Facilities are often perplexed by how to mitigate the complex hazards associated with combustible dust. As a result, facilities often leave this decision to outside entities or choose the first method they find to alleviate the problem. This flawed decision-making process leads to an over-reliance on common explosion protection methods and ignores the process behind finding the most effective way to mitigate the hazard. This presentation will discuss the most effective ways to mitigate dust hazards using both common and uncommon hazard mitigation methods. We’ll also explore performance-based design methods.
