👉 Dust engineering is a specialized field focused on the control, management, and reduction of airborne particulate matter, particularly in industrial, construction, and environmental contexts. It involves the development and application of technologies and strategies to minimize dust generation, enhance its capture and removal, and mitigate its adverse effects on air quality, human health, and ecosystems. Dust engineers employ a range of techniques, including the design and implementation of dust suppression systems (like water sprays or chemical stabilizers), the use of engineering controls such as enclosures and barriers, and the optimization of processes to reduce dust emissions. Additionally, they focus on monitoring and modeling dust dispersion to ensure compliance with regulatory standards and to improve overall environmental sustainability.
