WVU student debuts spray system to cut coal dust in mines
A West Virginia University engineering student Thomas J. DeWitt with his father Harry E. DeWitt and Earl M. Damron designed a nozzle based water spray. Tests in Midwest and Pennsylvania mines show up to 70 percent dust reduction and low exposure levels. The system aims for uniform micro droplets to improve dust capture while conserving water and aiding methane control. Further long term study is required to validate gains and assess maintenance needs.
