Interested in improving your process safety knowledge and practice? Check out this web page from the European Commission Joint Research Centre (EC-JRC) that provides a list of sources of chemical accident information. The web page contains links to open source databases, publications, and authorities that investigate and report on chemical accidents. Some of the sources include ARIA (France), IChemE Loss Prevention Bulletin, U.S. Chemical Safety Board, and Japanese Failure Knowledge Database. These are just some examples of the sources available on the web page. Find more sources covering different aspects and modes of chemical accidents, such as transportation, pipelines, munitions, etc. Learn from chemical accidents to prevent them in the future.

Join us tomorrow for our latest webinar where we will guide you through Reaction Calorimetry and associated techniques and discuss how you can obtain valuable and scalable data with respect to various reaction conditions. What you’ll learn: ✅ How and why chemical reactions and material reactivity are critical elements of safe processing, and how exothermic reactions pose the biggest risk. ✅ How to identify, assess, and characterise both intended and, more importantly, unintended exothermic reactions to ensure the safe scale-up and operation of a chemical process. ✅ Benefits of partnering with specialists at Sigma-HSE to create bespoke/customised Chemical Reaction Hazards testing conditions to match your process operation and prove your safety case.

@CSB ..Thanks for sharing. Now a days, considering mega capacity refinery, petrochemical plants and storage terminals, sometimes, complying CCPS flow chart, (Figure 15. Remote Isolation Decision flow chart. Credit: CCPS on page#17), asking for remotely operated isolation valve (ROSOV/EBV) for a system having chemical inventory more than 2000 gal, will end-up having too many ROSOV/EBV. PHA team always finds difficulty for selecting size of process loop for having ROSOV/EBV. It’s somewhat easy decision for storage tanks but difficult for process loops. Sometimes, too many EBV/ROSVO could result spurious operation, leading to process upset/production loss/ secondary process safety scenario. Hence, expertise of PHA team during design stage is highly crucial for having holistic approach by utilizing consequence/ QRA modeling, FTA tool, decision on realistic size of the process loop & inventory to be isolated in case of emergency, etc. While having highly conservative approach and having too many EBV/ROSVO, one must also consider mitigating secondary risk generated due to spurious operation of EBV/ROSOV.
The U.S. Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board (CSB) released a new Safety Study titled “Remote Isolation of Process Equipment” that issues recommendations to key regulators and calls for greater use of remote isolation equipment at chemical facilities in the United States.

This episode discusses the 1989 Pasadena chemical plant explosion that claimed 23 lives. The incident led to the modernization of process safety measures in the U.S. Trish Kerin and Traci Purdum emphasize the importance of dedicated firewater systems, meticulous maintenance procedures, and strategies to combat complacency. They also explore the use of case studies and emphasize the positive legacy of Mary Kay O'Connor, who was killed in this incident, in promoting process safety. https://lnkd.in/gE3T3XSz
