Process & Dust Safety Risks in the Oilseed Industry

***Watch this presentation on-demand following the 2024 AOCS Annual Meeting & Expo***

Hexane is not the only process safety risk in the oilseed industry. Even mechanical extraction facilities, crush preparation upstream of extraction, and oil refineries face safety challenges from combustible dusts and other process safety risks.
Process Safety Management programs carefully govern hexane storage and handling in the U.S., but what regulations and best practices apply to safety in other areas of an oilseeds plant? What are some of the other hazards and how are they most commonly and effectively addressed? This presentation will cover PSM requirements for solvent extraction as well as safety risk management practices across oilseeds facilities. Presented by ADF Engineering.
