Dust from cheo, "to pour," primarily, "earth dug out, an earth heap," then, "loose earth or dust," is used in Mar 6:11, Rev 18:19.

"raised or flying dust" (konia, "dust," ornumi, "to stir up"), is found in Mat 10:14, Luk 9:5, Luk 10:11, Act 13:51, Act 22:23.

primarily, "to winnow" (from likmos, "a winnowing-fan"), hence, "to scatter" as chaff or dust, is used in Mat 21:44, Luk 20:18, RV, "scatter as dust," AV, "grind to powder." There are indications in the papyri writings that the word came to denote "to ruin, to destroy."
