Abstract

Background: New technologies using hazardous materials usually have certain risks. It is more serious when the technology is supposed to be applied in a large scale and be-come widely used by many people. The objective of this paper was to evaluate the risk of vapor cloud EXPLOSION in a HYDROGEN production process.Methods: Potential hazards were identified using the conventional hazard identification method (HAZID). The frequency of the proposed scenarios was estimated from statisti-cal data and existing records. The PHAST professional software was applied for conse-quence MODELING. Both individual and societal risks were evaluated. This cross-sectional study was conducted from June 2010 to December 2011 in a HYDROGEN Production Plant in Tehran.Results: The full bore rupture in heat exchanger had the highest harm effect distance. The full bore rupture in desulphurization reactor had the highest (57% of total) individual risk. Full bore rupture in heat exchanger was the highest contributor to social risk. It car-ried 64% & 66.7% of total risk in day and night respectively.Conclusions: For the sake of safety, mitigation measures should be implemented on heat exchanger, reformer and HYDROGEN purification absorbers. The main proposed risk reductive measures included; the increasing of installed equipment elevation, the appli-cation of smaller vessels and pipes.
