Explosion behavior of hybrid mixtures

  • Flammable mixtures of dusts with gases or liquids occur in the process and energy industries. Most research about these so-called "hybrid mixtures" was, and still is, about coal dust with the admixture of methane because of their occurrence in the mining industry. In the modern industry, hybrid mixture explosions play an increasing role in many existing processes like spray-drying, or in emerging technologies like the direct reduction of iron ore with hydrogen or nuclear/fusion reactors. While some safety characteristics of one of the component substances stay the same or are unaffected by the concentrations that occur in the process, others are severely influenced by only traces of the other substance. This review paper shows in which processes and applications hybrid mixtures pose a risk and gives an overview of the research conducted in the last 150 years. Findings that are reproducible and represent current proven knowledge are stated and compared to each safety characteristicFlammable mixtures of dusts with gases or liquids occur in the process and energy industries.

This review paper shows in which processes and applications hybrid mixtures pose a risk and gives an overview of the research conducted in the last 150 years. Findings that are reproducible and represent current proven knowledge are stated and compared to each safety characteristic containing only solid particles, gases or liquids as combustible substances. Additionally, fundamental studies on the mechanisms of flame propagation in hybrid mixtures are reviewed. The significance of these studies in enhancing our understanding of explosion behaviors in hybrid mixtures is also discussed. An outlook on what has been missing so far in the literature, is also given comparing the knowledge of single substances with their mixtures, why this might not have been investigated, and where the challenges lie.zeige mehrzeige weniger
