The Risk Assessment is prepared on the basis of information and details provided

by M/s. Dorf Ketal Speciality Catalysis (P) Ltd, Plot No. Z/108, Dahej, Dist. Bharuch

to HELPS during their course of the study. The assessment has been formulated by

team of qualified, experienced and competent persons.

The industrial emergency / disaster resulting from the accidental release of huge

quantity of volatile substances having toxic, flammable or explosive chemical

properties are not new to the chemical units. Therefore, the process of the chemical

industries have been continuously updating and developing its design and operating

techniques to overcome such problems. Further, a technique known as “Risk

Assessment” has been developed to assess the risk associated in the handling the

plants, storage areas and its consequences on human environment etc, if involves

either due to fire, explosion or toxic gas release.

3.13.13.13.1 INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION

A hazard is an inherent physical or chemical character ist ic that has the

potent ia l for causing harm. A hazard Ident i f icat ion study is an

organized effort to ident ify and analyze the signif icance of hazardous

si tuat ions associated with a process or act iv i ty. Specif ical ly , Hazard

Ident if icat ion studies are used to pinpoint weaknesses in the design

and operat ion of faci l i t ies that could lead to accidental chemical

releases, f i res, or explosions. These studies provide organizat ions with

informat ion to help them to improve the safety and manage the r isk of

their operat ions.

Hazard Identi f icat ion studies usual ly focus on storages, process safety

issues, l ike the acute effects of unplanned chemical re leases on plant

personnel or the publ ic. These studies complement more tradit ional

industr ial health and safety act iv it ies, such as protect ion against s l ips

or fa l ls, use of personal protect ive equipment, monitor ing for

employee exposure to industr ia l chemicals, etc. Although Hazard

Ident if icat ion studies typical ly use qual itat ive methods to analyze

potent ia l equipment fa i lures and human errors that can lead to

accidents, the studies can also highl ight gaps in the management

systems of an organizat ion's process safety program.

3.5.1 Pool Evaporation

The released f lammable materia l which is a l iquid stored below

its normal boi l ing point, wil l col lect in a pool. The geometry

of the pool wi l l be dictated by the surroundings. I f the

l iquid is stored under pressure above i ts normal boi l ing

point, then a f ract ion of the l iquid wi l l f lash into vapor

and the remaining port ion wi l l form a pool in the vicin i ty of

the release point. Once susta ined combustion is achieved,

l iquid f ires quick ly reach steady state burning. The heat

release rate is a function of the l iquid surface area exposed to

air. An unconf ined spi l l wi l l tend to have thin fuel depth

(typical ly less than 5 mm) which wi l l result in slower

burning rates. A conf ined spil l is l imited by the boundaries

(e.g. a dyked area) and the depth of the result ing pool is

greater than that for an unconf ined spi l l .

Vaporization scenarios

Vaporizat ion can occur when there is a leak in any of

the fol lowing S ituat ions:

• A l iquid at atmospheric temperature and pressure.

• A l iquid under pressure and above normal boi l ing point.

• The rates of vapourisat ion of the l iquid are different for

each of the two cases. In the case

• The l iquid after spi l lage is approximately at equi l ibr ium

and evaporates relat iv ity s lowly.

• In the case, the l iquid f lashes off when released, and the

l iquid remaining then undergoes s low evaporat ion.

Evaporat ion of a l iquid at atmospheric

temperature and pressure.

Evaporat ion f rom a pool of l iquid is essentia l ly a mass transfer

process that depends on the vapour pressure of the l iquid,

DORF-RA-2016 HELPS

18

wind velocity across the surface of the pool and ambient

weather condit ion.

A spi l lage of this k ind const i tutes a steady cont inuous

source of vapour. Unless the rate of evaporat ion due to

the combinat ion of vapour pressure and wind velocity is

high enough, i t is usual ly assumed that the heat t ransfer

from the a ir and the ground is suf f ic ient to provide the

latent heat of vapourisat ion.

