Clariant Mining Services can provide a complete dust control management service, from product selection to application to dust monitoring
Dust from mining operations can give rise to a number of challenges, the most obvious being environmental pollution of the mine site and nearby communities. To this can be added the potential for damage to equipment, safety risks due to poor visibility, increased maintenance of unpaved roads and the combustion risk from coal dust.
Clariant Mining Services can offer a tailored dust control programme encompassing chemical dust control agents, application techniques and specialised equipment, and performance management through frequent airborne dust monitoring.
Arkomon® polymer emulsions or surfactants are selected for maximum dust control effect and minimum environmental impact. Application of the dust control solution is carefully controlled to minimise the use of both chemical and water. Performance is managed to ensure compliance with local clean air requirements/ legislation.
