TeraFil’s GRT: DC Binder
Blast Pattern Dust Control
TeraFil’s GRT: DC Binder silica dust control systems work to prevent dust generation from the hazardous piles of drill cuttings produced by drill & blast activities. When applied to these piles, DC Binder produces a tough crust that binds hazardous dust particles in place and eliminating the cause of black lung & silicosis.
Dust can become airborne from wind, traffic and even the just movement of staff as they walk around and work in the pattern area. Fine respirable dusts are also often invisible to the naked eye – so it can be a hidden killer.
Specifically formulated to provide the mining sector with a dust management solution, DC Binder provides onsite workers with the assurance that drilling and equipment generated dust is minimized to prevent respiratory diseases and airborne pollution.
DC-Binder is a cost-effective, broad-scale dust & erosion control product that locks down your drill cuttings and blast pattern area.
Protect your crew!
Shotfirers, rig operators, and service truck drivers are on the ground for extended periods of time or are in and out of cabs. Dust can become airborne from wind, traffic and even the just movement of staff as they walk around in the pattern area.
Team the product up with GRT: 12X to completely manage your drill and blast activities.
Cost effective, weather proof dust control
For as little as $0.10 per sqm, GRT: DC Binder can be used in mine sites and quarries to ensure drill cuttings and surface particles are bound to form a tough crust, that is not only environmentally friendly, but is still 100% effect despite inclement weather such as rain and high winds.
Importantly, the solution also does not impact ore properties and drill and blast activities.
THE KEY INDUSTRIES BENEFITING FROM THIS TECHNOLOGY ARE:
Mining
Quarrying
Exploration drilling
Applications
Using our automated dosing units, the product is accurately dosed at low dosage rates into your site water carts and then sprayed over the drill pattern. TeraFil’s specialized long chain polymer (LCP) technology ensures a little goes a long way!
GRT: DC Binder Benefits
