Learning objectives
Propose tools to allow a multi-level approach to the problem:
-
Characterize dust (physical and chemical) to assess risk, diagnostic methods that can be used to characterize dust.
-
Characterize the surrounding dust environment, assess the possibility of cloud generation and identify potential sources of initiation.
-
Describe the explosion and evaluate the overpressure effects on structures by using models.
-
The expert's approach in the analysis of accidental risks associated with dust explosions.
