Dust Suppression System for Stacker and Reclaimer

tacker and reclaimer machines are essential in coal handling plants, power plants, steel plants, cement plants, and bulk material yards, but they are also major sources of fugitive dust.
Dust suppression systems designed for stackers and reclaimers prevent airborne dust emissions during stacking and reclaiming operations, improving worker safety, environmental compliance, and equipment life.

How Our Dust Suppression System Works

Our system uses high-pressure fogging technology and automated dust control mechanisms to capture dust at the source

Fine Mist Technology

Special fog nozzles atomize water into droplets (10–50 microns) that bind to dust particles and force them to settle.

Strategic Nozzle Placement

Installed at boom ends, discharge chutes, and transfer points where dust generation is highest.

Automated Control

Equipped with PLC integration, wind sensors, and humidity detectors for optimized water usage.

Water Conservation

Uses 30–50% less water than traditional sprinkler systems, reducing runoff and conserving resources.

System Design and Components

High-Pressure Pumps – Pressure range: 50–150 PSI, flow rate: 20–200 LPM.

Stainless Steel or Polymer Fog Nozzles – Anti-clog design for consistent misting.

Control Panels with PLC/SCADA – For automation and remote monitoring.

Pipelines & Valves – Corrosion-resistant materials for long life.

Optional Features:

IoT-enabled monitoring
Variable Frequency Drives (VFD) for pump speed control
Integration with stacker/reclaimer automation

FAQs – Dust Suppression for Stackers and Reclaimers

How effective is the system in windy conditions?

The system uses directional nozzles and wind-compensating sensors to ensure efficient dust capture.

Will it wet the material excessively?

No. The mist is ultra-fine and prevents over-wetting while binding dust particles effectively.

Can the system integrate with existing automation?

Yes. Our system supports PLC/SCADA integration for seamless automation.

Is it suitable for outdoor stockyards?

Absolutely. Our system is designed to withstand harsh weather and marine environments.
