Explosion Protection for
Waste Management Industry
could be explosive environment!
Waste management sites create significant explosion risk, due to the melting pot of different combustive materials in the same location. Waste management logistic processes concern all types of flammable waste, which creates a potential explosion risk. This could be throughout the operation from goods into storage and processing.
Waste products of different industries (food, pharma, chemical, construction, etc.) often consist of flammable substances that, exposed to oxygen and an ignition source, can produce explosions. During the processes of collection, transportation and treatment, the vehicles and equipment working and handling in these environments needs to be explosion protected correctly, so that the risk of explosion can be avoided or minimized.

are mandatory
A forklift truck or industrial equipment could be a potential source of ignition of flammable substances. In hazardous areas, standard equipment is not suitable for handling and treating waste materials, as it may generate sparks and be responsible for the ignition, so it must be explosion proof protected.
Therefore, waste management firms should require to be aware of the ATEX and Explosion Proof directives when handling flammable materials and take appropriate measures to avoid the risk of explosions and remove any sources of ignition on mobile equipment.
