CHARACTERIZATION IN TERMS OF EXPLOSION CHARACTERISTICS FOR A COMBUSTIBLE POWDER DERIVED FROM THE PROCESS OF MANUFACTURING ALUMINUM PACKAGING
Abstract
Accidental explosions and fires caused by combustible dusts dust are some of the most significant threats in many industries where layers of combustible dusts and clouds are formed as a result of technological processes. When there is a possibility of a combustible dust to occur during the process, as a residue or byproduct, safety measures need to be taken in order to protect the installations and personnel. In the process of manufacturing the aluminum packaging a combustible dust residue is formed. In the present paper experimental tests were performed in order to determine the composition and explosion properties such as minimum ignition concentration, maximum explosion pressure, minimum ignition energy, minimum ignition temperature of dust layer and dust cloud, parameters needed to take the appropriate measures to ensure work and installation safety.
