7.2.6.8.4 – “no incendive
discharges will occur”
Safely
managing
the
occurrence
of
static
electricity
during
FIBC
(flexible
intermediate
bulk
container)
filling
and
emptying
operations
is
a
critical
concern
in
the
chemical
process
industry.
Static
discharges
from
a
FIBC
can
range
from
operator
nuisance
shocks
to
those
capable
of
igniting
flammable
gasses,
vapors
and
dusts.
By
using
a
FIBC
(or
bulk
bag)
with
static
protective
properties,
the
risk
of
a hazardous
static
discharge
is
significantly
reduced.
A
FIBC
made
of
CROHMIQ® static
protective FIBC fabric is a static dissipative (Type D) FIBC
not a static conductive (Type C) FIBC.
There
are
very
important
differences
between
antistatic Type
D
FIBC
and
earthed Type
C
FIBC,
specifically
on
the
mechanism
of
safety
from
static
discharges
and
proper
use.
Process
safety
experts
in
the
field
of
electrostatics,
and
static
hazards
have
written
articles
about
performance
and
test
standards
and
the
improved
safety
of
static dissapitive Type
D
FIBC.
CROHMIQ design engineers invented and patented the first fabric
for static protective Type D FIBC. TEXENE continues to perform
research and development on Type D FIBC and electrostatic phenomena
in
FIBC. |
