Course Description

The presentation includes a case study on dust and erosion control of coal piles in Columbia using Dust Stop Liquid Concentrate: an environmentally-friendly, non-corrosive, non-toxic polymer emulsion and mining solution. The product can be sprayed using water cannons or hydroseeders to seal stockpiles and mine tailings, preventing further disturbance of material.

The presentation will also include an overview of the product used for the case study, and brief mentions of two additional products that utilize material found on unpaved roads for dust control and soil stabilization.
