Performance study indicted fugitive dust emission concentration values ranged from 354 to 7040 μg m−3, which was reduced to 91–300 μg m −3 after installation of DFDSS. The reduced values were within the permissible limit of 1200 μg m −3 at a ...

Bureau of Mines studies have shown that ignitable airborne coal dust concentrations start on the order of 50g/m3 (0.05 oz./ft3) [5,6]. The most explosive coal dust size in air is below 75 nm (—200 mesh) [5,6].

Dust emissions are measured as PM 2.5 and PM 10 in the mining industry and have been investigated by various researchers. Both underground and …
view moreThis study compares modelling results to measured concentrations near dust sources in a natural stone quarry and in two aggregate quarries. In the natural stone quarry, the dust source was drilling and in the aggregate quarries, it was crushing. Aim is to evaluate performance of model BREEZE AERMOD under 200 m from the dust source, and to …
