Dalla quarta di copertina
A large number of solid substances become explosive when in the form of a fine dust. These substances include organic materials, such as grain, sugar, wood, and coal; synthetic organics, such as plastics, dyes, foams, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals; and combustible metals, such as aluminium, magnesium, zinc, and iron. Dust Explosions in the Process Industries is the leading reference about dust explosions for professional readers, meeting the needs of process safety engineers, plus fire and combustion engineers and all professionals who need to understand, handle and control potentially explosive dusts or dusty environments. The fourth edition of Dust Explosions in the Process Industries provide a comprehensive reference that is more practical for safety professionals than previous editions, while retaining its unique focus on the theory and technology of dust explosions that engineers working in this field must understand.
