Multiple dust concerns
Dust and erosion in quarries not only pose a substantial risk to the health of those exposed, but also to expensive equipment. Dust build-up on machinery can cause frequent breakdowns, leading to unnecessary downtime and cost accumulation.
For personnel working directly or indirectly with natural materials in quarries, exposure to airborne dust can cause multiple respiratory illnesses such as silicosis, miner’s lung, pneumonia and even lung cancer.
Dust that escapes the site boundary with the help of wind or vehicles can also pose a health risk to neighbouring communities.
At Mideco, we are acutely aware of the significant legal, compliance and publicity implications of industrial dust at quarries. Without a robust dust collection solution in place, quarry operators face an ongoing struggle.
That’s why Mideco has risen to the challenge to solve all your industrial dust problems at quarries – anywhere in the world.