Evaporat ion of a l iquid under pressure and above normal

boi l ing point When a pressur ized l iquid is re leased f rom

containment, a port ion f lashes off. This heat is obtained by

cooling the remain ing l iquid to i ts boi l ing point thus reaching

a state of equi l ibr ium f rom the high in equi l ibr ium

prevalent immediately on loss of containment. In practice, it

frequently happens that there is a s ignif icant amount of

spray format ion caused by the sudden release of

pressure and the v iolent boi l ing of l iquid. This spray

vaporizes rapidly by taking heat for vaporizat ion f rom air.

This spray l iquid format ion is assumed to equal to the gas

fract ion generated by f lash. The proport ion of l iquid ai rborne

is thus considerably high. Fol lowing f lashing, the res idual l iquid

is at i ts boil ing point. Vaporizat ion then cont inuous by

gain ing heat f rom surrounding as an essent ia l ly heat or

mass transfer l imited process.

This secondary stage of rate l imited vaporizat ion is usual ly

relat ively less important compared with the f lash off,

part icular ly with respect to format ion of f lammable gas clouds.

DORF-RA-2016 HELPS

3.5.2 Vapour Cloud dispersion

Following a cont inuous leak and formation of gas cloud, if

c loud does not ignite i t undergoes atmospheric dispersion in

accordance with the prevalent wind direction, speed, and

stabil i ty category. The object ive of carry ing out analys is of

cloud dispers ion is two fold. F i rst , i t provides the distance

(f rom the leak) at which the concentrat ion of f lammable

mater ia l fa l ls below the lower f lammabi l i ty l imit (LEL). Second

it provides the concentrat ion of the toxic substance to which

people may be exposed for short t ime, at vary ing distance

(f rom the leak).

3.5.3 JET FIRE

A Jet F ire, a lso referred to as a f lame jet, occurs when a

f lammable chemical is rapidly released from an opening in a

container and immediately catches on f i re—much l ike the f lame

from a blowtorch. A two-phase Jet F ire occurs when a gas that

has been l iquef ied under pressure is released. Because the

l iquid evaporates as it escapes, the chemical is released as an

aerosol spray—that is, a mixture of gas and t iny l iquid

droplets. Software assumes the Jet F ire release is or iented

vert ical ly , a lthough the wind can t i l t the f lames in the

downwind direct ion. Thermal radiat ion is the pr imary hazard

associated with a Jet F i re. Other potent ia l Jet F i re hazards

include smoke, tox ic by products f rom the f i re, and secondary

f i res and explosions in the surrounding area.

3.5.4 Pool fire

A pool f i re occurs when a f lammable l iquid forms a puddle on

the ground and catches on f ire. Thermal radiat ion is the

pr imary hazard associated with a pool f i re. Other potent ia l

pool f ire hazards include smoke, toxic by products f rom the

f i re, and secondary f i res and explosions in the surrounding

area. In some cases, heat f rom the pool f i re may weaken a

DORF-RA-2016 HELPS

20

leaking tank and cause i t to fa i l completely—in which case, a

BLEVE may occur. Typical ly , a BLEVE poses a greater threat than

a pool f ire. I f the chemical ins ide the tank is l ikely to BLEVE (for

example, i f the tank contains a l iquef ied gas).

3.5.5 BLEVEs

BLEVE stands for Boi l ing L iquid Expanding Vapour Explosion.

BLEVEs typical ly occur in closed storage tanks that contain a

l iquef ied gas, usual ly a gas that has been l iquef ied under

pressure. A gas can be l iquef ied by either cool ing

(refr igerat ing) it to a temperature below its boi l ing point or by

stor ing it at a h igh pressure. Both f lammable and non f lammable

l iquef ied gases may be involved in a BLEVE. Propane is an

example of a chemical that has been involved in many BLEVE

accidents. Most propane tanks at service stat ions contain

l iquid propane. These tanks are neither insulated nor

refr igerated, so the tank contents are at ambient temperature.

Since the ambient temperature is a lmost a lways signif icant ly

above propane's boi l ing point of -43.7 ºF, the tanks are h ighly

pressurized.

