• Where in the past, states focussed their energies and resources on deicing wintry roads, new technologies have emerged that instead stress preventative anti-icing measures.
• Included as part of the five-year, $150 million Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP) begun in 1987, the anti-icing initiative (H-208) was carried out in nine states during a two-year period. The results of this showed that anti-icing techniques can be used effectively in the United States and depending upon the climate, the type and severity of storms, and the traffic anti-icing procedures could be accomplished with success. ...
• A two-year, post-SHRP, anti-icing test and evaluation project (TE28) was conducted during the winters of 1993-94 and 1994-95 to optimize the effectiveness of anti-icing operations and determine the conditions under which they are effective. ... The results of the testing has shown that chemical agents can be used much more effectively to prevent the bonding of the snow or ice to the pavement (anti-icing) than to destroy the bond once formed (deicing). It also showed the vast range of efficient use for the anti -icing operations under most climatical and storm conditions. In some cases anti-icing required less chemicals to be used for the same level of maintenance than deicing procedures. ... Anti-icing also reduced the need for abrasives.
• The idea was to pursue a preventative anti-icing methodology rather than the conventional, reactive deicing measures. ...
• Our studies showed that the chemicals now commercially available for snow and ice control have about the same anti-icing effectiveness, especially in liquid form. ...
• The anti-icing chemical must be applied to roadways 30 minutes to two hours before the precipitation begins. ...
• Another enormous advantage to employing anti-icing methodologies versus deicing involves the absence of abrasives. ... But, because anti-icing agents do not allow snow to bond with the pavement, abrasives are not needed. ...
• But application of the anti-icing chemical prior to precipitation beginning to fall begs another question: how does one know when it is time to begin anti-icing operations? Highway officials must depend on an array of data from different sources, including the Roadway Weather Information System (RWIS) and national and local weather forecasts. In addition to reporting dew point, humidity, air temperature, and wind velocity and direction, RWIS also reports road conditions via pavement sensors that monitor pavement temperatures and the amount of anti-icing chemicals present on the pavement. Once all of the data is fed into a central database, various modeling techniques can be used to accurately predict the start of ice formation on pavements and the times to start the anti-icing applications.
