Underground Dust Control
Cleaner, Safer Air for Underground Operations
Dust in underground mining environments creates serious safety, health, and equipment challenges. EnviroTech’s Underground Dust Control solutions are engineered to suppress airborne dust at its source, protect workers from exposure, and maintain compliance with evolving MSHA standards. Our specialized products are designed for belt transfers, longwall and continuous mining operations, and other enclosed environments where traditional dust suppression methods fall short.
How EnviroTech Helps You Stay Compliant
Our products are designed to help mine operators:
-
Maintain compliance with MSHA silica and airborne particulate standards
-
Protect worker health and improve visibility underground
-
Reduce reapplication frequency and operational downtime
-
Extend equipment life and lower maintenance costs
-
Support sustainability goals with environmentally responsible formulations
The Challenge of Underground Dust
Underground operations generate fine, respirable dust during cutting, loading, and conveying. This dust can impair visibility, damage equipment, and pose serious health risks for workers. High moisture and confined airflow make dust control especially difficult. Water alone provides only short-term results, often increasing corrosion and downtime. EnviroTech’s solutions extend water performance, improve particle binding, and deliver longer-lasting suppression with reduced application frequency.
Engineered Products for Underground Dust Control
DuraSynth and DuraSynth Emulsion
Synthetic fluid and emulsion-based treatments that provide durable dust control and lubrication for conveyor belts, transfer points, and cutting zones. Non-evaporative, heat-stable, and safe for confined environments.
X-Hesion Pro
A solution ideal for areas near air intakes or chloride-sensitive zones. Delivers dependable suppression with a biodegradable, low-impact profile.
MineReady Series
(MineReady, NoFoam, AggGlu)
Water-extending additives that improve the performance of spray and wash systems in longwall, continuous, and belt transfer operations. Available in standard, non-foaming, and high-adhesion formulations to fit a range of underground conditions.
Sustainability and Worker Safety
EnviroTech’s Underground Dust Control products are engineered to support ESG and compliance goals. They minimize water consumption, reduce fuel and maintenance costs, and protect both workers and equipment. By improving air quality and visibility, our solutions enhance operational safety and productivity without the environmental impact of chloride-heavy or petroleum-based treatments.
