1 Chemical Process Safety

2 Outline of Lecture on Chemical Process Safety Inherent Safety Hazard Identification Risk Assessment Fire Protection

3 Inherently Safer Processes Reduction or elimination of the hazards associated with a process, and this reduction or elimination is permanent and inseparable from the process. Example: use a less toxic raw material to product a product.

4 Inherently Safer Process Methods Minimize:Reduce quantity of energy in process. Substitute:Use less hazardous raw materials. Moderate:Use lower temperatures and pressures. Simplify:Reduce unnecessary complexity in the design and operation. KISS: Keep it simple and safe!

5 Hazard Ident. / Risk Assess. Procedure HAZARD IDENTIFICATION METHODS: - Process hazard checklist - Hazard survey: DOW index - HAZOP hazard & operability study - Safety review System description Hazard identification Scenario identification Accident probability Accident consequences Risk determination risk & hazard acceptable ? Modify design Accept system Y N EXTREMES: - Low probability - Minimal consequences RISK ASSESSMENT: - What can go wrong & how ? - What are the chances ? - Consequences ?

6 Hazard Identification Why? To identify hazards so that they can be eliminated or controlled. How? Using a number of available procedures.

7 Relative Ranking Methods Provide a unitless number representing the relative hazard. Examples:Dow Fire and Explosion Index (F&EI) Dow Chemical Exposure Index (CEI) Case A > Case B

8 Dow Fire and Explosion Index Operates like an income tax form. Penalties for unsafe situations Credits for control and mitigation Produces a number - the bigger the number the greater the hazard. Only considers flammable materials Not effective for procedures.

9 Dow Chemical Exposure Index (CEI) Considers toxic materials only. Includes simple source and dispersion models. Not effective for procedures. Dow Criteria: If sum of F&EI and CEI > 128, then more detailed hazard review procedure required.

10 Hazard and Operability Studies (HAZOP) Can identify hazards due to fixed equipment and procedures. Is a huge effort. Provides a controlled mechanism to consider the things that can go wrong. Customized for each company. Improves process performance, quality, etc.

11 HAZOP Procedure Divide flow sheet into sections, i.e. reactor, storage. 2. Choose a study node, i.e. line, vessel, pump, operating instruction. 3. Describe its design intent. 4. Select a process parameter. 5. Apply a guide word. 6. Determine cause(s).

12 HAZOP Procedure Evaluate consequences/problems. 8. Recommend action: what? who? when? 9. Record info. 10. Repeat 5 to 9 for a new guide word. 11. Repeat 4 to 10 for a new process parameter. 12. Repeat 2 to 11 for a new study node. 13. Repeat 1 to 12 for a new flow sheet section.

13 HAZOP Summary Advantages: Meets regulatory requirements Plant operates better Less down time Product quality improved Employees are happier Disadvantages:Time, people and effort Information management problem

14 Fire Protection Problem: How to safely store flammable liquids and gases to prevent fires and explosions? Primary Design Objective: Prevent fires and explosions by preventing the existence of flammable mixtures. Secondary Design Objective: Reduce or eliminate ignition sources. Ignition Source Oxidant Fuel Remove this leg Reduce this leg

15 Design Objective: Prevent Flammable Mixtures (1) Fuel + (z) Oxygen ---> Products Fuel Oxygen Nitrogen Flammable UFL LFL

16 Taking a Vessel Out of Service - 1 Fuel Oxygen Nitrogen Flammable UFL LFL Depressurize vessel to atmospheric, then blow air into vessel. Air Line Start here - all fuel End here (all air)

17 Taking a Vessel Out of Service - 2 (1) Fuel + (z) Oxygen ---> Products Fuel Oxygen Nitrogen Flammable UFL LFL Air Line Add nitrogen to reduce fuel concentration.

18 Most Important Point of Lecture Chemicals used in chemical plants may be hazardous, but if you understand these hazardous properties and understand how they may cause accidents, then the chemicals can be handled safely.
