A study of deflagration to detonation transition in pipes, for gas/air and dust mixtures, has been made and reported. Obviously it depends upon the exact mixture, but departures from the straight and narrow generally facilitate this transition from slight to seriously destructive over-pressures.

The analytical use of the alloy to reduce nitrates is usually accompanied by the risk of a hydrogen explosion, particularly if heating is effected by flame. Use of a safety screen and flameless heating, coupled with displacement of hydrogen by an inert gas, are recommended precautions [1]. The explosion was later attributed to gas pressure in a restricted system [2].
