Abstract
Dust explosion, one of the most serious and wide spread explosion hazards, which is recently a topic of concern for the developed countries are not even identified as a serious threat in developing countries. In this paper we present a review on the concept of dust explosion, by critically reviewing the work done in this domain, a brief on the equipment used for studying this field, followed by possible directions this research could be furthered in.

Dust explosions–Cases, causes, consequences, and control

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the state-of-the-art of dust explosion state of the art, and present the ways available to prevent dust explosion, and on cushioning the impact of a dust explosion by venting when the accident does take place.

Overview of dust explosibility characteristics

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide information on the explosibility and ignitability properties of dust clouds that can be used to improve safety in industries that generate, process, use, or transport combustible dusts.

Mathematical Modelling and Analysis of Nano-dust Explosion

TL;DR: In this article, a mathematical model is developed to determine a practical solution for screening in terms of an equation and demonstrate that the equation is doing fair against the experimental data, which can assist the end-user in estimating the approximate value of overpressure and thus, in turn would largely govern further handling and analysis.
