertise comprise key strengths<br />
of <strong>Scorpio</strong> which is a technology supplier and not just a hardware or equipment vendor.<br />
Transhipment at port anchorage<br />
Ship Unloaders can be mounted on pontoons for transhipping cement and fly ash from river<br />
barges to Panamax vessels and vice-versa. <strong>Scorpio</strong> offers complete design through<br />
installation and commissioning of such pontoon based systems for transhipment at<br />
anchorage. This enables cement companies to despatch/receive large cement ships of<br />
Panamax sizes to/from the markets. Berthing charges are minimised by transhipping<br />
products from these large ships to smaller barges which can then sail to coastal and inland<br />
market locations.<br />
