Explosion Science training course

29 April 2019

IChemE (Institution of Chemical Engineers) is running a two-day training course on the phenomenon of explosions, and the requirements of UK and EU regulations relating to health and safety in potentially explosive atmospheres. This is an excellent opportunity to understand the science behind explosions, their effects and consequences, and the regulatory requirements for a safe and compliant working environment.

Comprehensive Explosion Science takes place on 18–19 June at IChemE’s offices in Rugby, UK and is delivered in partnership with Gexcon, a world-leading company in the field of safety and risk management and advanced dispersion, explosion and fire-modelling.

Topics covered include gas and dust explosion theory, the DSEAR and ATEX regulations, ignition sources, hazardous area classification, risk assessment and protection concepts. The course will also examine several industrial explosions and the vital lessons that can be learnt from them.

If you are responsible for industrial premises that fall under the DSEAR or ATEX regulations, or are involved in designing new process plants or maintaining existing ones, this course will be of great benefit and is a must to ensure the safety of your assets.
More course details and a registration link are available at www.icheme.org/explosion-science. The course can also be delivered in-company. Please contact courses@icheme.org for a quotation.
