Control, Management and Traffic Control system. The advantage of this solution is that each subsystem can operate independently or completely integrated. One of the most recent projects where this system was integrated was the project in the port of Vysotsk, developed in 2021. The total annual capacity of the terminal is 4mt. Besides the Motor Control Centre and Control System, scope included the Terminal Management and Traffic Control System. Terminal Management System is a powerful software for real-time management of terminal operations. The software integrates commercial departments, scales, laboratories, technologists, control systems, and terminal management. It provides precise control of reception, condition, and delivery of goods. Additionally, it allows the management team to choose the calculation method for
the official quantities. This is either based on documents, measurement on scales, or its combination. The Terminal Management System provides fast and simple invoicing of terminal services. In large terminals, traffic congestion imposes a big challenge, especially during the truck reception of the grain. The problem occurs both at the terminal itself and on the access roads. This causes an increased air pollution, slower reception of the goods, as well as dissatisfaction within the local community. The Traffic Control System is an intelligent solution for traffic control within the terminal. The system ensures safe and continuous traffic flow of vehicles. It consists of: v mobile app identification system; v vehicle licence plate recognition system; v radio frequency identification system;
v vehicle signalling equipment; and v intercom system.

For the past 20 years the DSH dust suppression hopper has been a game changer in the dry bulk goods industry. When specified and installed correctly it offers a trouble-free, low cost, low dust solution for many years, and DSH’s wide range of hopper systems are perfectly suited to the grain industry, as well as huge

number of other materials. Available around the world, DSH systems are developed with site specific needs in mind and can be easily integrated into existing facilities with minimal disruption.
WHY CHOOSE A DSH SYSTEM? Where free-falling loose products from
conveyors or chutes create great quantities of dust through dispersion, the design of the DSH hopper naturally forces the product to form a tight compact column as it exits the unit. This column, which can be as tall as 20 metres (65ft), is almost completely free of air, so that when the product reaches the ground, ship, or other
