PROCESS SAFETY EXPERIENCE

This list summarizes just a few Process Safety and RAGAGEP projects that we have executed.

• Developed RAGAGEP Programs for several projects in chemical manufacturing facilities where the project was to use one or more listed chemicals.  Project documentation met the requirements of OSHA 29 CFR 1910.119 (D) (3) (ii)
  
  

• Conducted Process Safety Reviews for an existing BP/DPO (Dowtherm) liquid/vapor thermal fluid system that encompassed 10 primary fluid heaters, 14 primary circulation pumps, and approximately 350 individual vapor and liquid users.  The review also included such equipment as fluid pre-heaters, fluid storage and handling and spent fluid recovery and disposal.  The recommendations from those reviews resulted in seven capital safety improvement projects totaling $2MM total installed Cost.  Chemicals reviewed included:
         Dowtherm A, consisting of bi-phenyl and di-phenyl oxide
   
  
  

• Participated as Technical Specialist in Process Safety Review for installation of three (3) new 40 MM BTUH Thermal Fluid Heaters and their associated pumps and other ancillary equipment. Chemicals reviewed included:
         Dowtherm A, consisting of bi-phenyl and di-phenyl oxide
   
  
  

• Developed as-built P&ID's and conducted Process Safety Review for listed chemicals at small, privately owned specialty chemical company. Assembled materials and completed documentation for Process Safety management for that plant. Chemicals reviewed included:
         Formaldehyde
         Di-methyl sulfide
  
  

• Checked as-built P&ID's and conducted Process Safety Review for listed chemical at small, privately owned specialty chemical company.  Chemicals reviewed included:
          Propylene Oxide
  
  

•  Conducted Process Safety Review for new equipment installed for a process expansion at an existing acrylic polymer plant.  Chemicals reviewed included:
         Acrylic Acid
         Toluene di-isocynate
         Methyl di-isocynate
         Butyl Acetate
         Toluene
         Heptane
  
  

•  Designed, specified equipment, and managed field installation of safety upgrades to meet upgraded insurance requirements at a foam board manufacturing facility.  The equipment allows remote isolation of heat transfer media supply to laminator rolls in the event of a rotary joint or pump seal failure.  The upgrades were installed with minimal upset and down time at the facility.
