Download or read book Electrostatic Hazards written by Günter Luttgens and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1997-06-19 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the US, UK and Europe there is in excess of one notifiable dust or electrostatic explosion every day of the year. This clearly makes the hazards associated with the handling of materials subject to either cause or react to electrostatic discharge of vital importance to anyone associated with their handling or industrial bulk use. This book provides a comprehensive guide to the dangers of static electricity and how to avoid them. It will prove invaluable to safety managers and professionals, as well as all personnel involved in the activities concerned, in the chemical, agricultural, pharmaceutical and petrochemical process industries. Electrostatic Hazards makes extended use of case studies to illustrate the principles being expounded, thereby making it far more open, accessible and attractive to the practitioner in industry than the highly theoretical texts which are also available. The authors have many years' experience in the area behind them, including the professional teaching of the content provided here. Günter Lüttgens is a widely acknowledged consultant who travels Europe providing training to major industrial corporations on this subject, whilst Norman Wilson practices what is written here in his professional capacity with the British Textile Technology Group. - Extended use of case studies to illustrate the principles.This makes the book far more open, accessible and attractive to the practitioner in industry than the highly theoretical texts also available - Authors have many years experience in the area - Both authors have been widely published with considerable previous book-writing experience

Download or read book Accumulation of Static Electricity on Arctic Clothing written by J. H.. Veghte and published by . This book was released on 1963 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electrostatic voltages and capacitance on active men wearing various arctic clothing assemblies were measured at temperatures ranging from 5 to -43 C. Although there is an increase of electrostatic charges on arctic clothing assemblies with a decrease in ambient temper ature, the stored energy calculations indicate there is no danger of igniting explosive gas-air mixtures due to a discharge of the electrostatic charges under normal conditions. A hazard may exist, however, if a person rapidly removes his outer jacket while working outside in a hazardous gas-air mixture. Also, a definite buildup of electrostatic charges above the critical thresh old for igniting a concentrated gas-air mixture by an electrostatic discharge exists when a person working out-of-doors comes in and removes his parka or wool shirt without first properly grounding himself.
