Odour Control & Dust Control for Public Services

Public services, such as schools, hospitals, and government buildings, will face various types of dust issues. These dust issues can pose health risks to building occupants, damage equipment and furnishings, and create an unpleasant and unhygienic environment.

What kind of Dust issues might public services face?

Air pollution

A common dust issue in public services is indoor air pollution. Indoor air pollution is caused by a variety of sources, including building materials, cleaning products, and outdoor pollution that seeps indoors. This can lead to respiratory problems, allergies, and other health issues for building occupants.

HVAC

Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems can exacerbate dust issues related to the operation and maintenance of these systems. HVAC systems can circulate dust and other contaminants throughout a building, leading to poor indoor air quality and potentially causing health problems for occupants.

Storage

Services that handle and store materials, such as libraries or storage facilities, may face dust issues related to the handling and storage of these materials. This can lead to dust build-up on books, documents, and other materials, which can damage them or make them more difficult to use.

Parks and fields

Outdoor spaces, such as parks or sports fields, may face dust issues related to soil erosion and dust kicked up by sports activities. This can create unpleasant and potentially hazardous conditions for visitors and athletes.

How can Air Spectrum reduce dust issues?

DST

The Dust Suppression Technology additive is a specially formulated solution designed to be added to water for the purpose of suppressing dust. It is commonly used in a variety of industries such as construction, mining, and demolition to control dust generated by their activities. Using ingredients such as polymers, to bind to the dust in the air.

Misting solutions

Misting systems consist of a pump that pressurizes water and a network of pipes with nozzles that spray the water in a fine mist. The mist particles are designed to attach to dust particles in the air, causing them to fall to the ground and settle. An example of a portable solution is the Vortex 440 Mobile Fan, which is a robust wheel-mounted unit that can be quickly and easily moved wherever it is needed.

StaticAir

StaticAir specialises in designing and manufacturing advanced environmental control systems for various industries, including aerospace, defence, healthcare, and the public sector. Including the design and manufacture of air filtration systems, noise control solutions, and environmental control systems.

Findures

To reduce the presence of harmful aerosols, which are fine particulate matter, the Findures has been developed to optimise air quality in more industrial settings. They are not only suitable for industry, as the closed system works universally across several sectors. It can reduce particulate matter present indoors by up to 50%. Covering a wide range of dust particles, including bacteria and viruses.

Pamares

For a better outdoor solution, the Pamares is a quiet, eco-friendly dust removal product. They are best installed onto existing infrastructure, like lampposts. They can reduce the number of particles in the air by 30%, without adding noise pollution.

PMR-Tube

Whether you have an existing air duct system, or you need a standalone option, the PMR-Tube is a great option. This air pollution unit can reduce at least 80% of fine particulate matter, creating a healthier working environment.

Airgloss ProSense

You can also keep track of your air quality using the Airgloss ProSense. The ProSense can measure temperature, humidity, methane, carbon dioxide, and several other particles. The ProSense gives real-time monitoring, and you can connect via Wi-Fi and access the information from your devices.

What responsibilities do public services have legally?

The health and safety executive requires companies provide a safe environment for their employees. In enclosed areas of the workplace, it is the employer’s responsibility to ensure that there is sufficient ventilation. The primary goal of the guidance is to help businesses comply with their duty to provide sufficient fresh air under health and safety law.
