Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This definitive guide is a combination and revision of IChemE's three well known practical texts on aspects of dust explosions. Covering a comprehensive range of topics including dust ignitability, flammability and explosibility characteristics, the guide also incorporates new research and information, particularly in relation to containment and venting of dust explosion.

Cover title: Dust explosion : prevention and protection : a practical guide.

Includes bibliographical references and index.
