Classification of Hazardous Areas - Biodiesel Vacuum Distillation
Anyone had experience of classification of hazardous areas for biodiesel (fatty acid methyl ester) vacuum distillation plant?. BD flash point = 130C, BD autoignition temp = 570C. BD vacuum distillation temp = 250C. In my opinion no haz area is created. Vacuum prevents any release of flammable liquid. If it was released it would immediately cool to below the flash point. Can anyone provide info on this
Many thanks
