Truck loading applications are commonly used for handling by-products from coal-fired power plants and wood industry operations. In power plants, materials such as ash may be loaded into trucks, while wood industry applications may involve sawdust or other fine wood by-products. These transfer points can generate significant airborne dust due to the high fines content of the material.
The Raring Corporation recommends creating a dense cloud of TRC ADS™ Dry Fog inside a controlled and partially enclosed loading volume. This allows the fog to interact with airborne dust particles as the material falls into the truck, supporting agglomeration and helping the dust settle back into the load.
For best performance, ADS™ Dry Fog should be combined with passive dust control features such as wind fences, stilling sheds, curtains, or other containment structures. These components help isolate the loading area from wind and external airflow, keeping the fog and dust inside the truck loading zone long enough for effective dust suppression.
By combining active dust suppression with passive containment, TRC provides an effective solution for controlling fugitive dust emissions during truck loading operations in power plants, wood products facilities, and bulk material handling applications.
