How to control dust on your construction site

How do you manage or eliminate dust?

An effective and fast way to suppress dust is the application of water. Water will temporarily connect with the dust particles when sprayed on the road. This prevents the dust from becoming airborne.

It is quite possible that you would have heard of or seen a watercart being used before. Either as a dust suppressant in civil construction, or for soil compaction, mining, farming, fire control, and more. A watercart, also known as a watertruck is essentially a truck equipped with large tanks in the rear used to transport and distribute water with controlled spray nozzles. They come in a range of different sizes and designs, depending on what the project is. They have automatic hose reels, water cannons, cab operated batter sprays and front road sprayers.

These machines offer a powerful solution for dust control in small and large project sites as they have the ability to soak dry earth. This therefore reduces dust clouds. Without a watercart, cleaning up dust is a constant job that takes labour, time, and money.
