The main hazard of seed cake carriage is the risk of self-heating and spontaneous combustion due to the presence of residual oil and moisture. This process can be accelerated by microbiological activity and the oxidation of oil. Other hazards include oxygen depletion in the cargo hold and potential damage to the cargo itself. To mitigate these risks, seed cake must be properly aged, certified for its oil and moisture content, and transported in compliance with the IMDG Code, with specific fire-fighting requirements and precautions.
