LinkedIn Tech Digest: June 2026 | Dust Suppression & Heat Control

This article features LinkedIn post highlights shared in June 2026.

Fine Fog Dust Suppression Without Soaking the Site

Ever noticed that the air can feel cleaner after rain? ☔
Falling droplets can capture tiny particles in the air and bring them down to the ground.

But in an industrial setting, creating “rain” is not exactly ideal for dust suppression.
This article explains how fine fog helps suppress airborne dust without soaking the surrounding area.

Dust Control Case Studies

🏭 Coal Storage Yard: Fog-Based Dust Suppression

Fogging technology is also a powerful tool for dust suppression.
This short video shows how fine fog helps capture airborne coal dust before it spreads off-site—without muddy conditions or large-scale equipment.

🚧 Waste Treatment Facility: Better Coverage and Less Clogging

Despite a modest increase in operating cost, why did one waste treatment facility switch from a hydraulic nozzle to a pneumatic spray nozzle for dust suppression?
The decision came down to two persistent issues: insufficient spray coverage across the conveyor and frequent nozzle clogging caused by airborne dust. See what changed after the switch.

🔥 Steel Plant: High-Velocity Fog for Taphole Drilling Dust

A few minutes of taphole drilling can send dust rising through a steel plant.
See how high-velocity fog helps stop dust before it spreads.

Mist Cooling for Heat Control and Stable Operation

Extreme heat doesn’t just affect people—it can also put critical factory equipment at risk.

☀️ Compressor Room Heat Control in an Automotive-Related Plant

In one automotive-related manufacturing plant, rising summer temperatures created growing concerns that large air compressors could overheat and automatically shut down, affecting the entire production line.

So how did mist cooling help support stable compressor operation—even on extremely hot days?

🛞 Aluminum Wheel Cooling: Improving Takt Time and the Work Environment

Hot aluminum wheels, limited floor space, and a cooling step slowing the line…
See how fine mist cooling helped lower wheel temperature faster, improving takt time and the work environment.

🥵 Explosion-Proof Heat Stress Measures at an Outdoor Propane Refill Station

In explosion-proof zones, standard fans, spot coolers, and regular air-conditioned clothing cannot be used. So how can workers stay safer from extreme heat?

This short video introduces how mist cooling helped reduce heat stress at an outdoor propane refill station, where operators handle heavy gas cylinders under strict safety requirements.

Chocolate Coating with a Clog-Resistant Spray Nozzle

Uniform matcha chocolate coating is harder than it looks.
High viscosity and fine food solids can easily lead to uneven coating and nozzle clogging—see how a clog-resistant SETOJet spray nozzle helped solve the challenge.
