In early 2025, a limestone quarry in Ipoh, Malaysia, faced serious dust issues affecting nearby residents and the environment. Mr. Lim, the quarry’s operations director, contacted YG Machinery seeking an effective dust control solution. After thorough consultation, he selected YG’s dust suppression fog cannon for its high efficiency and affordability.

Malaysia Quarry Challenges: High Dust, Limited Control
Quarries in Malaysia often operate near residential zones, where dust pollution causes community complaints and legal issues. Traditional solutions such as water trucks and sprinklers proved inadequate for this quarry. They consumed large amounts of water, offered limited coverage, and required constant labor.
Mr. Lim needed a solution that was automatic, efficient, and compliant with environmental regulations. YG’s fog cannon dust suppression system provided the answer with its automated misting, wide spray range, and low water use.
YG Fog Cannon: Cleaner Air and Lower Costs
The fog cannon was deployed for 6 hours daily at the quarry’s crushing and loading areas. Within just two weeks, the site saw measurable improvements:
- Dust levels reduced by over 60%, verified through third-party testing
- Zero new complaints from local residents
- Lower equipment maintenance costs, due to reduced dust intake
- Water consumption decreased by 40%, compared to manual spraying
Additionally, YG’s technicians installed a timer-controlled fog cannon system, automating mist release during peak dust periods. Mr. Lim praised the outcome: “The fog cannon reduced costs and complaints. It’s quiet, efficient, and affordable — a smart investment for any site.”
Application Scenarios: Versatile Dust Suppression Solution
YG’s dust suppression fog cannon is suitable for a wide range of environments:
- Quarries and mining sites
- Demolition and construction zones
- Cement plants and coal stockpiles
- Landfills and waste transfer stations
The fine mist binds airborne particles, preventing dust from escaping into the air and surrounding areas. It performs better than traditional spraying methods, providing targeted dust control while saving water and labor costs.
