Agricultural Dust Control Solutions

DustAid coatings are designed to control dust throughout the manufacturing, transportation, and application processes of fertilizers. DustAid solutions are best applied immediately after manufacturing, prior to storage, packaging, or loading. They provide dust control of friable materials on conveyors, transfers, and chutes as well as during transit by rail, truck, or barge. Extended performance improves end-user experience by controlling dust for the life of the material. By controlling dust, DustAid coatings reduce explosion potential, improve facility hygiene, reduce worker exposure to toxins, increase production yields, and enhance material integrity and quality, increasing the marketability of treated materials.

MINTECH DUST SUPPRESSION AND COATINGS SYSTEMS

Our process starts with a site visit by MinTech engineers who then custom-design, fabricate, install, and operate an application system suited to each operation’s performance and budgetary goals. Most systems include product storage (bulk tank, totes, or drums), pumps, material flow sensors, control panels, and spray or foam nozzles. Because we take responsibility for every part of the process, we guarantee performance and quality.
