Description

In this course here, we'll be having a discussion on dust explosions.There are many examples of dust explosions happening all over the world, and in the past losses, there are all something in common they could have been prevented if someone identified that there was a dust explosion potential, and done something. In this course, we'll be discussing the key ingredients of dust explosions - there are 5 of them. We need all 5 of them together to cause an explosion. By being aware to these 5 key ingredients, we could potentially identify possible dust explosions hazards.Identifying a hazard is the first step to preventing or mitigating losses. But identifying it without further action won't help. Hence, we'll next look at ways that we could do to prevent or mitigate the loss. Preventing or eliminating the hazard means not allowing it to happen at all. To prevent the hazard from occurring, we have to eliminate some of the ingredients of the dust explosion. However, somes, it's not practical to eliminate the hazard totally.Hence, we also talk about other ways to minimize its impact or how to mitigate them. In this case, we still explosion is still allowed to occur, but we minimize its impact. In this course, we'll talk about examples of ways to mitigate the dust explosion risks here. Do note that as this course is an introductory course, we will not be going into details on how to design the different types of mitigation actions. Why do dust explosions happen, and how should we mitigate them? Find out in this course now!
