Dust control during the packaging of calcium carbide slag
Thread Content
In dry acetylene production plants, the calcium carbide slag in the slag silo has a moisture content of 8–15%; during packaging and loading, it generates a lot of dust. What measures can be taken to deal with this issue? I would appreciate advice from those with experience in this field. Thank you
Is there still dust when the moisture content is 8–15%? If that is indeed the case, it is recommended to start by ensuring system sealing, reducing the height difference, employing local exhaust ventilation, and then carrying out wet treatment.
Calcium carbide slag easily generates dust, unless its moisture content is above 20%. However, in actual production, it is not allowed to increase the water content
