Assessment of Explosion Hazards of Unstable Substances
Means are required to assess hazards by small-scale experiments. Those commonly used are based upon the science of conventional explosives with important modifications. Several types of explosion may occur: a detonation, propagating supersonically; a deflagration, propagating subsonically; so-called homogeneous explosion in which reaction occurs almost simultaneously throughout the mass. The ev...
متن کاملExplosion dust particle size measurements.
In situ measurements of the sizes and concentrations of dust particles generated by the detonation of high explosives in clay soil near Leesville, La., sandy clay soil near Huntsville, Ala., and sandy soils near Orogrande, N.M. are reported. Measurements were generally made within 1 m of the surface (in one case 10 m) at distances ranging from 10 to approximately 50 m from the detonation point ...
متن کاملHealth hazards of cement dust.
Even in the 21st century, millions of people are working daily in a dusty environment. They are exposed to different types of health hazards such as fume, gases and dust, which are risk factors in developing occupational disease. Cement industry is involved in the development of structure of this advanced and modern world but generates dust during its production. Cement dust causes lung functio...
متن کاملFire and explosion hazards in operating theatres.
A high degree of safety from fires and explosions exists in operating theatres in the U.K. and this is reflected in the extremely low number of fatal and non-fatal accidents which occur. This has been achieved by safety precautions which in some respects have been over-careful and overexpensive. Antistatic precautions applied to the breathing circuit seem to have been the crucial factor in achi...
متن کاملOverall characterization of cork dust explosion.
Explosibility and ignitability studies of air/cork dust mixtures were conducted in a near-spherical 22.7 L explosibility test chamber using pyrotechnic ignitors and in a furnace of 1.23 L. The suspension dust burned as air-dispersed dust clouds and the uniformity of the dispersion inside the chamber was evaluated through optical dust probes. The range of tested particle sizes went from a mass m...
