To reduce fugitive dust emission at Stacker and

Reclaimer
• Problem/Opportunity Statement: - Fugitive dust emission is dangerous
for health and environment. There exists very high level of dust emission (>100mg/Nm3) near
stacker (SCR) of Lime Plant.
During last two years , Lime Plant received several complains from UCM of Field Maintenance and
department itself about dust emission during Lime stone stacking. This dust is carried away till
Field Maintenance office and also impacts the work there. It is mandatory to stop/minimize the
dust emission for health of stakeholders and Environmental compliance.

Moreover, the solution is very difficult as we cannot put more load (water tank) on
stacker and reclaimer .

system
• Unique project in Tata steel for fugitive dust arresting at stacker & Reclaimer as no water tank
or additional weight has been put on Stacker. The requirement is met by long water trough
(280 metre long)
