The case study is related to the risk assessmentperformed to fullfill ATEX regulations in a food industry.The plant produces food stabilizers, ingredients, starchesand gums.The raw materials arrive to the plant as powders,contained in bags. The powders pass through hoppers tobe homogenized and sieves and then they are mixedtogether and packed.In each step of the manufacturing the movement of thepowders can generate potential explosive atmosphere ...

In order to proceed with the explosion risk assessment, it's necessary tocollect data about the facilities of the plant, the productive process, thepresence of suction systems, and above ali the characteristics of the rawmaterials that produce the explosive atmosphere.For the purposes of this document, the main terms and definition areillustrated below: Lower Explosive Limit (LEL): the lowest concentration (percentage)
of a gas or a vapor in air capable of producing a flash of fire inpresence of an ignition source (are, flame, heat). The term isconsidered to be the same as the lower flammable limit (LFL). At aconcentration in air lower than the LEL are gas mixtures are "toolean" t o burn. Methane gas has a LEL of S0/o. If the atmosphere hasless than S0/o methane, an explosion cannot occur even if a source ofignition is present.
Minimum ignition temperature of an explosive atmosphere: thelowest temperature of a hot surface that will cause a dust cloud, ratherthan a dust layer, to ignite and propagate flame.

Explosion Index (Kst): explosive property measured in the laboratoryto quantify the severity of a dust explosion. The Kst value is calculatedas the equivalent pressure in a 1 m 3 sphere from the cube law (Kstvalue =cube root of volume x explosion pressure rise). The ST classis based on the Kst value as follows: ST class O - Kst value =O
ST class 1 - Kst value less than 200 bar m / sec ST class 2 - Kst value between 200 and 300 bar m/ sec ST class 3 - Kst value greater than 300 bar m / sec;
Minimum Ignition Energy (MIE): minimum amount of energyrequired to ignite a combustible vapor, gas or dust cloud.

The explosion risk assessment requires 5 different steps:1. Identification of explosion hazard and estimation of
probability of occurrence of a hazardous explosiveatmosphere;
2. Identification of ignition hazards and determination of thelikelihood of occurrence of potential ignition sources;
3. Estimation of the possible effects of an explosion in caseof ignition;
4. Evaluation of the risk and whether the intended level ofprotection has been achieved;
5. Consideration of the measures to reduce the risks.

The classification of risk levels is determined by risk R calculatedwith the formula above.In the table below are the hazard classes and their descriptions.
Risk Value R Rischio DescriptionThe probability of an explosive atmospheres is high, there areeffective ignition sources and the exposure level is high, so withconsiderable damage to persons and property.The probability of propagation of the explosion is to be consideredsignificantThe probability of the presence of explosive atmospheres is limitedand there may be effective ignition sources. In case of explosion, theexposure level is moderate, then with moderate damage to personsand property.The probability of propagation of the explosion is to be consideredlimited .The probability of presence of an explosive atmosphere is extremelylimited, as well as the presence of effective ignition sources. Theexposure level is low, so with limited damage to persons andproperty.he probability of propagation of the explosion is to be consideredextremely limited.The presence of an explosive atmosphere is almost impossible orthere are no ignition sources effectively. The level of exposure isnegligible, so there are no damages to persons or property.The probability of propagation of the explosion is considerednegligible.

STEP 5. Consideration of the measures to reduce the risks
The necessity of having an explosive atmosphere together with on effectiveignition source, lead immediately to the basic principles for the reduction ofrisks:
a) Prevention:avoid or reduce explosive atmospheres; this objective can mainly beachieved by modifying either the concentration of the flammablesubstance to a value outside the explosion range or the concentrationof oxygen to a value below the limiting oxygen concentration (LOC);avoid any possible effective ignition source;
h) Protection:halting the explosion and/or limiting the range to a sufficient level byprotection methods, e.g. isolation, venting, suppression andcontainment; in contrast to the two measures described above, here theoccurrence of an explosion is accepted.

The basic elements for establishing the hazardous zone types are:1. the source of release - a point or location !rom which a
gas/liquid/dust may be released into the atmosphere so that anexplosive atmosphere could be formed;
2. the grade of release - there three basic grades of release, as listedbelow in order of decreasing frequency and likelihood of theexplosive atmosphere being present: continuous, primary andsecondary grade.
I t is necessary, first of ali, t o determine the grade of release inaccordance with the definitions, by establishing the likely frequencyand duration of the release.Having established the grade of the release, it is necessary todetermine the release rate and other factors, which may influence thetype and extent of the zone.In the following table the area classification results for line A areshown:

The risk assessment approach described taken into account the mainrequirement steps indicated by EN 1127:1 standard and by law no. 81 ofApr. 9th, 2008; moreover, this approach allows to quantify the effectivenessof prevention and protection measures in order to reduce the risk.The main difficulty of this analysis is to have the technical documentation,especially when the equipment are installed before the MachineryDirective. In this case, on-site visits with the technical staff should bemade.The results of this analysis should be included in the Document ofExplosion Protection, mandatory for Italian and European law.A similar approach can also be used for workplaces where there may beflammable gases, vapors and flammable liquid.
