Suppress dust with ease: Missouri composting operation blankets dust with atomised misting equipment

摘要

An innovative Midwest composting company has specified high-performance dust suppression equipment for a busy yard waste transfer station, helping the firm comply with environmental regulations and maintain good relationships with its commercial neighbours. The large-scale unit from Dust Control Technology replaces a smaller design from another manufacturer that proved inadequate for the size of the operation, while the new machine oscillates 40° to cover more than 20,000 square feet (1,858 square metres) with a dense, dust-trapping mist. Since the unit was placed in service, the facility has not received a single dust-related complaint, achieving excellent control of fugitive particles, while avoiding over-saturation of the compostable material. For nearly two decades, St. Louis Composting has been one of the state's leading producers of nature's ultimate renewable resource. The firm supplies gardeners and landscape professionals with top quality compost, topsoil and soil blends, along with a variety of mulches, while simultaneously reducing landfill waste across the metro area.
