IC-oilIC: an effective way to reduce dust concentrations  

Introducing a fine film of oil into a broiler house is a highly effective method of reducing dust concentrations in the house and lowering dust emissions. Special nozzles spray a film of oil into the room housing the animals for a period of 60 seconds once a day. This oil causes the dust to stick to surfaces, and animal activity does not make the dust recirculate in the ambient air.

By spraying 10 to 15 ml IC-green oil per m2 of floor surface area per day, dust reductions of 54% were noted in broiler houses. IC-oilIC can work problem-free for an extremely long period without requiring any particular maintenance.

Moreover, the system offers significant advantages compared with alternative systems that only remove dust from the outgoing air. The dust concentration in the house is also considerably reduced. An improvement for the animals and the people caring for them.
