		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;Created Page + Added Basic Sections/Info&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;=Basics=&lt;br /&gt;
*An explosion causing a typically stable, yet combustable fuel to have more surface area (due to forming a dust cloud) and thus ignight and Deflagrate, and often Detonate&lt;br /&gt;
*Can lead to MAJOR industrial accidents [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dust_explosion#Notable_incidents SUCH AS]&lt;br /&gt;
*Main industries at risk are sugar mills, flour mills, metal powder production, saw mills, and essentially anything dealing with powder, or processes that can produce it&lt;br /&gt;
*The ignition source can be somthing as small as static electricity, or machine heat&lt;br /&gt;
*This is also the operating principle behind educational labs, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJ4A6bnzxvs entertainment devices] , and thermobaric explosives&lt;br /&gt;
=Avoidance Strategies=&lt;br /&gt;
==Dust Reduction==&lt;br /&gt;
*Source collection via shop vac attachments etc&lt;br /&gt;
*Collection devices such as [[Cyclonic Seperators]] and [[Electrostatic Precipitators]] as well as other [[Air Purifiers]] and [[Air Scrubbers]]&lt;br /&gt;
*Humidifiers to reduce dust levels&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Design Considerations==&lt;br /&gt;
*Close at risk areas off/modularise them&lt;br /&gt;
*Reducing oxygen (either by reducing the levels in the work area/room to lower levels, or via working under an inert atmosphere (may not need argon etc, notrogen should work assuming the process allows for it)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=See Also=&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Charcoal Powder]]&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Sawdust]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Useful Links=&lt;br /&gt;
*[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dust_explosion The Wikipedia Page on Dust Explosions]&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
