CORE INDUSTRIES
PHARMACEUTICAL

Oral solid dosage products (OSD) such as tablets, pills or capsules contains Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API). These API create very fine dusts and often high solvent concentrations during the product handling and manufacturing processes

Dust generation in the Pharma industry occurs in most process steps from the handling of bulk materials, to milling, granulating, tableting, encapsulating, coating, and even packaging. Due to the fine nature of this dust, it has the potential to drift high and far coming to rest on the surfaces and in crevices throughout your facility.

This dust can pose several challenges including: cGMP issues, the cross-contamination of parallel processes, employee exposure if dealing with noxious dust, and possible deflagrations due to the dust’s combustibility nature.

PILANI ENVIROTECH has considerable understanding of pharmaceutical industry. We design and manufacture systems that contain the dust generated from activities in the pharma industry.

FOOD & BEVERAGES

Dust produced during the manufacturing and processing food products create a number of significant challenges. Food dust particles varies in size, and some are so fine that they are not visible to the naked eye.

These particles often become airborne, which can threaten worker health and cause combustible dust incidents. Cross-contamination is another serious concern in food processing industry. Common food dust hazards include cereal ingredients, spices, feed and raw grain agricultural products, eggshell dust, flour, corn starch, sugar and flavouring additives.

MACHINING

Processes such as welding, plasma cutting, drilling, grinding, sawing generates very small particles, fumes, and smoke and dust.

Dust in general, including combustible dust, must be properly filtered and enclosed to ensure employee health and safety. Industrial dust may contain metals and chemicals that can be harmful if inhaled or in contact with the skin. Besides, some types of process dust can be flammable, which can trigger explosions in the workplace and fire if not handled properly.

PILANI ENVIROTECH has considerable understanding of such processes. We design and manufacture systems that contain the dust generated during machining and metal working.

PAINT

PIGMENT DUST CARRIES DANGEROUS METALS WHICH NEED TO BE CONTROLLED

Many pigments contain metallic compounds that give them brilliant colors. Unfortunately, some of those metals are quite toxic. In industrial facilities that work with paints, inks and dyes, pigment dust can become a serious problem for workers' health.

Metals present in many pigments include cadmium, zinc oxide, and hexavalent chromium. Many of these elements and compounds carry significant risks when they travel through a facility in the form of dust.

PILANI ENVIROTECH has considerable understanding of such processes. We design and manufacture systems that contain the dust generated in paint industries.

BATTERY

Battery manufacturing demands extremely efficient and reliable dust collection because of the presence of lead and other dangerous materials during manufacturing which create health and environmental risks.

Hazards in battery manufacturing may include exposure to arsenic, cadmium, and other dangerous materials. Dust and fume collection for the battery production industry must be very efficient.

Because lead exposure causes so much harm, dust and fume collection systems for lead acid batteries often have HEPA after-filters. These ultra-efficient filters serve as a backup to catch any lead dust that might get past the primary filters.

PILANI ENVIROTECH has considerable experience of working in this industry. We design and manufacture systems that contain the dust generated by processes during battery manufacturing which helps keep check of health and environment.

CHEMICAL

Dust in the chemical processing industries (CPI) is present in numerous operations.

An integral industry-safety issue arises when we consider the handling and suppression of the dust and particulate matter associated with these processes, namely preventing the formation of combustible clouds that can create a fire hazard or even trigger an explosion.

Protecting workers from the dangers of potentially dusty environments, including contact irritations and inhalation exposure, is an important factor in determining the methods and extent to which the particulate matter or dust needs to be suppressed or eliminated.

PILANI ENVIROTECH has considerable understanding of such processes. We design and manufacture systems that contain the dust generated in chemical processing industries.

MINING & GOLD REFINERY

The minerals and energy sectors engage in a wide range of activities and processes. Many of those have the potential to give rise to serious air pollution issues.

For surface and underground mines, dust and other particulates are the principal hazards. Ore processing and oil & gas operations, on the other hand, can give rise to a number of potentially harmful chemical and gas residues.

PILANI ENVIROTECH has considerable experience of working in this industry. We design and manufacture systems that contain the dust generated by processes in such sectors.

TILES & CERAMICS

Airborne dust concentration at various sections of the production process tends to be higher in the ceramics industry compared to other manufacturing industries. Case studies have found that the departments with highest dust concentrations tend to be grinding and glaze spray.

Airborne dust particles that contain silica (the dioxide of silicon) cause very high exposure risks that can affect the respiratory system of workers in ceramic factories. Factory inspections suggest that approximately 80% of airborne dust particles within the industry are of respirable size – creating all kinds of health & safety and legality issues.

PILANI ENVIROTECH has considerable experience of working in this industry. We design and manufacture systems that contain the dust generated by processes in the ceramics industry.

GEMS & JEWELLERY

ewellery manufacturing activities, such as deburring, grinding, and polishing, generate metal dust. Jewellery metal soldering, and melting or smelting, either in blow furnaces, induction furnaces, or in ladles or crucibles heated with a torch, also generate metal dust.
