This is a four day course, covering Hazardous Area Classification (HAC),
Dust, Gas and Vapour Explosion Hazards, Industrial Electrostatic
Hazards and Non-Electrical (Mechanical) Ignition Risk Assessment.
This course presents current best practice and procedures for carrying out a
HAC for flammable gases / vapours and dusts with an understanding of how
HAC fits into compliance for DSEAR. It provides guidance on the selection of
an appropriate basis of safety and considers how flammable atmospheres arise,
how to identify potential ignition sources and the test data needed to
undertake a risk assessment. Explosion protection measures for cases where
flammable atmospheres and ignition sources are unavoidable will also be
addressed. Electrostatic charges can occur regularly as charge builds-up on
people, liquids, powders, plastics and plant. Understanding electrostatic
properties is essential in avoiding electrostatic discharges which can trigger fires
and explosions. The course provides practical techniques and relevant case

Developing safe processes is of paramount importance to any chemical
company. Exothermic chemical reactions in batch and semi-batch
processes can result in serious injury to people and plant if they get
out of control. Results of thermal runaways include violent loss of
containment, possibly explosion and the release of flammable or toxic
materials to the environment.
This seminar is designed to enhance the awareness of chemists and engineers
regarding hazard issues. Utilising the expertise of the chemists and chemical
engineers at Chilworth Technology and Scientific Update, it will consider hazard
control of new chemical processes throughout their development cycle: from early
development through to full-scale production. Hazards can often be eliminated by
appropriate choice of reagent or synthetic route at the R&D stage. Where this is not
possible, techniques exist to quantify the hazards so that robust engineering solutions
can he applied in production.

This course is designed to equip staff with the necessary tools to be
able to identify chemical reaction hazards, interpret test data correctly
and develop a robust basis of safety.
Exothermic chemical reactions in batch and semi-batch processes can result
in serious injury, cause major production problems and business loss. Chemical
reaction hazards are caused by factors readily identified and assessed,
but to carry out assessments properly requires chemists, engineers and
production staff to be suitably trained. It is particularly important for development
chemists to be aware of potential hazards to maximise inherent safety during
route selection.

DAY 2: The provision of emergency relief
systems for runaway chemical reactions
and decompositions requires a detailed
design approach that takes into account
the dynamics of the uncontrolled reaction
and the potential for multi-phase flow in
the vent system. The DIERS (Design
Institute for Emergency Relief Systems)
methodology provides a practical framework
for such studies, which is different to vent
sizing for purely physical contingencies.
This short course will examine the
characterisation of runaway behaviour
and the vent design approach.
Data requirements, sizing equations
and practical aspects will be discussed.
Case studies and workshops are
included.

Webinar, UK Time: 8th April - 3pm

Based on learning from extensive site audits,
this training course is designed specially to
provide guidance, particularly on DSEAR
compliance, for the operations used for
manufacture of alcoholic beverages.

Some spirit distillation processes still use
open fires for fuelling the stills and many
manufacturing sites, particularly distilleries,
are in old buildings where retrofitting of
explosion protection systems can be difficult
and costly.
This presents unique challenges in complying
with DSEAR regulations.

Explosion prevention and protection systems
are commonly used across most industry
sectors to protect vessels handling flammable
dusts, gases and vapours, usually when other
controls to avoid ignition are deemed insufficient.
Examples include inerting, explosion venting,
containment and suppression sometimes
combined with explosion isolation.
operating companies often place a high
level of confidence in these systems working
when required often at the expense of other
measures such as avoiding ignition sources.
But more often than not, we find these
systems to be incorrectly designed, operated,
maintained, located or simply lacking a
suitably documented design basis.

Electrostatic discharges have been responsible
for a number of fires and explosions in the
chemical and process industries. Years of
research on this topic in addition to lessons
from incidents has led to a better understanding
of the phenomenon, how it occurs and how to
prevent it happening.  
As specialists in this field, Chilworth Technology
have undertaken numerous electrostatic hazard
assessments and delivered training courses
across a broad range of industrial sectors.
one theme which has materialised from this
experience is that there are many common
misconceptions about electrostatic hazards.
This webinar aims to dispel common myths
about electrostatic hazards and how they need
to be controlled.

