The history of condensed molasses solids (CMS) is closely tied to the production and utilization of molasses, a by-product of sugar production. Molasses has been produced for centuries as a result of sugar extraction from sugarcane or sugar beets. Initially, molasses was primarily used as a sweetener and flavouring agent in cooking and baking. As the sugar industry developed and expanded, there was a growing need to find uses for the by-products of sugar production, including molasses. One of the methods employed to utilize the by-products of molasses more efficiently was the development of condensed molasses solids.

 

Today, condensed molasses solids continue to be utilized in a range of industries and applications, contributing to sustainable agriculture practices, waste reduction, and resource efficiency. Ongoing advancements in technology and the growing demand for sustainable solutions are likely to further enhance the utilization and importance of condensed molasses solids in the future.

POLYGRIP

Polygrip (PG) is an innovative, bio-based dust suppressant and road stabilizer that offers a cost-effective remedy for airborne dust generated by vehicle traffic. Carefully formulated to suit a wide variety of soil types, Polygrip demonstrates exceptional penetration and binding capabilities. When applied in multiple coats, it creates a well-bound substrate. Polygrip is suitable for use on trafficked main gravel roads and non-trafficked tailing dam areas. Being polymer-based and free from lignosulphonate or bitumen, this product stands out as a distinctive and environmentally friendly dust suppression solution. Polygrip is delivered in a concentrated liquid form, making it easy to use, and can be diluted on-site to achieve the desired application concentration. Its compatibility with most water sources found in mines and industrial sites makes it highly versatile for various applications.

 

This product is specifically designed to address dust issues in the long-term by reducing surface tension and facilitating water penetration, thanks to the binding properties of PG. Over time, the presence of the polymer creates a cumulative seal on exposed surfaces, effectively controlling dust and preventing water from seeping into the ground.

Polygrip is delivered in a concentrated liquid form, making it easy to use and can be diluted on-site to achieve the desired application concentration. Its compatibility with most water sources found in mines and industrial sites makes it highly versatile for various applications.

​

Once applied, the treated areas become immediately trafficable, making Polygrip the preferred choice for numerous operations seeking swift and efficient dust control solutions.

 

Dust Binding Mechanism: Polygrip works by binding the fine particles together, preventing them from becoming airborne. When applied to the road surface, the polymer forms a thin film that encapsulates the dust particles, reducing their mobility and minimizing dust emissions.

 

Polygrip can adhere to the surface of dust particles, creating a sticky or tacky film that binds the particles together. This adhesive property helps to agglomerate the dust particles, reducing their ability to disperse as airborne dust. It can form a thin coating or film on the surface of the road or dust particles. This coating acts as a protective barrier, encapsulating the dust and preventing it from being easily entrained by wind or traffic. The coating enhances the cohesion among dust particles, reducing their ability to become airborne.

​

Polygrip has hygroscopic properties, which means they attract and retain moisture from the air. By absorbing and retaining moisture, it keeps the road surface damp, which helps to reduce dust generation. The moisture acts as a binding agent, facilitating the agglomeration and binding of dust particles. The product exhibits hydrophobic properties, repelling water. In dusty environments, these hydrophobic polymers can help prevent water from evaporating too quickly from the road surface, maintaining a moist environment that reduces dust generation. The reduced moisture evaporation indirectly contributes to dust suppression by preventing fine particles from becoming airborne.

​

This can form physical bridges between adjacent dust particles. As the product chains link the particles together, they create a network of connections, enhancing the cohesion and stability of the dust particles. This interparticle bridging reduces the likelihood of dust particles becoming airborne. Which can encapsulate individual dust particles, surrounding them with a polymer matrix. This encapsulation physically traps the dust particles within the polymer structure, preventing them from separating or dispersing. It enhances the stability of the dust particles and reduces their mobility.

BIO-FUSION

Bio-Fusion (B-FUSE) has been developed as a bio-based dust suppressant and road stabiliser, providing cost-effective solutions to airborne dust as a result of vehicle traffic, this product has been formulated to be used over a wide range of soil types with optimal penetration and binding abilities. B-FUSE provides a well-bound substrate when multiple coats have been applied. The product can be used on primary, and secondary haulage roads.

​

Bio-Fusion has some moisture-retaining capabilities, which can help to dampen the road surface and reduce dust generation. B-FUSE can be applied to the road surface using various methods, such as spraying or surface application. Spraying is commonly employed, where specialized equipment like water trucks or sprayers can distribute the product onto the road. Surface application involves spreading the product directly over the road surface, followed by compaction.

The frequency of reapplication depends on site-specific conditions and the desired level of dust suppression.

B-FUSE can effectively suppress dust by utilizing its moisture-retaining and binding properties. When applied to the road surface, it absorbs moisture from the air and forms a thin film over the surface and dust particles. This film acts as a binding agent, agglomerating the dust particles and reducing their ability to become airborne. The moisture in the Bio-Fusion helps to increase the cohesion among the particles, further enhancing the dust suppression effect. Hence why B-FUSE is generally compatible with various road surfaces, including gravel, unpaved roads, or construction sites.

 

For haulage roads that are newly established, B-FUSE could be incorporated into the wearing course layer of the road. This happens through the process of scarifying, spraying, mixing, brooming, and rolling. 50-100mm of scarifying is recommended. This provides excellent dust control and sealing properties for the wearing course of the road.

Alternatively, temporary roads require a series of light dilutions, SPRAY-ON APPLICATIONS. Once applied the need for reapplication depends on reapplications based on factors like climatic conditions, traffic volume, frequency, and soil types (Sand, Clay, Loam, Chalk, etc.)
