This historical article discusses pandemic-era industry conditions and industrial dust collection applications. It does not claim disease-prevention performance for dust collection equipment.
Scope of Industrial Dust Collection
Industrial dust collection equipment is selected for the dust generated by a specific process. Equipment scope, filtration requirements and operating conditions must be assessed for each application. No protection against coronavirus or other infectious diseases is claimed.
Dust Collector Application in Particle Board Plant, Guar Gum Processing & Fly Ash Handling
Dust collectors are widely used in the wood, laminated and particle board plants. It protects the workers from the high volume of dust particulate generated in the processing of wood products that can lead to a major safety and health issue. The dust collection system is very important in the Guar gum processing as Guar gum is a flour-like substance and it is important to handle it efficiently. Factories that use boilers with coal generate a high amount of fly ash particles that escape in the flue gases in the environment. The dust collection system is the solution for fly ash handling that helps in protecting the environment.

Application of Dust Collection System in Cement Plants, Shot Blasting and Sand Blasting
As far as the cement plants are concerned, a high amount of particles are generated in the process of cement manufacturing and it is very important to capture and recycle these particles. The usage of an effective dust collection system works as the solution and provides a healthy environment. Dust collection systems play a very critical role in shot blasting and sand blasting. It helps in maintaining the clean working environment by recovering the unused shots and dust particles for the room.
Dust Collector System for Rubber Processing and Food Processing Plants
Rubber dust generated in rubber processing is not only hazardous for the health of workers, but it can also cause fires and explosions in the manufacturing facility. Hence, it is very important to collect it directly from the point of origin. Considering the criticality of the issue, a dust collector system is essential equipment in rubber processing. Similarly, food processing can also generate a high amount of dust. It can come from a raw ingredient like flour or the drying and transferring process. The dust collection system effectively captures the dust and other particles to provide a healthy work environment for the workers.
Besides, the growing health awareness is expected to increase the demand of air pollution control equipment in abrasive media manufacturing, mineral grinding, product collection, carbon black industry, master batch industry, plastic pallet conveying and wooden pallet conveying for controlling pollution and protecting the environment.
