RST Launches New Dust Suppressant Solution Requiring No Water

LEADING Australian dust management company Reynolds Soil Technologies (RST) is launching a revolutionary new dust solution, Zero, which requires no water and doesn’t evaporate or freeze.

The latest addition to RST’s high-tech, problem-solving range of products, the Zero solution is the ultimate in spray-on long-term dust control where watering programs are not an option.

A global market leader in developing fast, effective and environmentally friendly dust, soil and water solutions for the mining, construction, civil and agricultural industries, RST has developed its Zero product to suppress dust under the toughest conditions.

It requires no water for application, has a cumulative effect with maintenance applications, requires no ongoing watering program, and cures immediately – all while having no odour, no slipperiness and no effect to application equipment or the environment.

RST operations and technical director David Handel said the Zero product’s formulation is the latest chemical innovation developed through RST’s ongoing research and development programs.

“The Zero product’s crystal clear, free flowing, odorless chemistry has been formulated to meet the highest standards of environmental regulations globally,” Mr Handel said.

“It has penetrating and aggregating properties that allow the Zero solution to permeate into the individual fine particles, weighing them down so they are unable to be blown away as dust.

“The Zero product’s unique formula creates a long term, re-workable solution that doesn’t evaporate or freeze.

The Zero solution is simply sprayed directly onto the treatment area for ease of application.

The recommended dosage rate of the Zero solution can vary depending upon traffic types and volumes, material type and the time required for the material to remain dust free.

The Zero product’s dosage rate can vary from 0.2 litres to 1.5 litres per square metre.

Designed to last, the longevity of the Zero solution can reach 18 months when heavier dosage rates are applied.

Maintenance reapplications only require 30% of the original application dosage rate.

RST has more than 26 years of experience specialising in total dust management, soil stabilisation and erosion, water and agricultural solutions for mine sites, haul roads, ports and land sites in Australia and overseas.

The company’s head office is based at Burleigh Heads, Queensland with an additional office in Carlisle, Western Australia.

RST’s international operations extend to regions including South and North America, Africa, Asia and Oceania.
