Belly rail dumps are challenging dust control applications because airborne dust is generated as railcars discharge material into the dump pit or receiving hopper. During dumping, the dust source can be exposed to wind and other external airflow, making proper containment essential.
The Raring Corporation can apply TRC ADS™ Dry Fog Dust Suppression Systems at belly rail dump applications to control airborne dust directly at the source. For effective performance, ADS™ Dry Fog should be used with passive containment features, such as side walls, enclosures, baffles, or wind protection.
These containment features help isolate the dust source from external influences, keep the fog and dust within the controlled treatment zone, and provide the retention time needed for agglomeration. By combining passive dust containment with active TRC ADS™ Dry Fog dust suppression, TRC can provide an effective solution for belly rail dump dust control.
