Fact Sheet
DusTreat* DC9142
Dust Control Wetting Agent
Provides excellent control of fugitive emissions
Effective on coal, ores and other bulk solid
materials
Controls dust in active storage piles and roads
Reduces inventory losses
Description and Use
DusTreat* DC9142 is a wetting agent specifically formulated to control fugitive dust from storage piles.
This product is biodegradable and does not contain
corrosive chloride compounds or waste oils. DusTreat
DC9142 solutions are particularly effective in reducing
respirable dust.
Fugitive dust is typically generated during unloading,
stackout, reclaim and crushing operations. These dust
emissions can be a safety hazard, an environmental
nuisance, and can increase maintenance of material
handling equipment. In addition, these emissions can
represent a substantial loss of valuable fuel.
Fugitive emissions can be significantly reduced by applying DusTreat DC9142 as a water solution to water
spray systems at a material transfer point or from
tank trucks equipped with sprays. DusTreat DC9142
solutions provide residual control so that treatment
needs only to be applied at a minimal number of locations. This reduces the cost of heating value losses
associated with moisture addition to coal.
Maximum efficiency with minimum cost is ensured by
using GE wet suppression systems. These systems are
fully automated and custom sized per site specifications to provide reliable and economical chemical
treatment. While optimal results are obtained with GE
equipment, DusTreat DC9142 can be used in other
feed systems. Check with your GE representative for
material compatibility information.
For contact with neat product, recommended materials of construction include stainless steel and PVC. For
dilute aqueous solutions, use of galvanized iron or
brass yields acceptable results.
