Spray Drying Safety Checklist

Use this Aviva-aligned spray drying checklist to manage combustible dust and explosion hazards across drying plants. Verify product testing parameters such as Layer Ignition Temperature, Minimum Ignition Temperature, Minimum Ignition Energy, Minimum Explosive Concentration, Kst and Pmax. Review process isolation, inlet air filtration and heating controls, atomiser safeguards, dust extraction design, temperature monitoring with alarms and shutdowns, DSEAR compliance, earthing and lightning protection, ATEX-rated components, automatic fire detection, fixed fire-fighting systems, explosion relief and suppression and propagation prevention, as well as maintenance, cleaning, training and safe startup and shutdown procedures.
