HUM-MOLGEN events: Fire and Explosion Hazards: FREE WEBINAR

Who Should Attend?
This course will be especially beneficial to personnel (e.g., management, technical, operations and maintenance) involved with process safety, EH&S, process design, operations and maintenance from the chemical & processing industries, including bulk and finished pharmaceuticals, chemicals, cosmetics, petrochemicals, oil and gas, food, plastic & rubber, metals, textiles, wood & paper and agrochemicals who desire a more in depth and practical understanding of fire and explosion hazard assessment and control.

Many operations in the processing industry involve handling and processing of liquids and powders, most of which could under certain conditions be flammable. Flammable gas, vapor, and dust cloud atmospheres can be ignited if a sufficiently energetic ignition source is present. Ignition of a flammable atmosphere occurs if the ignition-source energy exceeds the minimum energy that is required to ignite the fuel/air mixture at the given process conditions. As one can therefore imagine, a flash-fire or explosion hazard can exist during the transfer, handling, processing, and packaging of many flammable liquids and powders. Flash fires and explosions can lead to catastrophic events involving fatalities, injuries, community impact, facility damage, and economic losses.

Therefore, safe manufacturing requires employers to take measures that avoid flash fires and explosions and also protect people and plant from their consequences. But how can you be sure you have identified all the hazards on your plant; and how can you be sure that the control measures you are taking are practical and effective? This Free informational webinar will address these concerns and offer solutions to these types of safety issues.
