Safety engineering
in ANDRITZ SEPARATION drying plants
In this sector, dust explosions bear the highest risk potential. Measures must be implemented to prevent damage to individuals and to equipment as far as possible. Three requirements
must coincide to create a dust explosion:
Spark detection
If at least one of these requirements can be reliably excluded, there will be no explosion.
The primary safety measures derived from this and which are implemented in ANDRITZ
SEPARATION belt dryers are strong dilution of any dust concentrations occurring, as well
as monitoring of these concentrations and shutdown if approximately 10% of the lower
explosive limit is reached. Consistent operations under depleted oxygen atmosphere in all
conceivable operating modes, as practiced successfully in fluidized bed and drum drying
plants for more than two decades, mean that it is impossible for explosive mixtures to form.
This primary explosion protection guarantees the highest level of safety engineering.
Explosion extinguisher
In addition to these primary protection measures, the following secondary measures are
used, depending on the drying system concerned, in order to minimize the effect of possible
explosions on man and machine as far as possible.
Explosion suppression
Use of constructive explosion protection measures, such as explosion suppression or explosion pressure venting, e.g. for dust separators (filters, cyclones) and silos.
Safety has top priority in ANDRITZ

A careful analysis (ATEX) of the sewage sludge drying plants in consideration of the ATEX
of lignite,
directives (particularly 94/9/EC) and the related harmonized standards (particularly EN 1127-
1) is essential, particularly during start-up and shutdown procedures and in the event of
malfunctions.
