An eco friendly surfactant additive to water for the improved control of hydrophobic (water rejecting) and other fugitive dusts.

Normally utilising water, misters, foggers and drenchers are used during day to day mining and ore production operations to suppress the emission of dust wherever possible. They are also an ideal method to control any fugitive airborne dust, eliminating the dreadful impacts of this rogue dust on human health and safety, and immediately reducing the detrimental effects of fine dust particles on the environment

General Hydrophobic dust control

Bioplex Active is a unique formulation of complexed surfactants . BioPlex Active is a simple and cost-effective additive to water control measures that will reduce water surface tensions, thereby improving the wetting capability of water droplets and increasing fugitive dust capture efficiency. Micro- dosing of BioPlex Active at rates as low as 1:10000 into the water supply side of your dust control mechanics can be expected to increase the efficiency of water usage by up to 80%.

Coal mining seam dust control

Coal mining Studies have shown that he addition of BioPlex Active into coal seam water injection systems, can improve control of total dust emissions by amounts upwards of 60 % when compared to water only injection.

BioPlex Active is completely non-toxic, non-corrosive and environmentally friendly, resulting in safe and suitable application to all industrial, agricultural and normal workplace areas.

  • Drilling, blasting, sweeping and other underground hazardous dust production activities.

  • Rock crushing, screening, grinding, milling and pulverising of ore during processing

  • Ore transport and handling via hoppers, conveyors, trucks and skips

BioPlex Active is a proprietary and environmentally friendly complex of ionic and non- ionic surfactants, and inert ingredients.

Micro-dose into the low pressure input side of drenchers, misters and foggers at rates from 1:5000 to 1:10000 depending on dust control requirements, mechanical control equipment, type and quantity of fugitive dust and current environmental conditions.
