Three pulse-jet collectors and local capture hoods installed at the crusher discharge, screening deck and conveyor transfer points to bring the site inside local emission limits.

The challenge

Visible dust plumes at the crusher discharge and screening deck had produced complaints from neighbouring properties and a regulatory notice. Any solution had to work without shutting the plant for more than a two-day window.

The solution

We surveyed each emission point and designed local hoods rather than attempting to ventilate the whole building. Three collectors were positioned close to their capture points to keep duct runs short. Installation was sequenced plant-by-plant so crushing continued throughout.

Results

  • Visible emissions at the three worst points eliminated
  • Site passed the follow-up regulatory inspection
  • No production lost - installation done in three staged windows
  • Filter access arranged above walkway level for safe bag changes
