Concrete & Silica Dust Control Systems
Problem: Large quantity of dust was being generated and blown across the adjacent highway as the concrete supplier was filling the trucks with cement, aggregate, and water. If handling Silica Dust, you may be interested in this video by the Department of Labor — "Deadly Dust" on YouTube.
Solution: Dust migration was eliminated by installing a partial enclosure to contain the contaminants and a baghouse to collect them. This acts as a concrete dust vacuum. Baghouse handles water as well as dust, and specialized media prevents the contaminant from freezing to the media in low temperatures.
Equipment: (1) Custom Containment Enclosure; (1) BT Baghouse Dust Collector
