Overview:
A yet2 client is seeking new and emerging technologies, methods and processes that allow more effective management of dust (PM10) in three areas:
- Measurement, modelling and prediction of dust throughout its lifecycle
- Forcing the settlement of airborne dust at short distance and low wind speeds
- Prevention of dust from becoming airborne
Guidelines/Constraints:
Solutions should:
- Be able to effectively simulate, track, reduce or prevent airborne PM10
- Be suitable for use in adverse conditions (e.g. remote and high temperatures)
- Be implemented into industrial application within 2 – 5 years
- Fit health and safety criteria
Possible Solution Areas:
- Remote Sensing (e.g. Satellite imaging and LiDAR)
- Prevention, containment and capture technologies (e.g. mechanical filtration and electrostatic)
- Simulation of vegetation
- Low cost sensor networks/IoT
- Data analytics/Machine learning
- Atmospheric forecasting and modelling
Desired outcome of the solution:
Looking for partners to develop solutions for implementation on industrial site.
