    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    CONTAINED IN VOL. 11.04, 2017 Defines general recommended design features and operating practices for shredder explosion protection in resource recovery plants and other refuse processing facilities.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    1.1 This practice covers general recommended design features and operating practices for shredder explosion protection in resource recovery plants and other refuse processing facilities.

    1.2 Hammermills and other types of size reduction equipment (collectively termed shredders) are employed at many facilities that mechanically process solid wastes for resource recovery. Flammable or explosive materials (for example, gases, vapors, powders, and commercial and military explosives) may be present in the as-received waste stream. There is potential for these materials to be released, dispersed, and ignited within or near a shredder. Therefore, explosion prevention and damage amelioration provisions are required.
