The book explains how to do a dust hazard assessment by using either an approach based on compliance with existing consensus standards, or by using a risk based approach.

Covered topics include background of the combustible dust fire and explosion hazard problem, a standards based approach to assessing combustible dust hazards, hazards inside dust processing equipment, hazards in dust handing buildings, a risk based approach to assessing combustible dust hazards, addressing risk issues in an existing facility, worked examples, and issues to watch out for
