The majority of dusts generated in industrial processes are combustible, placing thousands of facilities at risk for a dust explosion. How do you minimize risks in your facility? A Process Hazard Analysis (PHA) provides a systematic method for assessing hazards and determining action steps needed, and it is required under NFPA 654: Standard for the Prevention of Fire and Dust Explosions from the Manufacturing, Processing, and Handling of Combustible Particulate Solids. In this informative webinar, you will learn:
- The significance of NFPA 654 and changes introduced in the 2013 edition of the standard;
- What a PHA is and why you need to perform one;
- How to structure your PHA – including techniques for hazard identification, data collection and protection analysis
