This book provides a comprehensive and scientifically rigorous exploration of dust explosion hazards, with a specific focus on both pharmaceutical and food industries. It systematically examines the fundamental and applied aspects of dust explosion safety, integrating key concepts from physical chemistry, engineering, and risk management fields. • Introduces the concept of dust explosions, defining their nature, causes, and most influencing factors. • Presents case studies as well as an in-depth review of significant accidents over the past 50 years in both pharma and food industries, highlighting lessons learned and the ongoing challenges in preventing such accidents. • Delves into the phenomenology of organic dust explosions, elucidating the physicochemical phenomena underlying the ignition and propagation of dust explosions. • Addresses the experimental methodologies used to characterize dust explosion hazards. • Explores risk mitigation strategies and protective measures tailored to the characteristics of the specific organic dusts and industrial equipment treated in the book. By synthesizing the latest knowledge and addressing both theoretical and practical aspects, this book serves as a resource for a wide range of readers, including safety professionals, engineers, researchers, and students. It will not only equip readers with the tools to assess and mitigate explosion risks but also aim to inspire ongoing research and innovation in this critical area of industrial safety.
