Hester Industries: Whirl / Wet Combines
High Efficiency Wet Dust Collection with
Low Maintenance and Operating Costs

Chicken processor Hester Industries bought a polypro Whirl/Wet to serve the breading operation
at the company’s Moorefield, WV plant. The breading generated fugitive dust; the bag collectors
originally installed to collect the sticky dust were not adequate to the task.

The hygroscopic nature of the dust made the Whirl / Wet dust collector a cost-effective choice.
Excess spice/flour dust is collected using water as the media, and periodically dumped as a
slurry into a sanitary sewer.

Hester added a second Whirl/Wet when the operation expanded. Recently, agribusiness
giant ConAgra acquired Hester Industries, noted the performance efficiency of the Whirl/Wet
and specified a Whirl/Wet for the Farmersville, LA ConAgra plant.

Whirl / Wet is ideally suited to a wide variety of dusts, including those generated by
hygroscopic food and beverage ingredients.
