Managing Process and Powder Handling Hazards Workshop
1 day workshop - Friday 26th April 2013, Vapi, India
The thermal hazards associated with the chemical process industry can be encountered either during synthesis reaction (i.e. chemical process) or during one of the unit operations like distillation, drying and milling (i.e. Physical process) with supposedly no chemical reaction intended. The equipment and methodologies required to successfully investigate chemical processes for such hazards have been available for many years. In spite of this, accidents and incidents continue to occur.
This workshop is aimed at technicians, chemists, chemical engineers, plant managers and safety specialists who wish to understand the various hazards posed by static electricity, dust explosions, runaway reactions and how to investigate processes and unit operations for thermal hazards. In order to do this successfully, it is necessary to fully understand the thermal data and the means by which it can be acquired. This seminar advocates a structured approach supported by theory and case studies focusing on the role that laboratory thermal data has in an overall risk minimization strategy.
Who should participate?
Development Chemists, Safety Specialists, EHS Specialists, Plant Managers, Safety Engineers, Chemical Engineers
Registration Delegate Fee (Inclusive of Service Tax): Rs7,500
Why participate?
This course will introduce you to the theory of static electricity and its hazards in day to day operations. It will then elaborate on how powders should be safely handled with specific emphasis on drying & milling operations. Next the course will focus on thermodynamics of a chemical reaction, identifying and preventing runaway situations and managing the risks involved therein. The medium of instruction will be through films, presentations, case studies and problem solving exercises.
Learn about the roles of:
- Calorimetry – RC1
- Screening Tools – DSC
- Runaway Conditions
- Reaction Kinetics
- Static Electricity
- Powder Safety Tests
- Milling & Drying Safety
- Powder Handling
