New Delhi, January 12

In order to attenuate and management the fugitive mud in mining areas, Central Mine Planning and Design Institute Limited (CMPDIL), Ranchi (a consultancy subsidiary of Coal India Limited) has invented a “System and Method for Controlling Generation and Movement of Fugitive Dust” and obtained   patent for a similar in December, 2022 (Patent No. 416055).

This system can be utilized in mines, thermal energy crops, railway sidings, ports, building websites whereby coal or different minerals/fugitive supplies are saved below open sky. Apart from lowering the mud technology from open sources, it can additionally present noise attenuation.

Coal/Lignite PSUs below the Ministry of Coal persistently attempt to supply high quality coal in an environmentally accountable method to fulfill the nation’s power wants. To forestall or mitigate air air pollution brought on by coal mining and allied actions, coal/lignite PSUs are adopting numerous measure. Fugitive mud is a type of particulate matter that contributes to air air pollution that’s generated from numerous sources that are uncovered to air and never discharged into the environment by a confined stream stream.

Synchronized Application of Windbreak and Vertical Greenery System (VGS) for Fugitive Dust Control – a New Idea

Synchronized utility of Wind break and VGS

The current invention pertains to the synchronized utility of windbreak (WB) and vertical greenery system (VGS) for lowering technology and dispersion of fugitive mud. The WB and VGS are erected within the upwind and downwind course with respect to the fugitive mud supply(s) respectively. The WB reduces the velocity of the wind approaching in the direction of the supply and therefore, it reduces the depth of the ambient air to choose up mud whereas blowing over the supply. The VGS acts as a filter and reduces the amount of the residual mud shifting together with the wind in the direction of the receptors within the down-wind course. Therefore, there’s a vital discount within the focus of the mud within the ambient air at numerous receptors situated within the down-wind course. This system has been depicted within the Figure beneath:
