EmiControls applications

Tunnel Construction and Underground Mining Industry

Conventional methods of firefighting have their limits when it comes to extinguishing fires in tunnels and underground railway shafts. The build-up of smoke and soot is an enormous hindrance to firefighting. Then there is the intense heat and the low concentration of oxygen because of the inertization process. In most cases the extinguisher jet cannot reach every part of the source of the fire.

Open-Pit Mining

High volumes of dust, often extending over large areas, present a major challenge for the operators of opencast mines. If weather conditions are dry and windy, the dust will affect not only the workforce but also entire housing estates in the vicinity. The sources of dust at open-pit facilities are frequently distributed over very large expanses. With their large projection range, EmiControls dust-laying sprayers are the ideal solution. Mobile versions of the machines can be moved easily and therefore used to control dust at various sources.

Industrial Facilities

The dust generated at various times during the production and processing of materials in factories is often unpleasant and pollutes the environment. Such situations arise, for example, in steel production, when disposing of slag, in cement production or in the lumber industry. EmiControls products have the versatility and flexibility to be adapted to a wide and diverse range of situations, enabling measures to be taken that combat these sources of dust effectively and drastically reduce their levels inside and outside the plant.

Emission Control Systems for Storage and Loading Areas

The amount of dust generated when storing and moving various materials, such as wood, coal and ore, is very high and poses a severe health hazard. EmiControls offers customized solutions for dust control, thereby creating a pleasant, healthy and safe environment for workers and nearby residents. Fixed dust control installations on funnels, conveyor belts and at discharge points are just as suitable for use as mobile units – the right solution to any given problem is identified during the planning and consultation phase.

Emission Control Systems for Mechanical Evaporation Industry

Modern nozzle and turbine technology developed by EmiControls is also used as a basis for the evaporation of water. This might typically be needed in open-pit mining, for example, to deal with large unwanted pools of water. Special nozzles can be used to atomize the water for evaporation. Evaporation is also useful in salt production. The tried and tested EmiControls technology can make the rate of evaporation much faster than the natural speed of evaporation, which helps the operators save an enormous amount of time.

Emission Control Systems for Demolition Industry

Demolition work and the dust it generates is a big problem for residents and the environment when work is carried out in residential areas. EmiControls offers the right dust control solution for every type of demolition work, thereby protecting the inhabitants, neighboring buildings and the environment. Because the source of dust can move constantly during the demolition process, mobile solutions are ideal as they can be positioned and pivoted easily and quickly. And they can be removed from the site when the work is completed.

Emission Control Systems for Airport Industry

Firefighting operations at airports are particularly critical as they normally involve rescuing people. The large quantities of aviation fuel make it a very high-risk activity with intense heat build-up.

Emission Control Systems for Opencast Mines and Quarries

High volumes of dust, often extending over large areas, present a major challenge for the operators of opencast mines and quarries. If conditions are also dry and windy, the dust will affect not only the workforce but also, in many cases, entire housing estates in the vicinity. The sources of dust in surface mining areas are often distributed over very large expanses, with dust originating from various places. With their large projection range, EmiControls dust controllers are ideal for such applications. Mobile versions of the machines can be moved easily and therefore used to control dust at various sources. Individually adapted spray systems can also be used in this field of application. The system in any given case can be controlled by a computer, thanks to the user-friendly software.
