DusTech migliora la qualità dell'aria e fa risparmiare a un cantiere 360.000 litri d'acqua al giorno
Poiché la soppressione delle polveri diventa obbligatoria a causa delle preoccupazioni per la salute e l'ambiente, il biopolimero ad azione rapida di MetaFLO offre una soluzione economica ed efficiente per migliorare la qualità dell'aria nei cantieri.

Sfida
Excessive airborne dust particulate matter caused by civil works has increasingly become an environmental and health concern. Dust harms the environment, compromises human health, negatively affects communities and reduces overall business productivity. Traditional methods for dust suppression usually require large amounts of water—typically 5-9 water trucks per day—which is costly both logistically and environmentally.
Soluzione
MetaFLO first applied 3.0% of DusTech biopolymer, which was diluted directly in a water truck and applied with a lateritic gravel and silt soil characterization. By promoting greater agglutination between soil particles, DusTech significantly reduces dust suspended in the air. It creates a layer on the surface of the soil that minimizes the release of fine particles into the air through a clumping process. A second layer was applied after 17 hours, with a 2.0% dosage.
Prima e dopo
Esito
✓ RISPARMIO COSTI
By using DusTech, costs of labor and machinery were cut by 50%, as were fuel consumption and emissions of polluting gases.
✓ RISPARMIO IDRICO
Water consumption on this project decreased by 50% with DusTech, saving 360,000 liters of water per day and reducing the need for additional surface moistening.
✓ QUALITÀ DELLA STRADA
MetaFLO’s biopolymer resulted in better agglutination of the soil, enhancing road safety, increasing traffic visibility and improving the air quality for employees, the environment and the surrounding communities.
