[0002] Tea is a processed value-added product, and tea refining is a crucial step in tea processing. It is a systematic process that aims to improve the quality, taste and appearance of tea. A standardized tea production line not only reduces the loss of tea during processing, but also greatly improves production efficiency.

[0003] However, a large amount of organic dust is generated during tea processing. The characteristics of dust include small particle size, flammability and adsorption. Most of the dust particles are smaller than 5 microns and are easily inhaled by the human body, causing damage to the respiratory system and the environment. At present, there is a problem of poor dust removal effect in tea processing equipment, which has forced factories to rely on more primitive protective measures, such as requiring workers to wear masks and use protective shields. Although these measures can reduce workers' direct inhalation of dust to a certain extent, they cannot fundamentally solve the problem of dust particle diffusion and treatment, nor can they effectively control the impact of dust on the environment.
