COAL DUST SUPPRESSION SYSTEM
Coal mining poses several explicit hazards, including breakdowns, flooding, and hazardous blasts. Dust created by coal handling plants and mining activities is a significant hazard as it can cause breathing-related issues for people, as well as maintenance issues for machinery.
Additionally, dust can create a potentially hazardous environment. Every year, an unacceptable number of people are injured or killed in underground coal mining accidents or suffer from long-term health problems due to exposure to coal dust.
High concentrations of coal dust in mines and processing plants can cause pneumoconiosis, explosions, injuries, and financial loss. Regulations limit respirable coal dust to 3 mg/m³. Coal dust is generated during drilling, blasting, loading, transport, storage, and processing, with moisture content varying by location.
Benefits of dust suppression: reduces respirable dust by 80%+, minimizes visual dust, limits water use, prevents chute blockages, improves housekeeping, and increases safe work areas.
Synergy Spray Systems provides comprehensive dust control solutions for coal mines and handling plants, including haul road suppression, dry fog systems for tipplers and conveyors, and transfer point dust suppression technologies.
