BITUMEN What they are and how they are produced Bitumens are products deriving from the refining of crude oil, in particular they represent the heaviest fraction obtained from it. At room temperature they have a solid consistency, a variable color from black to dark brown, and exhibit viscoelastic behavior, as well as excellent adhesion and waterproofing characteristics. In the context of bitumen production techniques, fractional distillation is to be considered a primary process. There refinery Alma Petroli has been specifically designed to produce distilled bitumens, through a “straight run” process, through the processing of asphaltenic and naphthenic crude oils. We produce road bitumen distillates directly obtained as bottom residue of the empty column, industrial bitumen and oxidized bitumen loose and in breads. The plant can also refine naphthenic crude oils from which naturally emulsifiable bitumens are obtained, particularly suitable for road pavements, bituminous emulsions and industrial applications. The Integrated Management System, which also includes UNI EN ISO 9001 certification, guarantees that the products meet high quality standards. Thanks to the continuous research and development and laboratory analytics, we produce highly specialized bitumens, also in accordance with the specifications requested by the customer .
