Four companies were awarded 2018 NIOSH (National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health) Mine Safety and Health Technology Innovations Awards for developing new tools and systems or using existing technology in new ways.
One of these companies was awarded for successfully reducing airborne exposures to crystalline silica and respirable dust generated during frac sand production by installing two TRC's ADSTM Dry Fog systems to control those dusts.
The company's use of a dense phase conveying system and a fogging system around rotex screens achieved dust reductions that offered measurable protections to workers.
