Grain Dust Explosions
Four basic elements must be present for a grain dust explosion to occur: fuel, oxygen, confinement, and an ignition source. Fuel: dust particles from wheat, oats, barley, or other types of grain that are suspended in the air or layers of grain dust in a confined space. Oxygen: normal oxygen levels and a continuous air supply.

Progress in Energy and Combustion Science
Abstract. Lithium ion batteries (LIBs) are booming due to their high energy density, low maintenance, low self-discharge, quick charging and longevity advantages. However, the thermal stability of LIBs is relatively poor and their failure may cause fire and, under certain circumstances, explosion. The fire risk hinders the large scale
Why Do Batteries Sometimes Catch Fire and Explode?
Researchers have long known that high electric currents can lead to "thermal runaway" – a chain reaction that can cause a battery to overheat, catch fire, and explode. But without a reliable method to measure currents inside a resting battery, it has not been clear why some batteries go into thermal runaway, even when an EV is parked.
