Year-1 DSP program cost composition
Where your year-1 DSP program spend goes — reduced cart operations,
reduced water purchases, and the DSP additive cost.
DSP additive volume schedule
Per Envirofluid Triple7 DSP guidance — additive volumes mixed into
water trucks at the prescribed concentration by phase.
What this could save you
Three scenarios reflecting realistic variation around Envirofluid's
published 51% water-reduction case study. Operational discipline
— consistent daily dosing, operator training — is the
single biggest swing factor.
Three steps to capture this
Concrete moves prioritised by impact and ease of implementation.
1
Trial Triple7 DSP on a single haul road
Pick your worst-performing road. Run the establishment phase
(3 days, 5 applications at 1.4%) followed by the 90-day build
(daily, 2%). Measure cart hours and grader hours pre and post.
~30–50% water reduction in steady state ~90 days to validate Low risk
2
Train operators on the dosing protocol
DSP is an additive — it goes in the existing water carts.
Operators need clear daily dosing percentages by phase: 1.4%
during the 3-day establishment, 2% during the 90-day build,
1% in maintenance.

3
Audit your water source costs
DSP combined with recycled or bore water is the lowest-cost
combination. If you're currently on town water, the savings
stack: DSP cuts volumes by ~50% and the source change cuts
$/kL by 60–80%.

Methodology & sources
- DSP dosing: Envirofluid Triple7 Dust Suppression Plus published guidance — 1.4% × 5 applications during 3-day establishment; 2% once-daily during 90-day build; 1% once-daily ongoing maintenance. Volume per application = road area × 0.15 L/m² (single wetting volume).
- Water cart baseline: Industry-typical daily water demand by traffic profile — light vehicles 30 kL/km/day, rigid haul 80 kL/km/day, ultra-class 160 kL/km/day. Climate multipliers: Pilbara 1.4×, Bowen 1.2×, Hunter 1.0×, temperate 0.7×.
- Cart economics: Cart productivity 65 kL/hr at $130/hr all-in operating cost. 320 working days per year.
- Water reduction with DSP: 50% of baseline (matching Envirofluid's published 51% case-study figure). The DSP-augmented program still uses water carts — it reduces frequency and total volume, not the fleet itself.
- Carbon: Diesel saved × 2.68 kgCO₂e/L (Australian National Greenhouse Account factor; cart fleet typical consumption 30 L/hr).
- DSP price: Currently set at a placeholder. Confirm current list price with Envirofluid for accurate cost figures.
- Estimates only — actual results vary by site, soil type, traffic patterns, seasonal variation, and operator discipline.
