iron dust is one of the rarest nutrients for most marine life.

One issue with the NFPA codes is that they do not require existing facilities to retrofit to the new codes every time they change them, only for new facilities to be built within the specs of the new codes. Ideally OSHA should have shut the facility down after the first incident occurred, allowing them only to reopen after passing a good housekeeping inspection with a random follow-up. This could have prevented the rest of the following incidents.

Is there not an offence of corporate manslaughter in the US that this company could have been prosecuted with? It's hard to think of a more egregious case.

Still trying to understand why OSHA has taken so long to develop these dust standards...

Secondary dust explosions are far more hazardous than the primary explosion. It shows to go that house keeping is more than "shine & show", and is integral part of overall risk management.

I'd think they would clean the whole plant of the combustible dust that ignited after the initial incident that caused deaths. I'm sort of wondering why they were not made to do this after the first explosion.
Why was the hydrogen located at ground level. Hydrogen rises and therefor having piping overhead would be safer.
Also I'm sure changing the atmosphere conditions could have also helped the situation. For example decreasing the temperature can reduce issues with dust and fire.
