Dust control is crucial in the mining industry and is not limited to roads but may be applied on stockpiles, slopes, and in-transit goods to stabilise haul and access roads to industry sites.
Our dust suppression agents have been formulated and extensively tested to prevent product loss and solve the most challenging dust emission problems of the mining and construction industries.
Our dust suppression solution has proven effective on mine sites that include those of coal mines, copper mines, ash dams, tailings dams and power stations. We also provide a dust suppression solution with the use of mulch.
The products were developed for optimal performance but with special consideration to minimising work health and safety issues, environmental impact and impact on the downstream use of the mined materials. From mine to the port, through various processing steps, transportation and storage, we can help reduce dust emissions and product loss.
We offer a range of PAVECRYLTM polymer emulsions manufactured with / without the use of alkylphenol ethoxylates (APEO) surfactants that work by having polymer particles penetrating the surface significantly reducing dust and providing a longer term solution than temporary solutions such as water spraying.
The relatively low film forming temperature allow the products to coalesce and cure properly thereby providing the ability to work effectively at low operating temperatures.

Product and customer insights
Despite numerous cleanings, the productivity of the Reverse Osmosis plant would not recover from severe membrane fouling. The membrane autopsy revealed that the ferric hydroxide was seeding
silica polymerization and that even while the ferric hydroxide was removed, the silica scaling was continuing to grow.
The plant was experiencing weekly shutdowns for fiber clean up (~ 3 kg bags of matted slurry is cleaned per week). The shut downs were costly as they reduce plant availability for production.
The International Maritime Organisation (IMO) regulation, known as IMO 2020 was the the largest change in regulation relating to marine fuels impacting 75% of the fuel used by the shipping industry.
Keeping drilling costs low using Redi-Guard™ High Performance, an ecologically friendly drilling fluid technology with revolutionary rheological and shale encapsulation properties
AWC A-110 effectively inhibited scale at a dosage of 3.5 ppm and an operating pH of 6.9. This increase in operating pH reduced the district’s annual acid consumption by ~$350K per year based on their current production.
Research indicates that Sea Buckthorn may be able to strengthen the immune system. One in vitro study focused on the possible immunomodulatory properties of Sea Buckthorn.
MCI® -2020 V/O and ChemMaster’s Colorsil were chosen to repair and protect the walls based on their 20 year warranties and the fact that together they could fulfill the other specified repair design requirements.
The East Hokkaido region is known to have the highest volume of potato product in Japan. Unfortunately, a potato farmer in the area was experiencing a high rate of potato scab infection in his agricultural field.
