Whole-plant dust management covering all aspiration points, ductwork, filter units, and fan selection.
Whole-plant dust management design covering all aspiration points, ductwork routing, filter unit sizing, and fan selection. Designed to meet occupational health air quality standards and prevent dust accumulation in the plant.

Facet Engineering dust extraction plant: cyclones and fabric filters handling combined extraction volumes from all transfer and processing points
01 / 04Grain and agricultural product dust is a health hazard, an explosion risk, and a fire risk. Effective dust extraction throughout a processing plant is not optional: it is a core requirement for safe, compliant, and insurable plant operation. Facet Engineering designs dust extraction systems for complete plants as an integrated system, not as an afterthought. Every conveyor transfer point, elevator head and boot, cleaning machine, and weighing station is assessed for aspiration air volume requirement. Ductwork is routed and sized for balanced airflow to all pickup points. Filter units and fans are sized to handle the total plant air volume with adequate filter area for the dust load. Explosion relief panels are standard on grain and flour dust installations.
