Study Notes
Plant and Equipment Safety
- Plant safety appraisal and control techniques focus on observing, inspecting, and sampling plant safety to identify hazards, analyze jobs, manage safety inventory, ensure product safety, utilize permit-to-work systems, safety tag systems, and control losses and damage.
- Safety surveys and job safety analysis are critical tools in this process, aiming to identify potential hazards and develop corrective actions.
Laws and Regulations
- Key regulations include the Manufacture, Storage, and Import of Hazardous Chemicals (Amendment) Rules of 2000, Chemical Accidents (Emergency Preparedness, Planning, and Response) Rules of 1986, and Hazardous Waste (Management, Handling, and Transboundary Movement) Rules of 2008. These rules govern the handling and management of hazardous materials.
Hazards and Risks
- Hazard identification techniques include inductive, deductive approaches, Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), and Cause Mapping Analysis (CMA).
- Fault tree analysis is used to understand the contributing factors in hazards and risks.
- Risk assessment techniques are crucial to evaluate the potential harm associated with identified hazards.
- Accurate accident investigation reporting and analysis are key to learning from past events and controlling performances.
Major Accident Hazard Control
- Understanding the concept, evaluation, and consequences of major accident hazards is vital. Hazard analysis techniques allow for the measurement and control of these events.
- Management, local authorities, and the public play roles in preventing and responding to major accident hazards.
- Detailed onsite and offsite emergency planning, often with case studies, is crucial for preparedness and response.
- Effective control procedures and systems are essential for managing major hazards.
Importance of Disaster Management
- Disaster management concepts emphasize emergency preparedness at the local level.
- Contingency plans and emergency planning based on international standards like ISO 14001, OHSAS 18001, and OSHA's Process Safety Management System are important.
