DMS-TSF®: Tailings Storage Facilities

DMS-TSF® is our long term high efficacy dust suppression additive for mine tailings storage facilities (TSF).  Our blend is customized for your TSF and weather.  Our formulation contains non-toxic environmentally friendly nano polymers and surfactants that generate a dust-free, stable, and long term dust control crust. Our product is chlorides-free and has no negative on colonizing plants and microorganisms. DMS-TSF is complementary for your closure and remediation plan.

Description

DMS-TSF® is a unique engineered dust suppressant nano polymer with hydrophilic UV and extreme cold resistant properties for non-trafficked areas, such as tailings, stockpiles, and berms. DMS-TSF® is a water soluble, crust forming, UV, rain, and cold resistant polymer formulation.

Dust control and erosion control of non-trafficked areas, such as tailings, stockpiles, and berms. DMS-TSF® has a gradual accumulative effect. Multiple micro-layers of foaming and film are formatted, enhancing the surface binding capacities, water retention, and dust particles encapsulation for extended periods. DMS-TSF® has high  UV and extreme cold resistance, making it an ideal solution for severe weather conditions. 

DMS-TSF® is usually applied using water trucks, hoses, water cannons, aerial applications (planes/helicopters). DMS-TSF application rates are between 2 to 3 L/sqm at a dilution of 3 to 5 v/v%.

Contact ABCDust for a substrate analysis and lab test before major surfaces applications, to assess the different application and dilution rates, and to recommend you the most homogeneous and safe application method based on your site topography.
