“To reduce dusting, haulage roads of coal mining companies are traditionally treated with water. But in dry and hot weather it evaporates quickly, and the effect of such treatment lasts only up to 2–3 hours. When using the preventive agent, this time increases up to eight hours. Thus, we both reduce the frequency of watering haulage roads and water consumption, and minimize the environmental impact and make working conditions more comfortable and safer,” says Zakhar Sapurin, Deputy CEO for Ecology, Industrial Safety and Land Use at Kuzbassrazrezugol Coal Company.
