NEXT-GEN DUST CONTROL
Better Perfomance / Less Water / Chemical Free
Made in the USA Since 1994
Because results really matter when it comes to todays dust control efforts, Cloudburst has developed a more effective solution that delivers significantly better results while using a fraction of the water, adds no chemicals and is easier to maintain. Our turn-key solutions and state-of-the-art systems provide a real answer to the real problem of dust mitigation without the drawbacks of other options.
100%
Capability to use raw, well, or non-softened water with no risk of fouling or scaling*
80%
Less water consumption than traditional mist systems*
0.01%
Water to mineral ratio*
How Our System Works
While most systems just spray water, Cloudburst uses fluid dynamics and particle science to trap dust before it becomes a problem. Our Dual Density Inversion Technology creates a controlled misting zone that draws in fine particles and forces agglomeration using ultra-fine droplets.
10-micron droplet size = matches PM10 & PM2.5 particles*
Solavite® internal water treatment = zero fouling, zero scale*
No chemicals. No compressed air. No over-wetting.
Why Cloudburst?
Result Focused Engineering for Better Dust Control
One of the key factors to successful dust control is being able to efficiently generate the necessary volume of high-density mist that is made up of water droplets that are the same size or smaller than the dust particles. This small droplet size allows the dust to absorb moisture quickly, triggering an agglomeration process. As the particles bind together, they form larger, heavier clusters that are no longer able to remain airborne and settle naturally due to gravity.
Standard Technology
The droplets produced by traditional spraying devices are measured in millimeters, making them hundreds or even thousands of times larger than what is needed for effective dust suppression.
Because the surface tension of the droplet remains intact, dust particles tend to bounce off its surface.
Even when the volume of water used is 10 times greater, effective mitigation is not achieved.
Why Other Dust Control Brands Fail
- Insufficient atomization produces much larger droplets. The surface tension of the large droplets cannot be broken, so the dust particles bounce off the surface unaffected.
- Very little mitigation effect is achieved even when the amount of water is 10 times the volume we use.
- Excessive wetting leads to heavier material and mud, causing significant maintenance and operational problems.
- Competing technologies often require reverse osmosis or other costly water treatments to function properly—resources that very few mining companies have access to for spraying.
