Gravel Loading Dust Control & Fugitive Emission Suppression: MAKIES AG Rail & Lorry Operations

Static Misting Technology Eliminates Fugitive Dust at Leading Swiss Gravel Producer

Défi :

MAKIES, one of Switzerland’s leading gravel and concrete companies established in 1962, required effective control of fugitive dust emissions during rail and lorry loading operations at their Gettnau facility. Uncontrolled dust was causing material loss, creating housekeeping issues, posing occupational health risks for operatives, and potentially damaging the local environment during bulk material transfer operations.

La solution Mist-air :

Mist-air installed localized static misting manifolds in 2018, strategically positioned to encapsulate dust at the point of creation during loading operations. The system keeps dust contained within vehicles as it forms rather than allowing it to escape, preventing material loss while protecting worker health and the surrounding environment. The targeted approach ensures effective dust control without interfering with loading efficiency.
