Coal fired power stations are at particular risk of dust fires and explosions unless effective precautions are taken to both reduce the likelihood of occurrence and ensure explosion protection measures are adequate. Plants runs at high speeds and temperatures and can be at risk of impact sparks, self-heating, frictional heating, and/or hot ember transfer. Plants at risk includes mills/crushers, pneumatic conveying systems, dust collectors, cyclones, belt conveyors, dust filters, silos, and hoppers.
