Use the essential steps and requirements outlined in NFPA 655: Standard for Prevention of Sulfur Fires and Explosions to eliminate or reduce hazards encountered in the crushing, grinding, and pulverizing of bulk and liquid sulfur. NFPA 655 also prescribes the safe handling of all forms of sulfur, including ground sulfur and molten sulfur.
