Fact Sheet
DusTreat* DC9114
Dust Control Binding Agent
Reduces fugitive emissions from material
handling operations
Provides long-term residual control
Effective at high temperatures – >200°C (400°F)
Can be applied as a liquid spray or foam
Description and Use
DusTreat* DC9114 is a liquid product designed to
control fugitive dust emissions from material
handling and open storage. This product is specifi-
cally formulated to control dust from high tempera-
ture substrates and provide long term residual
effects. DusTreat DC9114 is particularly effective on
inorganic substrates such as mineral ores and
cement clinker.
Typical Applications
Material handling and storage can lead to fugitive
dust emissions. These emissions lead to environ-
mental problems and poor community relations.
Emissions can also represent loss of valuable
product.
The control of dust from hot materials is a particu-
larly difficult task. Hot material renders dust control
by water addition ineffective because of evapora-
tion. Organic dust control agents such as latex or
oils will decompose at temperatures greater than
200°C (400°F) and are ineffective for long term dust
control.
The active ingredients in DusTreat DC9114 are tem-
perature stable, which allows the product to per-
form extremely well at temperatures above 200°C
(400°F).
Treatment and Feeding Requirements
DusTreat DC9114 should be applied at a material
transfer point where optimum mixing with the sub-
strate can occur. For extremely hot applications the
product is applied with water using standard atom-
izing nozzles. For cooler applications, DusTreat
DC9114 can be applied as a foam using a suitable
GE foaming agent and standard GE AcuFeed*
equipment. Dosage of DusTreat DC9114 will depend
on site specific operating conditions and the severi-
ty of the problem.
