SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on calculating blower capacity for a dust collector bag filter system in a power material packing station measuring 1.5 M x 1.5 M x 1.2 M. Participants emphasize the importance of controlling airflow direction to prevent dust from affecting the operator. The potential use of electrostatic dust collection is mentioned, along with concerns regarding the nature of the dust, particularly if it is explosive. The need for additional information about the environment and dust type is highlighted to provide accurate calculations.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of airflow dynamics in dust collection systems
  • Familiarity with blower capacity calculations
  • Knowledge of dust properties, including explosiveness
  • Experience with electrostatic dust collection methods
NEXT STEPS
  • Research blower capacity calculation formulas for dust collector systems
  • Learn about airflow control techniques in dust collection
  • Investigate the properties of different types of dust, focusing on explosiveness
  • Explore electrostatic dust collection systems and their applications
USEFUL FOR

Engineers, facility managers, and safety professionals involved in dust control and air quality management in industrial settings.

Dear Friends,

I have power material packing station which is about 1.5 M X 1.5 M X 1.2 M(H) , when i take the material the fly dust is very more and create fatigue to the man. I would like to provide a dust collector bag filter system , So please give me the formula to calculate the blower capacity.
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
I assume “power” material = “powder” material ?

We need more information.

Re:1.5 M X 1.5 M X 1.2 M(H).
Is that a volume that contains the operator?
Is that enclosed or in an open area?

Dust control requires that the direction of the airflow be controlled without eddies being formed by the operator that keep dust in the face of the operator.

What is the dust? It might be possible to use electrostatic dust collection but the dust may be explosive.

I have handbooks for dust control but cannot yet identify your situation.
