Rechazos de aire reverso or Rechazos de aire de retorno


Explanation:
It should be "reverso" (male gender). In minning, the air goes in through the annular section (space between the drill and the container, i.e. pipe casing) and comes back to the surface via the drill tool. It is a reverse efect. Hope I had unserstood the question. It's my first participation.
