《GB/T 37241-2018惰化防爆指南》由TC288(全国安全生产标准化技术委员会)归口,TC288SC5(全国安全生产标准化技术委员会粉尘防爆分会)执行,主管部门为应急管理部。


Introduction

Interpretation of the core content of the standard

Inerting explosion-proof technology: An engineering control method that reduces the oxygen concentration of the combustible mixture to below the limit value (LOC) by filling the system with inert media such as nitrogen and carbon dioxide.

Comparative Analysis of Inerting Methods

Method Applicable Conditions Number of Air Changes Energy Efficiency Ratio
Pressure Inerting Pressure Equipment (≥0.1MPa) 3-5 Times ★★★★
Vacuum Inerting Negative Pressure System 2-3 Times ★★★☆
Purge Inerting Normal Pressure Open System 5-10 times the volume ★★☆☆

Key parameter calculation

Three-level setting of safety margin

  • LOC: Experimental determination of limiting oxygen concentration
  • MAOC = LOC - 2% (normal operating conditions)
  • TPSS = MAOC ×60% (continuous monitoring)

Example: If the LOC of a certain coal powder is 12%, the operating MAOC should be ≤10%, and the interlock shutdown value should be ≤6%


Typical application cases

Inerting of coal chemical pulverizing system

Using class=instrument>Flue gas + nitrogen double inerting, control oxygen concentration <8%:

  1. Oxygen concentration monitoring point is set at the outlet of the hot blast furnace
  2. Negative pressure protection is implemented for the coal powder collector
  3. Rotary valve is equipped with nitrogen seal

Implementation suggestions

Key points for selecting oxygen monitoring system

Electrochemical type Applicable to conventional industrial environments, with a service life of 12 months
Zirconium oxide type High temperature conditions (>550℃), response speed <1s
Paramagnetic type High-precision measurement, requiring a matching sampling system

Note: The difference in wet/dry basis measurements needs to be calibrated, and water vapor is counted as an inert component
