IS7008 SAFETY IN POWDER HANDLING L T P C 3 0 0 3
UNIT I INTRODUCTION 8
Powder classification-physical, chemical and other properties-metal powders-other non-metallic
powders-handling methods-manual, mechanical, automatic-charges on powders-charge distributioncharging
of powders.
UNIT II METAL POWDERS AND CHARACTERIZATION 10
Atomization, types – milling – electro deposition – spray drying, Production of iron powder, Aluminium
powder, Titanium – screening and cleaning of metals – Explosivity and pyrophoricity – toxicity
Particle size and size distribution – measurement, types and significance – particle shape analysis,
methods, surface area, density, porosity, flowrate – testing.
Metal powders, applications as fuel, solid propellants, explosives, pyrotechnics.
20
UNIT III DUST EXPLOSION 9

concentration, minimum ignition energy, explosion pressure characteristics, maximum permissible
oxygen concentration- explosibility tests, Hartmann vertical tube apparatus, horizontal tube apparatus,
inflammatory apparatus, Godbert and Greenward furnace. Explosibility classification – Hybrid test –
gas mixtures – Dust ignition sources – Dust explosion prevention – Dust explosion protection – Dust
explosion venting, vent coefficient, various methods of design – venting of ducts and pipes – dust fire.

silos, grain elevators, typical applications, hazards.
Electrostatic charges-energy released-type of discharge-spark-carona-insulating powders-propagating
brush discharge-discharge in bulk lightning hazards in powder coating-electroplating.
UNIT V DUST EVALUATION AND CONTROL 9
Evaluation, methodology, Quantitative, sampling, measurements – control approaches and strategies
– control of dust sources, dust transmission – role of workers, PPE and work practice – House
keeping – storage –labelling – warning sign – restricted areas - Environmental protections.
Evaluation procedures and control measures for particulates (Respirable), Asbestos and other fibres,
silica in coal mine - NIOSH guide to the selection and use of particulate respirators – case studies.
