Measures to Improve Working Conditions and Reduce Dust and Gas Emissions in the Quarries of the Mining and Processing Plant

Abstract

Abstract Research is crried out on the existing measures to suppress dust and gas emissions during mass explosions at the quarry of a mining and processing plant. Measures have been developed to reduce dust and gas emissions, taking into account the analysis of existing measures to suppress dust and gas emissions during mass explosions at the quarry of the mining plant of JSC «Lebedinsky MPP». Studies of surface active substances on the wettability of dust particles have been carried out. In order to improve working conditions, it was proposed to reduce dust and gas emissions by suppressing them in the source of formation using the method of wetting and sticking together of dust particles. The proposed engineering and technical solution can be used to reduce dust and gas emissions during mass explosions at the quarries of various mining and processing enterprises. The developed method is proposed to be used to ensure environmental safety and improve working conditions in industries with increased dust content by increasing the efficiency of dust collection.
