Explosibility of metallic waste dusts

The SET results are compared with the standard flammability classification obtained according to ISO, 2016ISO/IEC 80079:2016, with the standard KSt measurement in the 20-L Siwek Sphere, and with tests in the 20-L sphere with 2 × 1 kJ igniters, respectively according to the UNI EN 14034: 2011 part 2 and part 3. Moreover, the morphology and chemical nature of the dusts have also been determined and their effects on dust explosibility are discussed.
