Until now there have been two major concerns linked with the problem of dust contamination. The first problem is the actual dust contamination itself and the second problem is the detrimental effects that the products used to control the dust contamination have on people and the environment. The implications involved in dust contamination are the fact that the suspended particulate matter is being dispersed throughout the environment polluting the air and eventually winding up in the soil, groundwater, oceans, lakes, rivers and streams. Compounding this problem into a much more complex one is the fact that the products used to combat this dust are more harmful to the environment than the dust itself. This is the critical reason why Dust Stop has been specifically formulated to be 100% environmentally friendly.
The problem of dust contamination has been an ongoing issue that has been debated for years. A solution needs to be found that is environmentally friendly and that eliminates the growing problems related to the effects of dust contamination. Dust contamination is in the form of suspended particulate matter and comes from many sources that include paved and unpaved roads, airstrips, stockpiles, commodity haulage, erosion areas, agricultural areas, race tracks, industrial sites, playgrounds and a vast number of heavily used surfaces of all kinds. Dust from any of these sources can cause bronchitis, asthma, allergic reactions, cancer and lung diseases within humans. This dust also has a vast number of negative environmentally related effects including a severe increase in air, soil and water pollution. Dust that has originated from roads contain not only fines from the road (i.e., <0.075 mm) but also unnatural dust particles including tire-wear dust, break-lining dust and tail pipe emission dust. All of which are composed of inorganic, unbiodegradable materials that have adverse effects when exposed to environments they are foreign to.
Enormous dust clouds traveling over countries and continents may carry unwanted passengers with them in the form of bacteria, fungi and viruses. These unwanted passengers when dispersed in a foreign area can cause severe health threats to people and the environment. Very fine invisible particles included in these clouds, known as PM 10 and PM 2.5 can exacerbate pre-existing respiratory ailments and sometimes lead to premature deaths among the elderly. All of these current problems need to be tackled with an environmentally friendly solution to put a stop to the devastating effects felt by people and the environment. Pets and all other animals also suffer these deleterious effects of hazardous dust contamination. Dust Stop was specifically formulated to be the perfect solution and serves to address the key issues involved in any past, present or future dust control needs.
Various road salts make up the main chemical-based, environmentally hazardous dust suppressants currently in use today. Examples of road salts currently in use as dust suppressants include calcium chloride, magnesium chloride, potassium chloride and sodium chloride. Because of the high releases around storage and snow disposal sites and through run-off and splash from roadways into the atmosphere, soils, streams and rivers, road salts and other chemicals also pose a serious threat to the aquatic environment, soil, plants, animals and human life. Immediate environmental impacts of chlorides include metal corrosion, degradation to nearby vegetation, surface water, groundwater and aquatic species of all kinds. These dangerous salts also have a severe negative impact on agriculture, producing soils with high salinity levels that are unfit to grow crops. Oil has also been used as a dust suppressant for roads but again has serious adverse effects on soil, vegetation, the water cycle, and is a non-renewable resource. It is imperative to note that road salts that contain inorganic chloride salts are "toxic" as defined in Section 64 of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 (CEPA 1999)."
Dust Stop is perfect for the extremely urgent problem of finding an environmentally friendly and sustainable dust suppressant solution. Dust Stop is completely successful at suppressing harmful dust economically and effectively. It is 100% environmentally friendly, organic, biodegradable and a pure renewable natural resource. This proves that Dust Stop is the perfect solution to any dust control requirement. It successfully controls the dust, while providing a 100% environmentally friendly solution that will not add to the problem of polluting our soil, rivers, streams, lakes, oceans, vegetation and agriculture. Dust Stop is here now to totally eradicate these serious problems threatening mankind and everything else on earth that is affected by these hazardous elements.
