Every time limestone is discharged into the hopper from a truck body, a dusty cloud is generated which spreads throughout the environment, limiting visibility in the area and dispersing material in the surrounding areas.
Installation of 6 AIROX GRC nebulizers to contrast the dust produced in the hopper in order to create a fog coverage capable of suffocating the dust generated during the unloading of the material. The dust, incorporated and "weighted" by the artificial fog produced by ECOFOG (micronisation of water), falls back into the hopper and is thus reintroduced into the production cycle. Thanks to AIROX technology, the supply of water necessary for micronization is infinitesimal: this means that the humidity values of the material are not modified. Thanks to the dedicated bracketing and fixing systems for ECOFOG, it was possible to easily insert the nebulization points along the perimeter of the hopper to produce an "umbrella" of fog that hinders the escape of dust from the hopper.
Working pressures:
- air 2.5÷3bar
- water 0.5÷1.5bar
ECOFOG not only allows the containment of dust, but allows the volatile material to be "recovered" by reintroducing it into the production cycle. Production without waste of material, with low energy consumption, with low dust emissions along the entire material handling chain
Typical applications:
- Cleaning and dust suppression in raw material storage areas
- Cleaning and dust suppression in the grinding and screening area
- Dust abatement during truck loading/unloading
- Dust abatement during the material park phase
- Dust suppression for high-level material unloading
