Brookman, E. AND K. Kelley. DEMONSTRATION OF THE USE OF CHARGED FOG IN CONTROLLING FUGITIVE DUST FROM LARGE-SCALE INDUSTRIAL SOURCES. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Washington, D.C., EPA/600/2-83/044.

Description:

The report gives results of a full-scale demonstration of a charged fogger (Ritten Corporation's Fogger IV) on several industrial fugitive emission sources. (Although charged foggers have been widely applied to industrial sources of fugitive dust, little data are available on fogger control effectiveness on particulate matter.) The sources tested included a primary rock crushing operation, a secondary rock crushing operation, a molten iron spout hole at a blast furnace cast house, and a coke screening operation. The report also gives results of three source tests using the same charged foggers, along with a charged fogger developed by AeroVironment, Inc.
