Will this create an explosion hazard?

Question

Can I safely grind Malt Combings in my ballmill using steel balls as media? Will this go bang! if air, dust and spark from steel balls are at the correct concentration?

Throw in a piece of burning newspaper and close the vessel. The resulting oxygen level will be too low to support a subsequent dust explosion.

Answer 5

This really IS a complex question to answer.

How high is the moisture content in the malt combings? High moisture content should r****d heat accumulation, as well as limit aerosol/fine particulate suspension, both contributing factors to an explosion.

This should not be considered as professional advice.
