Abstract Description of an installation for collecting dust given off during the manufacture and handling of particulates for the pottery industry (pigments, glazes, etc.). A negative pressure is created at the work post but minimal particulate entrainment is ensured; provision is made for removing deposited dust from exhaust ventilation ducts. Data on system design and calculation are given.
