Tps mfg offers dry fog dust control system in collaboration with turbosonic inc, canada. The system nozzles are self cleaning and maintenance costs are low. No costly wetting agents and their controls are required. O&m costs of the dry fog system are much lower than bag house system or water + chemical spray systems. Dry fog systems are well suited for suppressing any kind and level of dust including hydrophobic dust like lignite. The dry fog dust control systems have been successfully installed for suppressing lignite dust, which smolders when heaped and can also lead to explosions/burning of bags, in case of the bag house filter systems. Controls breathable fugitive dust [1 to 10 microns] within spcb norms. Recovery of material is without any secondary dust disposal system as in bag house system. Dust is suppressed without any secondary dust disposal system as in bag house system. Dust is suppressed in dry condition and moisture pick up is less than 0.1 % by weight of material being handled. No jamming/ build up in chutes, screens, crushers, etc, thus enhancing conveying system life. No heat loss in boiler/furnace/kiln, which would occur, if moisture pick-up content were high. The heat loss can run into crores, if moisture pick up is up to 1 % for a 300 tph belt.
