Abstract: The article focuses on engineering and operational strategies for effective dust management in powder and bulk processing industries. It emphasizes controlling dust generation at its source through enclosed equipment design, managing displaced air with properly sized vents and filters, and employing local dust collection systems as secondary containment. Additionally, it highlights the importance of regular housekeeping using vacuum-based cleaning methods and maintaining dust control equipment to prevent system failures. Compliance with standards such as NFPA 660, which consolidates combustible dust safety guidelines, is presented as essential for minimizing fire and explosion risks. Integrating dust control measures into process design from the outset is recommended to enhance safety, product quality, and operational efficiency. [Extracted from the article]
