Buffalo Turbine
Dust and smoke from C&D Recycling sites can create potential health hazards for workers and the surrounding community. Dust and smoke are commonly generated when processing wood, shingles, drywall, gypsum, concrete and metal through recycling shredders, grinders and torches. Dust can also originate from truck roadways and material handling on tipping floors and sorting lines. With air quality a primary health and environmental concern, many government agencies and local municipalities enforce clean air regulations.

Wet mist suppression is one of the best methods for controlling and suppressing dust and smoke. By creating a wall of micron size atomized water droplets, fugitive airborne dust and smoke particles instantly bond to it, then become heavier and drop to the ground. The Buffalo Turbine Monsoon effectively controls dust and smoke using the wet mist suppression method at a fraction of the cost compared to spray nozzle tip machines. This is possible because a Buffalo Turbine Monsoon features the industry’s first turbine driven gyratory atomizing nozzle.

Available in several power source options and compact, versatile mounting configurations, each Buffalo Turbine Monsoon features the Buffalo Turbine single stage blower. The Buffalo Turbine Monsoon is a cost effective solution to C&D recycling dust control and smoke control. www.buffaloturbine.com

Dust Control Technology
The DustBoss combines an oscillating ducted fan with a pressurized misting system to create a high performance dust and odor barrier. A single machine can blanket up to 125,000 square feet with a fine mist of water droplets measuring 50-200 microns, the optimal size for suppressing airborne dust. This ultra-fine mist attracts dust particles and odor droplets, encapsulating them and driving them to the ground. The units are fully automatic and portable, with a variety of options.

The flexibility of the DustBoss design makes it well suited for applications in construction and demolition, rock/aggregate processing, transfer stations and scrap. The DustBoss is backed by the industry’s longest warranty: three years or 3,000 hours. Proprietary VPS Technology (Variable Particle Sizing) provides superior results by matching droplets to specific dust particle size for optimum performance. Models are available for purchase or short- or long-term lease.

At a time when contractors and bulk material handlers are finding capital equipment budgets squeezed to their limits, many companies requiring high-performance dust suppression are turning to rental options to obtain the equipment they need. In response to the current trend toward leasing over purchasing, Dust Control Technology has announced an expansion of one of the industry’s largest rental programs. With 30-40 DustBoss machines now in its fleet at any given time, the company provides ready availability, while guaranteeing the lowest rental price of any comparable model dust suppression unit. www.dustboss.com

NCM Odor & Dust Control
NCM Odor & Dust Control specializes in odor and dust control spray systems and products. Its goal is to eliminate dust particulate and stay within OSHA guidelines. NCM systems can operate as one complete unit or it can create multiple zones controlled by ball valves or remote controls to give facilities complete control throughout the working day. Zoning off your system aids in water consumption and allows sites to treat areas as needed throughout the working day. NCM systems can cover tipping floors, load out areas, conveyor belts, grinding equipment and areas where workers are to aid in cooling. Over the last few years, the company has created the ability to use water based dust control systems in colder climates by creating a system that blows out any moisture when the system is shut down to allow for dust control 365 days a year no matter the climate.

NCM also offers national service and installation on any dust control equipment it sells or that is in the market place. According to NCM, it is the only company that manufactures odor and dust control products in its ISO 9000:1 certified manufacturing plant, and engineers, installs and services dust and odor control equipment. www.ncmodorcontrol.com

 

MicroCool
