On cycleways, walkways, patios, and roadways, a snowmelt system prevents the accumulation of snow and ice, or, more economically, only a portion of the area, such as a pair of tire tracks on a driveway that are 2.61 meters wide and 3.91 meters long, respectively. In areas with a lot of snow, it is also used to keep patios and driveways free of snow.
The "snow melt" system is intended to operate during a storm, reducing winter maintenance tasks like spreading de-icing salt or traction grit (sand) and shoveling or plowing snow. By avoiding the use of salts or other de-icing chemicals and the physical damage caused by winter service vehicles, a snowmelt system may extend the life of the concrete, asphalt, or under pavers.
To keep a horizontal surface free of snow and ice, many systems are completely automatic and do not require any human intervention.
Based on the heat source, there are three main types of systems: heat produced by electric resistance, conventional boiler or furnace heat, or hydrothermal heat Because there are fewer moving parts and no corrosive substances, electric snowmelt systems may require less upkeep than hydronic snowmelt systems. However, electric snowmelt systems typically have much higher operating costs.
TheGlobal snow melting systems marketaccounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
Electric heating cables, ground source heat pumps, tunnel water heat, solar-assisted electric heating cables, and boilers have been developed and tested at several expressway sections in South Korea in environmentally friendly snow melting methods that are presented in this study.
These snow melting systems have little impact on the environment (i.e., eco-melting) and are useful for quickly clearing away snow and preventing ice formation without causing long and frequent traffic hold-ups, as opposed to a traditional winter maintenance practice that relies on deicing or anti-icing chemicals.
Each eco-melting system's snow-melting performance is validated at full-scale test sites under various winter weather conditions, and a comparative evaluation of their construction and operation features is carried out. Additionally, cost analyses are carried out in light of the information gathered from the field experiments to ascertain whether or not each system is within reach.
Finally, in order to maximize the use of eco-melting systems on modern expressways, five types of expressway sectionsâhi-pass toll lane, regular toll lane, open section between tunnels, curved road, and bridgeâthat are susceptible to traffic accidents during the winter are given priority based on three aspectsâenvironment, affordability, and safety.
