Belt conveyor systems are employed extensively to transport bulk materials in a great many industries, particularly those associated with mining and mineral processing. Belt conveyor installations are becoming longer and belt speeds significantly faster, resulting in increased dust emissions. An estimated 16 billion litres of water per annum is used by the Australian Black Coal Industry alone on dust suppression. This project will develop passive dust control technology, requiring no external energy or suppressants. This will be achieved through the development of numerical methods verified by rigorous experimental work. This will lead to significant cost savings, improved employee health and safety and reduced environmental impact.

带式输送机系统在许多行业中广泛用于运输散装物料，特别是与采矿和矿物加工有关的行业。带式输送机装置变得越来越长，带速明显更快，导致灰尘排放增加。据估计，仅澳大利亚黑煤工业每年就使用160亿升水来抑制粉尘。该项目将开发不需要外部能量或抑制剂的被动粉尘控制技术。这将通过发展经过严格实验工作验证的数值方法来实现。这将大大节省成本，改善员工健康和安全，减少对环境的影响。
