How ComDust (Combustible Dust) Affects Every Industry

发表 Fauske团队on 06.11.14

可悲的是,我今天早上读了另一篇关于可燃尘埃死亡的文章,”Second of Seven Workers Injured in GP ComDust Blast Dies". This time, in the wood pulp/paper industry.

We list on our website the number of industries we serve in our process safety and nuclear safety business. Among these, industries requiring process safety management or风险管理服务可用于稳定或易燃性问题include: pharmaceutical, food, agricultural, wood pulp/paper, plastics/polymers, cosmetic, and metals/or manufacturing, in general.可燃的灰尘事件在哪里发生图形

Here are some more ComDust manufacturing industry articles:

US Labor Department's OSHA cites 50 safety violations, proposes $917,000 in fines against Bostik Inc. following Middleton, Mass., explosion

田纳西工厂有五名工人死亡发现危险的危险

Unchecked dust explosions kill, injure hundreds of workers

这是化妆品行业的一些:

迪尔菲尔德海滩化妆品公司大火后数百人撤离

Explosion Rocks Chatsworth Cosmetic Firm

在化妆品工厂发生火灾,商品烧焦

而且,制药行业:

In Final Report on West Pharmaceutical Explosion, CSB Finds Inadequate Controls for Dust Hazards, Calls on North Carolina to Strengthen Fire Code on Combustible Dust

Food Industry:

美国劳工部的OSHA引用了伊利诺伊州斯蒂尔维尔的吉尔斯特·马里·李公司(Gilster-Mary Lee Corp.)

Plastics/Polymers Industry:

塑料中的闪光火灾复合植物伤害四名员工

These are just a few of the many stories out there. Yet, plant managers from every line of work call and tell us they can't convince management to have a simple, explosibility screening test (go/no-go) done. Too afraid of opening a costly can of worms? What are the savings of not? Injuries and lives lead the list of reasons why, obviously. Thinking you will wait for OSHA or some other Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) to require it of your plant is too late.

美国化学安全与危害调查委员会(USCSB)报告说,在1980年至2005年之间,普通工业至少发生了281起可燃的灰尘火灾和爆炸,这在美国造成了至少119起死亡和718次伤害。根据2008年至2012年的媒体报道,另外50起事件导致15例死亡和127人受伤。这些事件发生在广泛的行业中,涉及许多类型的可燃尘。不过,目前还有国家标准特定于可燃的尘埃危害工人保护;尽管OSHA有29CFR 1910.272(1987)。What Materials Are Involved in Combustible Dust Incidents   graphic

那么,谁负责防止工作场所中可燃的灰尘爆炸呢?谁有控制权?每个人。工厂/设施所有者,高层管理人员,员工,保险公司,政府监管机构(地方,州和联邦)。依从性和追溯性的确定由AHJ确定。AHJ可以是保险公司,建筑检查员,消防部门/消防元帅和OSHA。

我已经写了有关我们进行的测试类型的文章,从基本的爆炸性screeing测试(GO/NO-GO)到整个测试套件,以及如何收集和运送灰尘样品。为了安全起见,我们很乐意回答您对设施或更高UPS的任何问题。流程危害分析(PHA)可能是您整个设施安全计划的基础,以减轻任何风险。

希望不读另一个关于comdust受伤或死亡的故事。会喜欢的。
