The construction industry is a major source of air pollution, contributing 30% of PM10 in London. Dust and emissions from construction sites pose health risks, particularly respiratory issues like COPD among workers. Significant advancements have been made to improve air quality, including on-tool extraction systems that capture dust at the source and water-based dust suppression techniques that prevent airborne particles. These methods not only protect workers but also help companies comply with air quality regulations.
"On-tool extraction captures airborne dust directly at the source, significantly reducing worker exposure to harmful particles and aiding compliance with air quality regulations."
"Water-based dust suppression is the most common technique on construction sites, using sprinklers and misting systems to bind dust particles and prevent them from becoming airborne."
