Abstract

Gravel road dust has significant health effect. The study was conducted to assess road dust suppression effect of molasses stillage in gravel at a Sugarcane Estate in Zimbabwe. Three, 2 km long gravel road sections (steep, sloping and gentle) had the following dust suppression treatments applied to 500m long segments: (i) molasses stillage, (ii) water and (iii) control. Data on dust deposition rates were subjected to Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) to compare treatment means. Mean road dust deposition rates ranged from 998.46±50.04 to 6184.02±257 mg/m
