Ecological safety predictive modeling concerning fine cocoa dust dispersion, released by confectionery manufacture

Abstract

In order to predict ecological safety conserning cocoa dust emission (PM2,5 and PM10), the mathematical modeling of its dispersion was performed considering the atmosphere turbulent diffusion. Necessary gravity sedimentation rate of cocoa dust for modeling was identified during the experimental researches. Obtained results indicate the necessity of intensification of fine particles emission clean-up in the observed confectionery factory.
