According to NFPA 68, corn starch has deflagration index of 202 bar-m/sec, based on this and your observations what Dust Hazard Class (Table 2.3) should each of the dust mixtures you made during the lab be and why?

Section 3: In Section 8 of the "Guidelines for combustible dust hazard analysis" book there are examples of dust hazard analysis for several different industrial processes. For one of these examples, describe how the hazard changes if the material used in the process is changed to the 6 different mixtures of dusts used in the experiment.

Section 4: Describe how the change in grade of steel wool changed the ignition behavior of the fuel and why you think these changes occurred.

Section 5: Describe how the change in grade of steel wool changed the burning behavior of the fuel and why you think these changes occurred.

Section 6: Describe how the change in grade of steel wool changed the maximum temperature for each fuel and why you think these changes occurred.
