Título Fire hazards potential of static charge and other fire hazards in cotton ginning process - An investigative study.
Información bibliográfica Safety Wing, Central Labour Institute, Sion, Bombay-400 022, India, 1979, 12p.
Resumen The roller ginning process is described, and the static electricity hazard investigated: generation and accumulation of static charges during roller ginning were not sufficient to cause sparks and thus do not represent a fire hazard. Most fires occurring in cotton ginning factories were due to the absence of systematic inspection to identify and eliminate well-known fire hazards, and to lack of supervision, training and education. Recommendations aimed at preventing these hazards are made.
