Acknowledgments
It is a pleasure to acknowledge my appreciation to people that inspired this manuscript. I am particularly indebted to George Petino, Jr., MME, P.E., Dust Explosion Consultant and owner of Hazards Research Corporation, who provided me with the opportunity to consult with facilities worldwide in mitigating their dust explosion hazards. His professional mentoring and guidance has been extraordinary.
I am also indebted to my son‐in‐law Jack Kehlenbeck who aided in compiling the manuscript, his computer skills are outstanding.
NFPA, National Fire Protection Association, must be applauded for their work in making and keeping the Standards on Explosion Protection by Deflagration Venting viable and progressive.
I must thank John Wiley & Sons, Inc., Project Editors Ms Beryl Mesiadhas, Michael Leventhal, Summers Scholl, and Vishnu Priya for their excellent professional guidance.
Finally, as always, I could accomplish nothing without the support and encouragement of my wife Jean.