Using a number of electrostatic ‘myths’ as
examples, you will learn: 
• Why earthing and bonding is not enough
to control static in many situations • About
earthing of people – common mistakes
• Some common misconceptions about the
hazards of insulating plastics • Some common
misconceptions about the electrostatic hazards
when handling combustible powders • About
how much energy is needed? You will learn
about the ignition sensitivity of flammable
atmospheres vs. the perception of electrostatic
discharges • About isolated conductors you
probably never knew you had • Myths about
static dissipative materials including clothing,
plastic bags and filter bags • About common
mistakes when purchasing and using static
dissipative bags and liners • Why it is important
to inspect and maintain electrostatic ignition
prevention systems.

Duration : 1 hour

audience:

Process Hazard Analysis (PHA) is used by industry to identify and
assess process hazards in a systematic manner.
Common hazard identification techniques include Hazard Indices, HAzID or
preliminary Hazard Analysis, What-If, Checklist, FMEA, HAzop and process
Hazard Review; while common assessment techniques include Fault Tree,
LopA, Event Tree, Bow-Tie and Human Reliability Analysis. pHA's are often an
integral part of any main capital project, with different techniques being used at
each stage, although they can be employed when making process changes

An introduction to IEC 61508/11 Safety Integrity Level (SIL) principles
for establishing the performance, specification and reliability of Safety
Instrumented Systems.
This course is suitable for anyone who would benefit from a broad understanding
of this important safety related area and will cover the background
of IEC61508/11 SIL development and its management requirements.
The presentation will go on to explain SIL determination techniques such as
Risk Graph & Layers of protection Analysis (LopA), which are common methods
within the process industries. Workshops will reinforce the learning of these
techniques.

Content
DAY 1: The introduction will cover
the background of IEC61508/11 SIL
development and its management
requirements and will go on to explain SIL
determination techniques such as Risk
Graph & Layers of protection Analysis
(LopA), which are common methods
within the process industries.
Workshops will reinforce the learning
of these techniques.
DAY 2: The course moves onto the initial
implementation phase of Safety Instrumented
System (SIS) design, including system
architecture, failure modes, fault tolerance,
human reliability, etc., in order to achieve
both performance and integrity.
Familiarisation with the requirements of
operational proof testing and maintenance
of SIS and their impact to overall functional
safety will also be addressed.
The importance of management,
competency, planning and conformity
assessment will be highlighted.

DAY 3: Based on the information
presented and following completion of
the course, delegates should be able
to participate in, and contribute towards,
future SIL assessments within their own
workplace, appreciate the elements of
safety system design and the importance
of operations and maintenance
management to overall safety.
Extensive opportunities to discuss the
various issues raised with the lecturers
will be provided.

- A Practical Guide to Quantified Risk Assessment (QRA) for Industry
Session code
QRA1

Session code
HZP1-2

Complex processing with inherent hazards requires systematic
methods for hazard identification and assessment. Hazard and
Operability Study (HAZOP) is a recognised industry-wide method
for achieving this
HAzop is a rigorous, structured approach to identifying operational problems
and hazards which can be adapted to a variety of processes and technologies,
however the effectiveness and efficiency of a HAzop depends on the
competence of the leader. This course will help leaders develop the skills
necessary to make HAzop a cost-effective aspect of their process development,
design and management in their organisation.

Content
DAY 1: Delegates will learn when and how
HAzop should be employed in a process
lifecycle and how HAzop compares to
other hazard identification and assessment
techniques. Tuition on how to conduct a
HAzop on continuous and batch process
plants will be given.

DAY 3: Examples, case studies and
practical examples of HAzops in industry.

DAY 2: Building on the main themes
mentioned above, delegates will learn
how to prepare and develop effective
leadership techniques for HAzop studies
while developing and auditing HAzop
procedures.

Duration: 2 Days Price: £775 / €970

The aim of the course is to give people carrying out QRAs a practical
understanding of techniques that can be used.
To successfully manage major process hazards, assessment of the risks arising from
the hazards is required. In some cases it is sufficient to carry out qualitative risk
assessments using simple techniques such as risk matrices. However, when the risk
is judged to be high, the consequences are severe, the system is complex or there
is a regulatory requirement, it may be necessary to evaluate the risk numerically using
Quantified Risk Assessment.

Content
DAY 1: Attendees will learn how to
evaluate whether a risk is acceptable and
identify measures for cost-effective risk
reduction by comparing the relative risks
of different options e.g transport of
materials by pipeline versus road transport.
This course will help staff and companies
meet their regulatory obligations for
risk assessment, such as the Seveso
Directives (CoMAH Regulations in
the UK).

DAY 2: Continues with methods to
estimate the effects on people and the
environment from major hazard events
by using techniques for judging risk
acceptability, risk reduction and costbenefit analysis and for identifying and
modelling of major process hazards
and likelihood of accidents.
