Dust Control for Processes; one day short course for industry
19 February 2020, Kent
An examination of the different methods for dust minimisation, capture and extraction.
Fine particle content can lead to flow or dust emission problems
The capture of airborne particles is a requirement that can span a wide range of industries. At a low concentration the fugitive material can take the form of airborne dust whilst at the other extreme the separation of particles from the air occurs with much higher concentrations (i.e. reception vessels for pneumatic conveying systems or systems vents). For either type of application good disentrainment efficiency is of paramount importance.
Aspects of control of fugitive particles or capture
There are four potential sequential approaches that can be employed. These are:
- Prevention during handling
- Containment
- Suppression
- Extraction and Collection

About us
Our Mission: To help industry to get it's powders and bulk materials to behave in the way they need them to!
Our Services:
- Consultancy
- Research
- Short Courses
Our Clients:
Industries involved in the processing of powders, particulates and other bulk solids materials from across the spectrum including (but not limited to) food and drink, pharmaceuticals, minerals, renewable energy, chemicals, plastics, recycling, metals, household goods, paper, cosmetics, textiles and rubber.
Ranging from small local companies to international conglomerates.
Our industrial-scale pilot plant is available to test a processing step, or mock up a whole handling process or logistics chain, at full scale or near full scale. This can be used to find and solve the problems off-line, then when you transfer the same process or material to your own or your customers' plant, you can be confident it will work!
Our Experts have over one hundred man-years of experience in solving bulk materials handling problems. Along with a team of Researchers they concentrate on nothing else but the needs of Industry – and are at your disposal.
Our location offers excellent transport links within the UK and EU enabling us to provide a prompt and flexible response to site visit requests and client meetings.
