The standard also includes requirements for quality control of new and recycled media.2. Description2.1 enCAPSULATeD AbrASive MeDiA: Encapsulated abrasive media consist of natural or m

3、anufactured abrasive grains surrounded by a dry, compressible, open-cell material. These abrasives are used to reduce dust generation and ricochet damage to adjacent surfaces when blast cleaning, and to “feather” the edges of intact coating during spot repair procedures of coatings on steel and othe

4、r substrates. During the recycling process, the media is cleaned to remove abrasive fines and debris, including paint, rust, mill scale, and other contaminants.2.2 reCYCLeD AbrASive WorKinG MiX: The working mix develops during blast cleaning and recycling, and is composed of new and recycled encapsu

21、ractor shall process the media through a flat deck, vibratory screen classifier that separates both oversized and undersized particles; or other unit shown to meet the dust control requirements of Section 4.2. New media shall be added to the working mix as necessary to deliver the specified surface

The rejected material that passes through the bottom sieve is collected, the weight or volume is measured, and the material is labeled and set aside. Step b. The remaining media from Step A is passed through the classifier a second time. The
