History

Which combustion outcome arose when inadequate ventilation affected Byzantine 'Greek Fire' preparation?

A)Component thermal runaway
B)Uncontrolled static discharge
C)Dust explosion ignition
D)Catalyst surface poisoning

💡 Explanation

A dust explosion could occur because fine ingredient powders, mixed to prepare the fire mixture, explosively combusted when ignited due to insufficient ventilation during mixing creating a deflagration, therefore a runaway explosion occurs, rather than a controlled reaction inside the equipment.
