Aspects of explosion risk assessment in the case of bucket elevators

Many of the technological processes that take place in installations which cereal products are transported and / or stored, involve existence combustible dusts. These dusts may be suspended air, form accumulations layers deposits dust various thicknesses, lead to fires, explosions catalytic decomposition presence oxygen. If swirling air appropriate proportions an effective source ignition is present, they can burn rapidly with considerable explosive force. Given most time, as a result explosion dust, resulting damage generally greater than caused by flammable gases, it necessary pay special attention way taken. implemented measures protect prevent dust. This paper highlights principles main factors must taken into account when conducting risk assessment for bucket elevator carrying grain products, order establish implement prevention protection ensure minimum level. acceptable risk.
