Preventing air pollution and reclaiming product, drive the use of dust collectors in virtually every plant where powder and bulk materials are processed or handled. In such plants, dust particles can be released into the environment and into the workplace atmosphere causing severe health hazards. Whilst environmental issues are a prime concern, the ongoing loss of product from operations can also be an issue; this translates directly into reduced profitability. Reclaiming high value products like chemicals can improve operating efficiency of the plant.
This 4- hour course provides a basic overview of the dust collection systems and is based entirely on the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) manual on Dust Control Handbook for Mineral Processing and covers Chapter 3: "Dust Control Systems" ; Chapter 4: "Collecting and Disposing of Dust" and Chapter 6: “Estimating Costs for dust control Systems.
The course includes a multiple-choice quiz at the end, which is designed to enhance the understanding of the course materials.
