It begins with the identification of probable potential hazardous events at an industry and categorization as per the predetermined criteria. The consequences of major credible events are calculated for different combinations of weather conditions to simulate worst possible scenario. These consequence predictions are combined to provide numerical measures of the risk for the entire facility. MCA stands for maximum credible accident or in other words, an accident with maximum damage distance, which is believed to be probable. MCA analysis does not include quantification of the probability of occurrence of an accident. In practice the selection of accident scenarios for MCA analysis is carried out on the basis of engineering judgement and expertise in the field of risk analysis especially in accident analysis. Detailed study helps in plotting the damage contours on the detailed plot plan in order to assess the magnitude of a particular event. A disastrous situation is the outcome of fire, explosion or toxic hazards in addition to other natural causes that eventually lead to loss of life, property and ecological imbalances. 7.1.1.1 Methodology of MCA Analysis The MCA analysis involves ordering and ranking of various sections in terms of potential vulnerability. The data requirements for MCA analysis are: Operating manual Flow diagram and P& I diagrams Detailed design parameters Physical and chemical properties of all the chemicals Detailed plant layout Detailed area layout Following steps are involved in the MCA analysis: Identification of potential hazardous sections and representative failure cases Visualization of release scenarios considering type and the quantity of the hazardous material Damage distance computations for the released cases at different wind velocities and atmospheric stability classes for heat radiations and pressure waves. Drawing of damage contours on plot plan to show the effect due to the accidental release of chemicals 7.1.2 Identification of Hazards Identification of hazards is an important step in risk assessment as it leads to the generation of accidental scenarios. The merits of including the hazard for further investigation are subsequently determined by its significance, normally using a cut-off or threshold quantity. Once a hazard has been identified, it is necessary to evaluate it in terms of the risk it presents to the employees and the neighbouring community. In principle, both probability and consequences should be considered, but there are occasions where it either the probability or the consequence can shown to be sufficiently low or sufficiently high, decisions can be made on just one factor. Chapter 7- Additional Studies 7-1 Expansion & Modernization of Existing Project For Manufacturing of Explosives & Defence Products During the hazard identification component, the following considerations are taken into account. Chemical identities Location of process unit facilities for hazardous materials. The types and design of process units The quantity of material that could be involved in an airborne release and The nature of the hazard (e.g. airborne toxic vapours or mists, fire, explosion, large quantities stored or processed handling conditions) most likely to accompany hazardous materials spills or releases The type and location of likely hazards are summarized below: A.

Acetic Acid, Acetic Anhydride & Gama Butyro Lactone in PP-6 7.1.2.1 Hazard Survey This is a formal systematized approach using a rotary form the final rating number provides a relative ranking of the hazard. Inventory analysis and Fire and Explosive Toxicity Index (FEI) are the two techniques employed for hazards identification process. Chapter 7- Additional Studies 7-2 Expansion & Modernization of Existing Project For Manufacturing of Explosives & Defence Products i. Inventory Analysis Inventory analysis requires the holdup quantities in process vessels associated, intermediate and main storages. All process materials which are capable of producing major accident hazards owing to their physical and chemical properties are identified. Hold up of materials are calculated on the basis of material balance. Quantities in pipelines are also taken into account. Large or substantial inventories in storage or process streams are indicative of the potential hazards to the plant and its surrounding. Flammability and toxicity factors of these inventories can lead to unpredictable incident. The list of all the holdups is tabulated and the major inventory of chemicals is marked on the plot plan to show the relative significance and interactive effect. Each inventory is evaluated based on its hazards nature, temperature and pressure in relation to the flash point, auto ignition characteristics, MAC value, LD 50 value and its location in the complex. In case of pipeline, the flow rates and the total material handled are also considered since these dynamic inventories may or may not be isolated effectively during accident. The hold up in the system (including pipeline) is quite small as compare to inventories in storage and as such the process holdups are not being considered for hazard analysis. ii. Material Inventory and Storage M/s SIIL maintains adequate inventory of raw material and others utility items (fuels, chemical, solvent etc.) to ensure uninterrupted production of explosives. iii. Inventory and Mode of Storage of Raw Materials The raw material and packaging material details with capacity are given in Table 7.1 and Storage tank details are presented in Table 7.3.
