The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) has released the Preliminary First Draft of the proposed 2015 edition of NFPA 652. The standard will provide the basic principles of and requirements for identifying and managing fire and explosion hazards of combustible dusts and particulate solids. The standard will provide the user with general requirements and direct the user to the appropriate industry or commodity-specific NFPA standard for additional requirements.
The document establishes the basic principles and requirements that shall be applied to all facilities where combustible dusts or particulate solids are present. Where an industry or or commodity specific NFPA standard exists, its requirements shall be applied in addition to those in this standard. The proposed 2015 edition of NFPA 652 is very detailed in explaining specific definitions of all items contained in the document and applications where the standard will be applied.
