| Abstract | An investigation of the effect of several variables on the lower explosive limit of dusts collected in terminal elevators indicates that particle size, and in particular the concentration of material finer that 150 mesh, has the most effect on the explosion hazard engendered by this material. The results suggest that the most effective method of controlling the hazard is efficient control of dust at all stages of grain handling coupled with separation and safe disposal of the finer fraction of the material discharged by the dust control cyclones. |