A common BLEVE scenar io happens when a container of

l iquef ied gas is heated by f i re, increasing the pressure with in

the container unt i l the tank ruptures and fai ls. When the

container fa i ls, the chemical is re leased in an explosion. I f the

chemical is above i ts boil ing point when the container fai ls ,

some or a l l of the l iquid wil l f lash-boi l—that is, instantaneously

become a gas. I f the chemical is f lammable, a burning gas

cloud cal led a f i rebal l may occur i f a s ignif icant amount of the

chemical f lash-boi ls. Software assumes that any l iquid not

consumed in the f i rebal l wi l l form a pool f i re. Software

est imates the thermal radiat ion hazard f rom a f i rebal l and/or a

pool f ire. Other potentia l BLEVE hazards include overpressure,

hazardous f ragments, smoke, and tox ic by products f rom the

DORF-RA-2016 HELPS

21

f i re. Software focuses on the thermal radiat ion because in

most BLEVEs thermal radiat ion impacts a greater area than the

overpressure and is the more s igni f icant threat.

3.5.6 Fireball

When you model a BLEVE, software assumes that a f i rebal l wi l l

form. The f i rebal l is made up of both the chemical that f lash-

boi ls when the tank fa i ls and the chemical that sprays out as an

aerosol dur ing the explosion. Software est imates that the

amount of chemical in the f i rebal l is three t imes the amount of

chemical that f lash boi ls. Any l iquid that does not part ic ipate

in the f i rebal l wi l l form a pool f i re. When you choose to

model a BLEVE s ituat ion, the program est imates the thermal

radiat ion f rom both f i res; it is not necessary to run an

addit ional Pool F i re scenar io. The pr imary hazard associated

with a f i rebal l is thermal radiat ion. However, i f there are other

chemicals near the f i rebal l , i t can t r igger addit ional f i res and

explosions. Explosion and hazardous f ragments. In a BLEVE, a

high-pressure explosion typical ly causes the container to

fragment. As the container breaks apart, i t may st r ike objects in

the surrounding area and create addit ional debris. The

container fragments and other debris—hazardous f ragments—

are swept up in the explosion and rapidly propel led by the

explosion over a wide area.. I f a BLEVE is l ikely to occur, f i rst

responders must take the necessary precaut ions to protect

themselves and others f rom the overpressure and hazardous

fragments.

3.5.7 Flash fires (flammable area)

When a f lammable vapour cloud encounters an ignit ion source,

the cloud can catch f i re and burn rapidly in what is cal led a

f lash f ire. Potent ial hazards associated with a f lash f i re include

thermal radiat ion, smoke, and tox ic by products f rom the f ire.

The f lammable area of the vapour cloud—that is, the area

DORF-RA-2016 HELPS

22

where a f lash f ire could occur at some t ime after the release.

The f lammable area is bounded by the Lower Explosive L imit

(LEL) and the Upper Explosive L imit (UEL). These l imits are

percentages that represent the concentrat ion of the fuel—that

is, the chemical—vapour in the air. I f the chemical vapour

comes into contact with an ignit ion source, it wi l l burn only if

i ts fuel-a ir concentrat ion is between the LEL and the UEL,

because that port ion of the cloud is al ready pre-mixed to the

r ight mixture of fuel and air for burning to occur. I f the fuel-a i r

concentrat ion is below the LEL, there is not enough fuel in the

air to susta in a f i re or an explosion—it is too lean. I f the fuel-

a ir concentrat ion is above the UEL, there is not enough oxygen

to susta in a f i re or an explosion because there is too much

fuel—it is too rich. (This is s imi lar to an engine that cannot start

because i t has been f looded with gasol ine.) I f a f lash f i re

occurs, the part of the cloud where the fuel-a i r concentrat ion

is above the UEL may cont inue to slowly burn as ai r mixes with

the cloud. You might expect that the LEL could be used as the

LOC to determine the areas in which a f i re might occur.

