Dust and combustible powder
- Many organic powders (sugars, starches, botanicals, vitamins) can form combustible dust clouds.
- Keep dust to a minimum: load and discharge slowly with a short drop height.
- Clean dust with an approved vacuum; never blow down with compressed air.
- Keep equipment earthed and remove ignition sources from the room.
- Wear a dust mask; report any respiratory or skin reaction to the supervisor.
