Dust collection system helps tire
recycling center meet NFPA guidelines
Situation
Resolution
Imperial Systems provided the recy-
cling facility with a turnkey dust col-
lection system. It included the manu-
facturer’s Big Round Filter (BRF); a
high-efficiency cyclone; a backdraft
damper; two heavy-duty, flexible-tip airlocks; and ductwork and fittings.
The installation of the internal cyclone was complex, as it had to be
completed in a confined area. Installation was finished during the tire recycling facility’s planned scheduled
maintenance time to help prevent lost
production revenue.
The dust collection system has improved the working conditions of the
recycling plant and has reduced the
chances of a catastrophic disaster
occurring.
