Starch dust

It was for reasons such as the above that a starch dust plant recently constructed in the southwest, where weather conditions are moderate the year round, has been built entirely of open construction so that there is no confinement of the force of any explosion and the constant flow of air through the plant provides little opportunity for dust layers to build up...

No deaths occurred in groups of five male and five female rats that were exposed to a decabromobiphenyl dust mixture at concentrations ranging from 5 to 5,000 mg/m concurrently with starch dust (6 mg/m ) for 6 hours/day, 5 days/week for 4 weeks (Millischer et al. 1980). Information on lethality of inhaled hexabromobiphenyl PBB mixtures was not located. [Pg.57]

Starch dust can produce an extremely explosive mixture with air. All motors in confined areas must have explosion-proof ratings. The silo and all conveying equipment must be grounded to eliminate static electricity. Furthermore, starch silos must be equipped with an explosion relief deck to provide an escape route in case of a dust explosion. Another requirement is a vacuum relief valve to prevent the silo from caving in, in case a starch bridge in the silo suddenly collapses. The starch content in the... [Pg.672]
