Braun HD Dust-Tamer


DESCRIPTION:

DustTamer CM is a special polymer liquid engineered to control the dust in the mining industry.
Dust in existence or generated as a result of mechanical operation such as digging, loading, transporting and other handling processes yield dusting materials.

Dust suppression is defined as the prevention or reduction of the amount of fine particulates airborne or suspended in the air.

Typical Dust and Airborne Debris Problem

Application of Braun HD DustTamer will result on better visibility on the hauling road or on the open pit access road. The trucks operator will drive with ease and at constant speed as the traffic and ambient are so clear with no dust suspending in the air. In the end the miners stock pile yield a better input.


PERFORMANCE:

DustTamer CM as a dust suppressant formulation provide some advantages as follow:
Good wetting agent on the dry soil
Less breakage of film formation
Water reduction
Reduce cost labour
Easily dilute in water




RECOMMENDATION:

DustTamer CM provides a polymer film over the dusting material which create cohesive forces forms a homogeneous and resistant layer. As a result, less breakage of the formed film is observed.
The ratio for dust suppressant composition is 0.2% - 0.4% to water (20 lt to 10,000 lt of water)
Application is by automated water spray transport either using a pump or gravity based. The application frequency is once a day. In the initiation stage normaly we recommend 8 (eight) times in the first day, 6 (six) times in the second day, 4 (four) times on the third and 2 (two) times at 4th day. The following days apply only one time a day.
