8 SEVESO II DIRECTIVE What Is Required
9 SEVESO II Issued on 9 December 1996 for all members of the EU Two purposes: Prevention of major accidents involving dangerous substances Limitation of the consequences of major accidents to people and the environment
10 SEVESO II Directive requires operators to demonstrate that Major accident hazards have been identified Necessary measures have been taken to prevent such accidents and limit their consequences
11 SEVESO II Seveso II requires companies to Prepare a Safety Report Safety Report must be updated at least every five (5) years
12 SEVESO II Safety Report must contain information on Company safety management system Site and process description Identification of potential accident scenarios and hazards An estimate of the severity and likelihood Measures used to protect the plant and limit consequences Safety and reliability of the equipment and process Emergency plans
13 REACH: Registration, Evaluation, and Authorization of CHemicals
14 WHY REACH? EU thinks that there are inconsistencies in evaluation and registration of chemicals An apparent need for more data on chemicals Public concern and public perception
15 SCOPE OF REACH Covers all substances whether manufactured, imported, used as intermediates or placed on the market, either on their own, in preparations or in articles, unless they are radioactive, subject to customs supervision, or are non-isolated intermediates
16 REGISTRATION UNDER REACH Estimate of 30,000 substances Registration of chemicals required if manufactured or imported over 1 tonne per year Exemptions for food, polymers, and other materials Monomers in polymers may have to be registered
17 REGISTRATION UNDER REACH Registration to be done over 11 years, starting June 2008 By importer or manufacturer Highest import/manufacture quantities first Registration of the 3,000 very high risk chemicals start June 2007 Industry will need environmental and health data Companies can share data for registration
18 EVALUATION UNDER REACH Evaluation of the registered information for all substances exceeding a production volume of 100 tonnes (around 5,000 substances corresponding to 15 percent) or, in cases of concern, also for substances at lower tonnage Evaluation carried out by authorities and include the development of substance-tailored testing program focusing on the effects of long-term exposure
19 AUTHORIZATION UNDER REACH Authorization of substances which are carcinogenic, mutagenic or toxic to reproduction and persistent organic pollutants
20 REACH: DOWNSTREAM USERS Must consider safety and risk of materials they use To obtain information from their suppliers Users can tell suppliers what they do so the supplier can do the safety assessment For confidentiality, user may perform his own safety assessment
21 REACH: THE MOST DANGEROUS SUBSTANCES The Most Dangerous Substances Are chemicals that cause cancer, accumulate in the body and in the environment and affect the ability to reproduce
22 REACH: THE MOST DANGEROUS SUBSTANCES Producers of the most dangerous substances have an obligation to Develop a substitution plan to use safer alternatives Develop a research and development plan to find a safer alternative if no safer alternative exists
23 COSTS OF REACH Costs estimated at 3 to 5 billion euros over 11 years
24 PROCESS SAFETY MANAGEMENT
25 PROCESS SAFETY MANAGEMENT The necessary activity to manage and control the risks of your business SEVESO The United States Process Safety Management Regulation
26 PROCESS SAFETY MANAGEMENT The United States Process Safety Management Regulation Fourteen elements plus the determination of what is to be included Most important elements are Process Hazard Analysis, Management of Change, and Mechanical Integrity
27 ELEMENTS OF PROCESS SAFETY MANAGEMENT a) Application b) Definitions c) Employee Participation Process Safety Information d) Process Hazard Analysis e) Operating Procedures f) Training g) Contractors i) Hot Work Permit j) Pre-startup Safety Review k) Mechanical Integrity l) Management of Change m) Incident Investigation n) Emergency Planning and Response o) Compliance Audits p) Trade Secrets
28 RISK AND RISK ASSESSMENT
29 RISK Risk is the chance that something adverse will happen Generally expressed as a function of severity (also called the consequence) and the likelihood it occurs
30 RISK ASSESSMENT Identifying hazards Understanding the nature of the hazards Assessing the consequences Immediate and knock-on Assessing the likelihood of the occurrence
31 HAZARD IDENTIFICATION Chemicals in the process Processes in the plant used to manufacture, store, transfer products Understanding potential for process issues, such as exothermic reactions, runaway reactions, high and low pressure, high and low level in vessels
32 RISK REDUCTION Review existing control measures Identify additional preventive control measures Cost-benefit analysis Review for acceptability ALARP (As Low As Reasonably Practicable)
33 PROCESS HAZARD ANALYSIS
34 PROCESS HAZARD ANALYSIS A Process Hazard Analysis is the comprehensive study that identifies and analyzes the hazards in a process The most common technique is the HAZOP study
35 HAZOP HAZOP is a HAZard and OPerability study Hazards or operability problems can occur When the process deviates from the design or operating intent The HAZOP Process Analyzes the process for hazards or operability problems Identifies safeguards which prevent the problem, protect the system, or mitigate the consequences Analyzes the risks in the process
36 EXAMPLE SAFETY REPORT Reports are very detailed and comprehensive As an example of a chemical plant study About 400 static and rotating equipment items 432 page study There are an additional 121 pages for the text of the report
37 MANAGEMENT OF CHANGE
38 MANAGEMENT OF CHANGE The formal and systematic process of identifying when a change takes place and that it is reviewed and approved to ensure: That the planned change provides the intended benefit without compromising safety, reliability, profitability, or the environment That the change does not degrade the initial safety that was designed into the process
39 MANAGEMENT OF CHANGE The literature suggests that over 80% of all large scale accidents trace their origins back to some sort of change
40 CHANGES Ross Pillari, former President of BP North America, said: The highest risks to the plant occur during a shutdown or a startup. In March 2005 the Isomerization Unit at the BP Texas City Texas Refinery was being restarted after a maintenance turnaround. It had a fire and explosion that killed 15 people.
41 WHAT IS A CHANGE? Change is an alteration or adjustment to any component, variable or property within an existing system
42 WHERE DO CHANGES OCCUR? Chemical inventory Equipment unavailability New equipment Operating conditions outside established operating limits Pressure Temperature Flow rate
43 WHERE DO CHANGES OCCUR? Materials of construction Equipment specifications Piping changes Computer program revisions Alarms and interlocks
44 WHERE DO CHANGES OCCUR? Temporary changes Emergency changes Variance for deviations from established procedures
45 SOME CLASSIC MANAGEMENT OF CHANGE FAILURES Chernobyl Temporary operating mode Disabled safeguards Flixborough Temporary pipeline installed Apollo 13 Spacecraft Electrical voltage specification changed
46 PROBLEMS IF CHANGES ARE NOT MANAGED Changes made that deviate from the Management of Change program have the potential for violation of regulations and fines
47 PROBLEMS IF CHANGES ARE NOT MANAGED Each change implemented without regard to the Management of Change protocol represents an uncontrolled risk An uncontrolled risk can never be properly managed
48 MECHANICAL INTEGRITY
49 MECHANICAL INTEGRITY Procedures and Training Establish and implement a written procedure to maintain process equipment integrity Train employees in how and why inspections, testing, and maintenance of equipment are important
50 MECHANICAL INTEGRITY Inspections and tests for each piece of process equipment Must follow recognized and generally accepted good engineering practices
51 MECHANICAL INTEGRITY Quality Assurance Only qualified personnel may perform work on the equipment Develop practices for ensuring all maintenance materials, spare parts, and system components are suitable for the application Document all maintenance and repairs
