In industrial operations, particulate emissions affect compliance, equipment reliability, and worker safety. Effective control requires more than extraction — it demands coordinated engineering between particle generation, airflow, capture, and filtration.

At Ship & Shore Environmental, dust collection systems are designed as integrated solutions matched to each process. Systems capture dust at the source, maintain high filtration efficiency, and deliver stable long-term performance.

Engineering Approach

Source Capture
Custom hoods and enclosures capture dust at its origin using velocities of 0.5–2.5 m/s, preventing dispersion and reducing the air volume requiring treatment.

High-Efficiency Filtration

Media selection is based on particle size and loading conditions. Pleated filters increase surface area up to five times, enabling compact systems with >99% efficiency and emissions ≤5–10 mg/m³.

Intelligent Controls

Pulse-jet cleaning operates on differential pressure demand, extending filter life up to 50% while reducing compressed air consumption. PLC controls provide monitoring, diagnostics, and predictive maintenance.

Performance Parameters

Validated using CFD airflow analysis:

• Airflow: 1,000–100,000+ CFM
• Energy reduction: 15–25%
• Noise: ≤80 dB(A)
• Filter life: 12–36 months

Combustible Dust Safety

For metals, wood, plastics, and powders, systems integrate:

• Explosion venting and isolation valves
• Spark detection and arrestors
• Grounding and anti-static design
• Optional fire suppression

These features align with OSHA and EPA safety expectations.

Modular & Energy-Efficient Design

Modular construction enables expansion and flexible installation. VFD-controlled fans adjust airflow demand, typically achieving:

• 20–40% lower energy consumption
• ~30% reduced maintenance
• Reduced downtime

Applications & Compliance

Used across metalworking, woodworking, coatings, food processing, chemicals, and plastics manufacturing. Ship & Shore provides full lifecycle support — from design to commissioning and service.

As PM2.5 regulations tighten, engineered dust collection transforms compliance from a reactive requirement into predictable operational performance.
