Abstract: A system and method for controlling dust and/or odors comprises a blower unit and baffle member deployed downstream of the blower unit. The blower unit comprises a fan propelled mister with a discharge tube and a fan disposed in the discharge tube adapted for drawing air into the discharge tube and creating a high velocity air flow exiting therefrom. The discharge tube has a plurality of nozzles and a fluid source is placed in communication with the nozzles such that the nozzles discharge fluid particles that are entrained in a high velocity air flow exiting from the discharge tube distal end. A baffle member is deployed downstream of the blower unit at an elevation above the blower unit so as to alter a flow path of ambient air flowing through a discharge path of the blower unit.

Abstract: A system and method for suppressing dust and/or odors. The system includes a fan-propelled mister that propels air through one or more discharge tubes to create a high velocity airflow. A misting ring having a plurality of nozzles adjacent the end of the discharge tube acts to create a mist of small fluid particles. In one embodiment, the misting ring includes a first set of nozzles for generating a mist having fluid particles of a first size for controlling or suppressing dust and a second set of nozzles for generating a mist having fluid particles of a second set for suppressing odor. The system may also include one or more high pressure hoses to saturate a particular area or zone. The mister may also be adjusted to direct the output and/or oscillate to cover a greater area.
