1 Process Safety Training (Shanghai) PREVENTING INDUSTRIAL DISASTERS THROUGH LEADERSHIP, PROCESS SAFETY EDUCATION

2 PREVENTING INDUSTRIAL DISASTERS THROUGH LEADERSHIP, PROCESS SAFETY EDUCATION, AND EMPOWERMENTOF EMPLOYEES One of the most important objectives of process-safety training is to educate employees to confidently recognize workplace hazards, including situations that could lead to explosion, fire, or toxic releases. The next step requires management s leadership to empower employees to take action to control these hazards, or to stop the process or activity creating the hazardous situation. A major purpose of these process-safety courses is to provide senior management with the understanding necessary to structure a system for training all employees on preventing disasters. We will also discuss management s responsibilities for attaining and maintaining a process-safety culture that control risks to people, property, the environment and corporate image. 2 PROCESS SAFETY TRAINING 2014 CHILWORTH

4 SAFE HANDLING & PROCESSING OF COMBUSTIBLE DUSTS Duration: 1 day - Price: CNY - Session code: DUSTW1 Course Design and Objectives This course builds on the dust hazard recognition and management course but includes specific effective management techniques for common powder processing unit operations including: Raw material handling, Powder Charging to Vessels, Blending, Milling, Size Classification, Packaging and Dust Collection. Many industrial processes use powdered raw materials and/or create powdered chemical intermediates that possess combustible dust hazards. The safe handling of these materials must consider the hazards associated with dust and powder combustion properties. Recent OSHA activities have brought these hazards to the forefront. This course will address the specific dust hazards associated with the most common unit operations used to receive, transfer and process combustible powders and solids and effective dust hazard control methods. It employs a systematic approach to dust explosion hazard assessment directed towards obtaining a Basis of Safety for a process. Who should attend 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, petrochemicals,oil and gas, food, plastic & rubber, metals, textiles, wood & paper and agrochemicals who desire a more in depth understanding of dust explosion hazards. Date & Location November 17 th Shanghai You Will Learn How to incorporate combustible dust hazard management into routine powder processing How to analyze various conditions under which dust explosions can occur How to apply suitable measures for protection nof people and facilities from dust explosion hazards Best dust explosion management practices for managing powder unit operations What properties of a powder create explosible dust hazards UNDERSTANDING & CONTROLLING ELECTROSTATIC HAZARDS Duration: 1 day - Price: CNY - Session code: STAT1 Course Design and Objectives This course will discuss and demonstrate how and where electrostatic charge is generated, how to analyze static problems, and how to apply effective solutions. Practical static control techniques will be illustrated by examining case histories of explosion incidents investigated by Chilworth Technology consultants. You Will Learn How electrostatic charge is generated in industrial environments How to recognize those electrostatic hazards that can trigger industrial fires and explosions How to choose methods to evaluate and control electrostatic charge in order to reduce or eliminate such risks Who should attend This course is directed primarily at engineers who are involved in process-safety activities, in process operations, research and development, and safety-department oversight and auditing of the process-safety effort. Attendance at this course also would be helpful to supervisors and managers who are responsible for ensuring appropriate protection against dust-ignition incidents that could affect employees and property. Date & Location November 18 th Shanghai 4 PROCESS SAFETY TRAINING 2014 CHILWORTH

5 EVALUATION & SELECTION OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT FOR USE IN HAZARDOUS AREAS Duration: 1 day - Price: CNY - Session code: EQUIP1 Course Design and Objectives Incorrectly specified electrical and mechanical equipment can provide a significant source of ignition for flammable atmospheres. The hazardous area classification process is designed to identify locations within a process plant where ignitable atmospheres exist, and to determine their likely extent. Using this information, the risk of ignition from equipment and devices in these areas can be minimized by either the specification of suitable equipment/devices, or relocating them to a safe, nonhazardous area. You Will Learn Ignition hazards that can be created by electrical and non-electrical equipment and devices The regulatory requirements of codes and standards for the classification of hazardous areas How to perform a hazardous area classification study The classification of areas where flammable atmospheres can arise from the presence of combustible dusts, flammable gases or vapors Who should attend 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, petrochemicals, oil and gas, food, plastic & rubber, metals, textiles, wood & paper and agrochemicals who desire a more in depth understanding of how to evaluate and select electrical and nonelectrical equipment for use in hazardous areas. Date & Location November 19 th Shanghai PRACTICAL HAZOP / PHA TEAM LEADERSHIP IN ACTION Duration: 2 day - Price: CNY - Session code: HZP3 Course Design and Objectives This course provides the concepts of PHA team leadership, including how to conduct an effective PHA, role of a PHA leader, techniques for efficient and effective facilitation, creating nodes, PHA methodologies (e.g., HAZOP), optimization of PHA team performance, revalidation of PHAs and an overview of PHA software. The course is illustrated with real industrial examples (both batch and continuous processes). Course participants will work case studies and participate in HAZOP team leader role playing exercises in the real situation of leading a HAZOP team. The training course is delivered by one of Chilworth Technology s highly experienced PHA practitioners. Who should attend Anyone responsible for PSM program compliance and effective PSM implementation (e.g., Process Safety Managers, Engineers, EH&S Managers, Operations and Maintenance Personnel and/or other designated PSM representatives). Date & Location November 20 th & 21 st Shanghai You Will Learn How to effectively prepare, lead and document PHAs and risk-rank hazard scenarios using a simplified LOPA technique How to maximize the identification of Hazard Scenarios, including ones with low likelihoods PROCESS SAFETY TRAINING 2014 CHILWORTH 5
