 There are several sources of particulate matter. Some of the main activities include mining, construction sites, civil works and heavy loading and unloading of goods at ports. Mining and quarrying activities contribute to dust emissions from periodic explosions and heavy transportation vehicles. Construction activities produce particles like metallic, gravel and concrete dust. These activities like cement manufacturing and thermal power plants contribute to heavy dust pollution. This leads to the adverse effects on the health of the workers and residents living in the proximity. By monitoring particulate matter concentration around such dust-prone locations, data-driven actions can be taken to suppress dust levels. OISM DUSTROID is a smart real-time suspended particle monitor. It is capable of monitoring the particulate matters ranging from 1 micron to 100 microns in size. By profiling the particulates by its size like PM1, PM2.5, PM10, PM100, detailed dust analysis as possible. Peripheral monitoring by installing dust droid at strategic locations in the vicinity of the construction site, earthworks, civil works, mining, quarries, is beneficial to ensure the activities are not violating the air quality regulations. With our alerts feature, the system triggers notifications to the concerned person automatically whenever the dust levels crosses the threshold and helps in effective mitigation planning. The data is used to automate equipment like dust collectors, mist cannons, sprinklers, HEPA filters and HVAC systems for immediate dust suppression. OISM has automated several dust suppression systems for industries. To read more about it, please click on the link in the description below.