However, the concentrat ion levels est imated are t ime-

averaged concentrat ions. In an actual vapour cloud, there wi l l

be areas where the concentrat ion is h igher than the average

and areas where the concentrat ion is lower than the average.

This is cal led concentrat ion patchiness. Because of

concentrat ion patchiness, there wi l l be areas, cal led pockets,

where the chemical is in the f lammable range even though the

average concentrat ion has fa l len below the LEL. Some

experiments have shown that f lame pockets can occur in

places where the average concentrat ion is above 60% of the

LEL.

DORF-RA-2016 HELPS

3.5.8 Vapour cloud explosions

When a f lammable chemical is re leased into the atmosphere, it

forms a vapour cloud that wi l l disperse as i t t ravels downwind.

I f the cloud encounters an ignit ion source, the parts of the

cloud where the concentrat ion is with in the f lammable range

(between the LEL and UEL) wi l l burn. The speed at which the

f lame front moves through the cloud determines whether i t is a

def lagrat ion or a detonat ion. In some s ituat ions, the cloud wi l l

burn so fast that it creates an explosive force (blast wave). The

sever ity of a vapour cloud explosion depends on the

chemical, the cloud size at the t ime of ignit ion, the type of

ignit ion, and the congest ion level ins ide the cloud. The pr imary

hazards are overpressure and hazardous f ragments. Some

people may prefer to use the terms Lower F lammable L imit

(LFL) and Upper F lammable L imit (UFL), part icular ly i f they are

only concerned with f i res.

3.5.9 Overpressure

A major hazard associated with any explosion is overpressure.

Overpressure, a lso cal led a blast wave, refers to the sudden

onset of a pressure wave after an explosion. This pressure

wave is caused by the energy released in the in i t ia l

explosion—the bigger the ini t ia l explosion, the more damaging

the pressure wave. Pressure waves are near ly instantaneous,

travel l ing at the speed of sound. Although a pressure wave

may sound less dangerous than a f ire or hazardous f ragments,

it can be just as damaging and just as deadly. The pressure

wave radiates outward l ike a g iant burst of a ir , crashing into

anything in its path (generat ing hazardous fragments). I f the

pressure wave has enough power behind it , i t can l i f t people

off the ground and throw them up against nearby bui ldings or

trees. Addit ional ly , blast waves can damage bui ldings or even

knock them f lat—often injuring or k i l l ing the people ins ide

them. The sudden change in pressure can also affect pressure-

sensit ive organs l ike the ears and lungs. The damaging effects

of the overpressure wi l l be greatest near the source of the

explosion and lessen as you move farther from the source.

3.63.63.63.6 Thermal Radiation Levels Thermal Radiation Levels Thermal Radiation Levels Thermal Radiation Levels

A Thermal Radiat ion Level is a threshold level of thermal radiat ion,

usual ly the level above which a hazard may ex ist.

The thermal radiat ion effects that people experience depend upon the

length of t ime they are exposed to a specif ic thermal radiat ion level.

Longer exposure durat ions, even at a lower thermal radiat ion level, can

produce serious physiological effects.

Thermal damage

The ef fect of thermal radiat ion on people is main ly a function

of intensity of radiat ion and exposure t ime. The ef fect is

expressed in terms of the probabi l i ty of death and different

degrees of burn. The fol lowing tables g ive the effect of var ious

levels of heat f lux.

3.73.73.73.7 OVERPRESSURE Levels OVERPRESSURE Levels OVERPRESSURE Levels OVERPRESSURE Levels

The most basic def ini t ion of an explosion is a sudden, intense release

of energy that often produces a loud noise, h igh temperatures, and

f ly ing debris, and generates a pressure wave. There are many types of

explosions and the causes and effects wi l l vary. Intent ional explosions

wi l l general ly—but not always—result in greater hazard damage.

Consider three pr imary hazards when deal ing with an explosion:

thermal radiat ion, overpressure, and hazardous f ragments (f ly ing

debris). Al l three of these hazards are not present in every explosion

and the sever ity of the hazard wi l l depend on the explosion. These

hazards typical ly last only for a br ief per iod direct ly fol lowing the

explosion. However, it is important to consider the potent ia l for

secondary explosions and f i res to occur before deciding that these

hazards no longer ex ist .

