Abstract
Dry dust collectors are a typical dust and gas coexistence space. Dust explosion risk assessments should be performed for effective prevention and control of dust explosion accidents. In this paper, a dust explosion risk assessment index system for dust removal systems was constructed following the dust characteristics and the actual operation of a dry dust collector. The proposed system consisted of three first-level indexes (dust explosion characteristic parameters, environmental parameters in the dust collector box, use state of explosion prevention and control device) and seven second-level indexes (dust explosion sensitivity, dust explosion severity, temperature in the dust collector box, pressure difference between inlet and outlet, operating state of spark detection, operating the explosion venting disc, and operating state of the lock gas ash discharge valve). The analytic hierarchy process was adapted to calculate the weight of each index. Additionally, a dust explosion risk assessment model for the dust removal system was constructed using the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method to form a set of dust explosion risk assessment methods suitable for dry dust collectors. The risk of explosion was assessed at level II through the use of paper powder with a particle size of 75 μm, which means this method is reliable.
