Combustion Dust in Industry

Course No. M-1023

Credit: 1 PDH

Course Fee: $28.95 Purchase course

Subject Matter Expert: Steven G. Liescheidt, P.E., CSI-CCS, CCPR

 

Overview

A combustible dust explosion hazard may exist in a variety of industries, including: food, plastics, wood, rubber, furniture, textiles, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, dyes, coal, metals and fossil fuel power generation. The vast majority of natural and synthetic organic materials, as well as some metals, can form combustible dust. The primary factor in an assessment of these hazards is whether the dust is in fact combustible. Any “material that will burn in air” in a solid form can be explosive when in a finely divided form.

In this course the student will learn about hazards associated with combustible dusts, work practices and guidelines that reduce the potential for a combustible dust explosion, or that reduce the danger to employees if such an explosion occurs; and training to protect employees from these hazards.

The student is expected to read and review the material contained in Combustion Dust in Industry: Preventing and Mitigating the Effects of Fire and Explosions, U.S. Dept. of Labor SHIB 07-31-2005.

The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of ten (10) questions at the end of this course to obtain PDH credits.

  • Hazards associated with combustible dusts
