Transfer points
Consider spray placement near the dust-generation zone without obstructing material flow or nearby equipment.

Industrial Dust Suppression Spray Solutions
Explore water fine-mist, chemical-aided, and air-and-water dry-fog spray approaches for airborne dust at material-handling and processing points. Product selection depends on the dust source, material, utilities, placement, and operating environment.
Applications
Target Dust Near Its Source
Existing Ventura product content identifies material handling, transfer points, crushers, and stockpiles as relevant dust-control settings. Each installation must account for material behaviour, surrounding equipment, air movement, and the effect of added moisture.
Crushing and processing
Review source geometry, ventilation, available utilities, and access for inspection and maintenance.
Stockpiles and handling
Account for exposed area, wind, material sensitivity to moisture, and changing operating conditions.
Product options
Dust-Control Spray Approaches
Ventura’s existing dust-suppression range presents three approaches. The appropriate option depends on process conditions and the required spray behaviour.
Fine mist — water
A water-only fine spray approach. Droplet behaviour, available pressure, placement, drift, and water quality remain key considerations.
Fine mist — chemical-aided
A fine-mist approach used with an appropriate process additive. Chemical compatibility and the site’s approved process requirements must be confirmed.
Dry fog — air and water
An air-and-water atomizing approach where both utilities and the resulting fine spray can be supported by the application.
Selection considerations
Define the Dust, Process, and Available Utilities
Dust control is application-specific. A nozzle should not be selected from spray angle alone.
- Dust source, material, and process objective
- Material response to added moisture
- Available water, air, flow, and pressure
- Droplet behaviour, drift, and air movement
- Nozzle location and distance from the source
- Water quality, filtration, and clogging risk
- Temperature and surrounding environment
- Installation protection and maintenance access

Typical environments
Material-Handling Conditions to Review
Applications may include transfer points, crushers, screens, stockpiles, loading or unloading, and enclosed or exposed handling areas. A responsible review considers the actual dust source, material trajectory, air movement, utility quality, water-addition limit, and maintenance conditions.
Mining and aggregates
Abrasive material, outdoor exposure, water constraints, vibration, and difficult access can shape equipment choice.
Steel and metals
Heat, scale, harsh exposure, moving material, ventilation, and surrounding machinery may affect placement and protection.
Other bulk solids
Material response to moisture, contamination limits, dust characteristics, enclosure, and process variability must be established.
Application limits
Materials, Compatibility, and Operating Information
Materials and compatibility
Provide water chemistry, treatment additives, temperature, abrasive solids, airborne chemicals, and outdoor exposure. Review bodies, internals, seals, strainers, piping, and mounting—not only the nozzle material.
Confirm the complete exposure—including concentration, contaminants, cleaning media, temperature, and seals—for the specific item.
Operating information
Dust-control performance is site-specific. Droplet behaviour, placement, enclosure, wind or ventilation, source containment, water addition, controls, and maintenance must be considered together; fine droplets are not automatically the best choice.
Catalogue data is a selection input, not a guarantee of results in an unverified system.

Common questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What dust-suppression approaches are listed by Ventura Spray?
The existing product content identifies water fine mist, chemical-aided fine mist, and dry fog using air and water.
What information helps with nozzle selection?
Useful inputs include the material and dust behaviour, source location, process objective, available water and air, pressure and flow, wind or ventilation, temperature, water quality, placement limits, and maintenance access.
Are finer droplets always better for dust control?
No. Fine droplets provide more surface area but are also more vulnerable to drift. Droplet behaviour, placement, material interaction, and site conditions must be considered together.
