Dust Transport Systems are a critical part of any efficient air pollution control solution. Once dust is captured by filters or electrostatic precipitators, it must be removed safely, continuously, and without releasing particles back into the environment. ELWO dust transport systems ensure controlled, enclosed conveying of collected dust from hoppers to silos, containers, or disposal points.
In addition to dust conveying, ELWO supplies engineered solutions for silo unloading and aeration. The equipment is designed for both standard applications and demanding operating conditions, with a strong focus on reliability, operational safety, and long service life. These systems have been proven in long-term operation across numerous power plants, where consistent performance and process stability are essential.
At ELWO Engineering, we design mechanical and pneumatic dust conveying systems that integrate seamlessly with filtration equipment, protect personnel and the environment, and keep your operation clean and efficient.
