During these processes, explosive mixtures can be created. <\/p>\n<h4>Power plants<\/h4>\n<p>From lump coal that is not explosive in combination with air, coal dust can be generated by transportation, grinding and drying that can form explosive dust\/air mixtures.<\/p>\n<h4>Pharmaceutical industry<\/h4>\n<p>In pharmaceutical production, alcohol is often used as a solvent. In addition, additives and excipients, for example lactose, may be used that can cause a dust explosion. <\/p>\n<h4>Graphic industry<\/h4>\n<p>The printing process is traditionally carried out using hexane or toluene, making explosion hazards a direct consequence of the process. Also, dust explosion hazards can occur from dust released during paper cutting. <\/p>\n<h4>Wood processing industry<\/h4>\n<p>The machining of wooden workpieces releases wood dust that can form explosive dust\/air mixtures, for example, in filters or silos.<\/p>\n                    <\/div>\n        \n        <div class=\"img-holder\">\n            <img src='https:\/\/capestone.teamcreative.cloud\/media\/2022\/05\/Energie-centrale.jpg' srcset='https:\/\/capestone.teamcreative.cloud\/media\/2022\/05\/Energie-centrale.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/capestone.teamcreative.cloud\/media\/2022\/05\/Energie-centrale-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/capestone.teamcreative.cloud\/media\/2022\/05\/Energie-centrale-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/capestone.teamcreative.cloud\/media\/2022\/05\/Energie-centrale-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/capestone.teamcreative.cloud\/media\/2022\/05\/Energie-centrale-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/capestone.teamcreative.cloud\/media\/2022\/05\/Energie-centrale-1619x1080.jpg 1619w, https:\/\/capestone.teamcreative.cloud\/media\/2022\/05\/Energie-centrale-1360x907.jpg 1360w, https:\/\/capestone.teamcreative.cloud\/media\/2022\/05\/Energie-centrale-680x454.jpg 680w, https:\/\/capestone.teamcreative.cloud\/media\/2022\/05\/Energie-centrale-454x303.jpg 454w, https:\/\/capestone.teamcreative.cloud\/media\/2022\/05\/Energie-centrale-340x227.jpg 340w, https:\/\/capestone.teamcreative.cloud\/media\/2022\/05\/Energie-centrale-600x400.jpg 600w' sizes=\"auto, 100vw\" loading='lazy' width='2000' height='1334' alt='Energie centrale ATEX' >        <\/div>\n        \n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<!-- acf\/basic-text-text -->\n\n<div class=\"content100 basic-text-text100 bg-blue\">\n    \n    \n    <div class=\"content basic-text-text\">\n\n                \n        <div class=\"txt-holder left wysiwyg diapositive\">\n            <h4>Agriculture<\/h4>\n<p>Biogas extraction plants are operated in some farms. When biogas escapes, for example due to leaks, explosive biogas\/air mixtures can be created. <\/p>\n<h4>Food industry<\/h4>\n<p>This industry often works with flammable solids. During pneumatic transport, for example, an explosive mixture is then created in the system or when storing solids in a tank storage. <\/p>\n<h4>Paint spraying companies<\/h4>\n<p>The overspray created when spraying surfaces with spray guns in spray booths, like the vapors released from solvents, can form an explosive atmosphere with air.<\/p>\n<h4>Logistics<\/h4>\n<p>Explosion hazards can occur during ship storage and transshipment, transport by tankers, and during loading and unloading.<\/p>\n<h4>Metal Processing<\/h4>\n<p>When casting products are made of metal, explosive metal dust can be generated during surface treatment (grinding). This is especially the case with light metals. This metal dust can create an explosion hazard in collectors.  <\/p>\n<h4>Oil and gas industry<\/h4>\n<p>Explosion hazards may occur when extracting oil and gas through deep drilling and during the period of oil and gas production. Explosive gas\/air mixtures can also be formed when natural gas is released through leaks and the like. <\/p>\n        <\/div>\n        \n        <div class=\"txt-holder right wysiwyg diapositive\">\n            <h4>Refineries<\/h4>\n<p>The hydrocarbons used in refineries are all flammable and, depending on their flash point, can create an explosive atmosphere even at ambient temperature. The area surrounding petroleum processing plants is usually considered an explosion hazard. <\/p>\n<h4>Recycling companies<\/h4>\n<p>For example, when recycling waste, explosion hazards can arise from cans and other containers containing flammable gases and\/or liquids that have not been cleared of residue, or from dust from paper or plastic.<\/p>\n<h4>Shipbuilding industry<\/h4>\n<p>During ship conversions, explosive atmospheres can easily occur as flammable materials are left in confined spaces.<\/p>\n<h4>Tankcleaning<\/h4>\n<p>The residue at the bottom of the tank is removed with flammable solvents, among other things. The removal is done under high pressure by using a spray head where an explosive mist may be produced. <\/p>\n<h4>Feed industry<\/h4>\n<p>During transport and storage of cereal grains, sugar, etc., explosive substances can be generated. If these are extracted and separated into filters, an explosive atmosphere may be created in the filter. <\/p>\n<h4>Civil engineering<\/h4>\n<p>Explosive gases from various sources can accumulate in poorly ventilated tunnels, basements, and so on.<\/p>\n        <\/div>\n        \n        \n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<!-- acf\/productgroups-featured -->\n\n<div class=\"content100 products-featured100 bg-gray\">\n    <div class=\"content products-featured\">\n        \n        <h2>ATEX certified products<\/h2>\n        <div class=\"products\">\n                            \n                <div class=\"product\">\n                    <div class=\"flex-container\">\n                        <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"340\" height=\"507\" src=\"https:\/\/capestone.teamcreative.cloud\/media\/2023\/04\/IS520.1_1-340x507.png\" class=\"attachment-img340 size-img340 wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/capestone.teamcreative.cloud\/media\/2023\/04\/IS520.1_1-340x507.png 340w, https:\/\/capestone.teamcreative.cloud\/media\/2023\/04\/IS520.1_1-201x300.png 201w, https:\/\/capestone.teamcreative.cloud\/media\/2023\/04\/IS520.1_1.png 402w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 340px) 100vw, 340px\" \/>                    <\/div>\n\n                    <h3>i.Safe MOBILE IS530.1 with camera<\/h3>\n                                            <p class=\"usp\">\n                            <i class=\"fal fa-check-circle\"><\/i>Android\u2122 10                        <\/p>\n                                            <p class=\"usp\">\n                            <i class=\"fal fa-check-circle\"><\/i>Push-To-Talk                        <\/p>\n                                            <p class=\"usp\">\n                            <i class=\"fal fa-check-circle\"><\/i>IP68 stof- en waterdicht                        <\/p>\n                                        \n                    <a href=\"https:\/\/capestone.teamcreative.cloud\/en\/product\/i-safe-mobile-is530-1-with-camera\/\" class=\"btn-full-orange\" title=\"i.Safe MOBILE IS530.1 with camera\">\n                        View product                    <\/a>\n                <\/div>\n\n                    <\/div>\n\n                    <div class=\"btn-holder\">\n                <a class=\"btn-full-blue\" href=\"https:\/\/www.capestone.com\/product-categorie\/rugged-atex-mobile-phones\/atex-mobile-phones\/\" title=\"Bekijk alle ATEX certificeerde producten\">\n                    Bekijk alle ATEX certificeerde producten                <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n        \n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<!-- acf\/basic-text -->\n\n<div class=\"content100 basic-text100 bg-blue\">\n    \n    <div class=\"content basic-text\">\n\n        <div class=\"txt-holder wysiwyg diapositive\">\n            <h3>Occupations and explosion hazards<\/h3>\n<p>Some occupations have a higher risk of explosion hazards than others.