DORF-RA-2016 HELPS

26

Large objects ( l ike t rees and buildings) in the path of the pressure

wave can af fect its st rength and direct ion of travel. For example, i f

many bui ldings surround the explosion s ite, expect the actual

overpressure threat zone to be somewhat smal ler. But at the same

t ime, more hazardous f ragments could be generated as the blast

causes st ructural damage to those bui ldings. An Overpressure Level is

a threshold level of pressure f rom a blast wave, usual ly the pressure

above which a hazard may ex ist.

used when the l ikel ihood and consequence of incidents are

evaluated, they can be combined to produce a numerical recantat ion

of the r isk.

The level of r isk can be represented in a number of ways. Two of the

most useful ways in this context are indiv idual and societa l r isk .

5.1.1 Individual Risk :

Indiv idual r isk is the r isk of a nominated adverse effect, usual ly

fata l i ty, i f an indiv idual remained f ixed at a locat ion for a set

t ime, usual ly a year, adjacent to an industr ia l hazard. Indiv idual

r isk contours are der ived by calculat ing at a specif ic locat ion,

the impacts result ing from each fa i lure mode identi f icat ion and

summing the r isk value associated with each fa i lure mode.

Indiv idual r isk cr iteria can be presented as a diagram, known as

the “Dagger Diagram”, to faci l i tate understanding. F igure 1

given next page shows the individual r isks of fata l i ty, and some

r isks experienced in day to day l i fe.

5.1.2 Societal Risk :

Societa l r isk cr i ter ia specify levels of societal r isk that must not

be exceeded by a part icular act iv ity. These cr iter ia ensure that

a hazardous act iv ity / faci l i ty does not impose a r isk on society

that is disproport ionate to other major hazards hav ing regard

to the benef i t the act iv ity or faci l i ty br ings. In part icular,

societal r isk cr iter ia are used to regulate the r isks of an

accident involv ing many fata l i t ies, which indiv idual r isk cr i ter ia

do not address.

Societa l r isk cr iter ia are usual ly expressed in the form of a

chart, with N, the number of fata l i t ies across the bottom and

the frequency of N or more fata l i t ies on the vert ical scale. The

cri ter ia are areas, or zones on the chart, del ineated by

downward s loping l ines.

The method of measur ing the f requency of accidents caused by Off-

Site Events should be f it for purpose. In other words i t should be

proport ionate to the level of r isk. Thus, i f a s ite is located far away

from any ai rport or f l ight path (mil i tary or civ i l ), then i t is acceptable

for the safety report to refer to the background crash rate for the UK.

On the other hand, i f the s ite is located close to a busy a i rport then

a much more detai led assessment of ai rcraft impact should be

carr ied out.

Knowledge and Safety measures are tested when any incident /

compelled to acquire the knowledge of the causes of the accidents

and of preventat ive measures to prevent its reoccurrences.

Annexure-11.

5.65.65.65.6 LIMITATIONS & UNCERTAINTYLIMITATIONS & UNCERTAINTYLIMITATIONS & UNCERTAINTYLIMITATIONS & UNCERTAINTY

The hazard ident if icat ion procedures are coupled with good

engineer ing judgement, regulat ions, and guidel ines together

const itute a better st rategy to ensur ing safety. The accuracy and

usefulness of r isk assessment are cr it ical ly dependent on the qual ity

of the model assumptions and that of the relevant database. In case

of accident f requency assessment, the sources of errors are a lso

varied. In many instances only very general data are avai lable on

equipment fa i lure, for which stat ist ical accuracy is often poor. In

other cases, these may be very l i t t le data avai lable at a l l . In India, the

databases on equipment fai lure and human error are not readily

avai lable. There is indeed a st rong need to bui ld up a nat ional

rel iabi l i ty database through co-operat ive ef fects between industry

and instrument / equipment manufactures.
