... and accumulation of electrostatic charges. Electrostatic charge generation most commonly occurs whenever two materials, liquids and/or solids, make and then break contact with each other. The accumulation of the electrostatic charge can result in electrostatic discharges. This suggests that there are many...

... Introduction Often, an electrostatic ignition hazard arises when the electrostatic charge generated in a process is allowed to accumulate to levels sufficient to give rise to electrostatic discharges. Thus, the first step in an electrostatic hazard assessment is identifying where...

... power generation. There are often two types of explosions involved: (1) Primary (when dust suspension is ignited and explodes); and (2) Secondary (when dust accumulations on floor and surfaces ignites from primary explosion). The secondary explosions are often more deadly and damaging, and chain...
