Worth A Second Look
Preventing Self-Heating and Ignition in Drying Operations
08/01/2011
Many solid materials can exhibit self-heating, which — if unchecked — can progress to a fire or even explosion. And even if the situation does not get that far, it is likely to affect the output of the process, in terms of product quality degradation, for example. Recognizing that your product in powder or granular form can self-heat is the first step in controlling the risks associated with self-heating. Whenever self-heating incidents are investigated, we find that a common root cause is a lack of understanding of self-heating phenomena. This article provides an introduction to self-heating phenomena and suggests measures to control this type of ignition source.
