The concentration of respirable dust in the breathing air in the workplace should not exceed the MEL value. This condition can be reached in various ways. The use of a suitable delivery mode helps from the beginning.
-
Bulk Tankers and Big Bags
The most secure ways are bulk tankers or big bags. There are no delivery problems with these as they are sealed upon filling.
-
Plastic Bags
These are also problem free provided that they can be used in your production - that means for a polyethylene bag a mixing temperature over 120 °C and for EVA bags over 95 °C.
-
Normal Paper Bags
What about the normal paper bags? Here it is important that at any transfer point effective dust extraction equipment is used. An alternative to the above is the use of commercially available bag emptying equipment which is connected to a filter station.
