Metal Ash Crust Explosion Animation

This 3D forensic animation takes the jury inside a scrap metal melt house and shows what happens when a fracture allows water to mix with metal dust leading to a metal crust of ash in the drop out box. The water from a leak pours into the drop out box. The water and heavier particles form a metal crush that insulates the heat. The employee takes a tractor to clean out the built up metal dust. After breaking through the metal ash crust in the drop out box a steam explosion occurs, leading to a burn injury. A hot, ash-like substance known as electric arc furnace steel dust, was poured on him.
