Reducing dust pollution in the air in work areas is an important task in the field of occupational health and safety and environmental safety. A common means of reducing dust pollution in the air is to spray water into the dust cloud. However, in order to suppress dust effectively, it is necessary to understand the patterns of interaction between water droplets and dust. This paper presents the results of experimental studies to determine the mass of dust “captured” by a water droplet in motion. Empirical models were constructed based on the experiments. The construction of a numerical model for analyzing the dispersion of dust and water droplets in the air is considered.
