The first true deadline for conducting dust hazard analyses (DHAs) has come and gone. But what has been learned, and how can the DHA be used to make a difference in safety? Successful strategies have been developed to fully utilize the lessons from a DHA to reduce the risks of combustible dust fires and explosions. Using the lessons already learned by others can reduce the resources required to successfully implement and sustain recommendations, as well as increase the efficiency with which the recommendations are resolved. This article will describe how to utilize the outcomes of a DHA to successfully improve the safety and management systems for your combustible dust process. Topics to be covered include: (1) solving problematic issues common in combustible dust processes; (2) using interim solutions; (3) prioritizing recommendations to address the highest risks first, balanced with achieving the largest risk reduction in the shortest amount of time; (4) developing pragmatic solutions to resolving DHA recommendations and reducing risk; and (5) documenting and managing information to prepare for your 5-year DHA revalidation.
