Powder Containment Course Gets Second Run

The Wolfson Centre for Bulk Solids Handling Technology is running a course to help those involved in handling powders to identify and assess risk within their processing systems. Now in its second year, the course is scheduled for 12 April 2011 and taking place at the Wolfson centre, University of Greenwich, Kent. At a cost of GBP420 per delegate, it is designed to educate on effective powder storage and the factors affecting the performance of materials, enabling delegates to improve efficiency of their processing systems.

Topics include: perceptions of dust and consequences of exposure; key principles and equipment for air flow capture systems, including HandSE Guidance HSG258; key principles and equipment for barrier systems; the Workplace Exposure Limit, equipment performance expectations and performance verification; factors affecting performance such as ergonomics, worker behaviour and powder characteristics; HandSE guidance for workplace exposure limit setting; and risk assessment approaches.

More information, downloadable forms and online booking are available from the bulk solids website. Numbers for the seminars are limited to allow delegates the time to discuss their own operational needs and problems.
