Matt Williamson Speaking at AOCS 2026

ADF Engineering’s Matt Williamson, P.E. will be presenting at this year’s AOCS Annual Meeting & Expo.

His presentation, From Powder to Protection: Translating Data into Dust Explosion Prevention Under NFPA 660, provides a data-backed, framework for addressing combustible dust in the oilseeds industry.

Attendees will learn:

• How particle size, moisture, oil content, and processing variables influence combustibility
  
• What NFPA 660 requires from Oilseed Processing Facilities
  
• Practical case studies from oilseed and ingredient facilities (silos, conveying systems, elevators, packaging lines, mixed-material dust testing)
  
• How material scientists and process developers can incorporate dust-explosion thinking early, improving both safety and process reliability
  
• Industry lessons learned from 150+ DHAs and cross-facility benchmarking

If you’re attending AOCS 2026, be sure to add Matt’s presentation to your agenda. This must-attend presentation provides a data-driven approach to dust safety that supports innovation, scale-up, and regulatory readiness.
