  • Abstract
    Safety in the design and operation of coal systems in cement plants is a matter of following known design requirements and practices and following good operational and maintenance procedures. Coal is a fuel, and under the right conditions, can explode and burn. Good alarms and protective devices, coupled with good cleanup and safe maintenance practices, can overcome a potentially hazardous operation.
