GRT Activate UG is used to super-activate water sprayed to control coal dust in longwall and continuous miner operations. Coal is by nature hydrophobic (water-hating) and at the microscopic level repels water – so despite the volumes used, the finest particles simply bounce off of sprayed water. These fine particles, which may not even be visible, are the most hazardous to health, leading to diseases such as black lung and other respiratory ailments.
GRT: Activate UG super-activates water to overcome this behaviour causing the water to immediately coat airborne particles, forcing them to drop out of suspension in the air.
Injected into existing spray systems, GRT: Activate UG saturates the coal face and intercepts fine particles immobilising fugitive dust. Importantly, the solution does not alter the burning properties coal or quality of your products, by targeting and mitigating only dust.
Whilst developed specifically for the coal face, GRT Activate UG can also be applied to manage dust from conveyors, large mineral stockpiles or any fine or pulverised minerals in transit.
GRT will work with you to devise a site-specific dust mitigation strategy to meet the challenges facing your project. We can also provide ongoing dust monitoring services to ensure the most cost effective protection over the life of your project.
Safety Management: Workers are protected from harmful effects from wind-borne particles such as black lung.
