AB - In order to reduce the dust concentration in the port and ensure that the  dust concentration meets the requirements of environmental protection, a  combination of Boltzmann model and multiple linear regression model is  proposed to predict the continuous changes in dust concentration during the  loading and unloading process of imported and exported ores in the port. The  quantitative relationship between port dust concentration and falling mass  of mineral powder, wind speed, and moisture content of mineral powder is  simulated using the Boltzmann model and the multivariate linear regression  model. This quantitative relationship is an effective means of describing  the change in dust concentration and reducing the port dust concentration.  Moreover, the findings have the potential to enhance the quality of life for  those residing in the vicinity of the port.
