Dust suppression “umbrella”

TommyDa ยท 2009-11-18 03:04

I've seen new way to kill the dust from demolition work, "umbrella". It works with high pressure water and makes tiny drops like a fog around of the working machine. Do you think this would be good way to make environment dustless?

    Only if its above 32 degrees F.

    Question - Where does the water supply come from?

    I think this system works with pure water, so it's usually used above 32F, that's true. I saw suction hose from boom to high pressure water pump and they said that in this case it's using boom as a water tank.

    That may have benefits on those extremely hot days out west to.
