Effective Dust Suppression System for Frozen Ground
Rainstorm on Site: McDermott Marine Engineering Co, Qingdao Wuchuan, China
Specific Site Challenges:
– Frozen dry ground producing fine fugitive dust
– Damage to the yard surface caused by movement of heavy, tracked vehicles
In December 2023, Rainstorm answered the call to tailor a dust suppression system for McDermott Marine Engineering Co at its Qingdao Wuchuan gas module construction facility in China.
Summers in the region are hot and wet, while winters are typically dry with often sub-zero temperatures and consequently, frozen ground. While you might typically think of dust being generated in hot dry conditions, freezing dry conditions can present the same degree of fugitive dust and pose the same kinds of health and safety risks.
