Process manufacturing often generates fine dust particles as a byproduct of normal operations. These particles, once they become airborne, often take time to settle out of the airstream and may pose issues with product quality control, require additiona...
Oral solid dose (OSD) pharmaceutical manufacturing can generate hazardous dusts that pose risks to health, worker and facility safety, and may cause cross-contamination. In OSD manufacturing, process dust is usually classified as “light and fluffy” and, when gener...
Combustible dust can create serious fire and explosion hazards in manufacturing and processing facilities. An effective dust collection system can play an important role in controlling these hazards, but selecting an NFPA 660 compliant dust collector invo...
Most electric vehicles (EVs) rely on lithium-ion batteries, which contain hazardous materials. These batteries pose various health and safety risks throughout their life cycle, particularly during production. The risks arise from the chemical composition of batter...
A company using pneumatic conveyors to move grass seeds into storage bins manually cleaned dust and dirt with shovels and brooms. Its old dust collector, equipped with horizontal filter cartridges, was ineffective due to insufficient airflow. Unaware of...
A Canadian aerospace company considered retrofitting its dust collectors that were used for removing combustible dust generated during high-velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) coating, blasting and grinding applications. The plan was to upgrade five old unit...
