Quantitative Risk Analyses In The Process Industries: Methodology, Case Studies, And Cost-Benefit Analysis
Abstract
This presentation demonstrates the quantitative risk analysis technique as applied to process industries, with references to several case studies. Demonstration of successful execution, how these studies assisted in reducing overall risk, and the cost-benefit aspect will be addressed. Types of hazardous consequences which can contribute to overall risk will be outlined as well, including fire, toxic and explosive effects. The effect of likelihood is addressed in terms of mechanical failure rates, meteorological data, population densities, and ignition probabilities. Quantitative risk analysis is a widely accepted technique within the chemical and process industries. It has been adopted to form legislative requirements in many countries within Europe and Asia. Quantitative risk analysis typically assesses the risk to society as a whole, or to individuals affected by process operations.

Quality And Performance Of Sliced Shook From Small Ponderosa Pine Logs
To determine whether sliced shook from small pine logs is suitable for the manufacture of fruit containers, a quantity of small ponderosa pine logs were heated in water and steam and sliced into side, bottom, and top slats for citrus fruit boxes. The shook was dried in a veneer drier and in a kiln, and the effect of the heating and drying methods on quality was determined.
The sliced shook was made up into citrus boxes that were compared in rough-handling tests with boxes made from sawn slats obtained from the same type of log.

Electrical Safty
Introduction
As a source of power, electricity is used in all aspects of life. In the home and at work, electricity provides the power for everything from domestic appliances to industrial machines, from office equipment to electric tools. When compared to the potential dangers of machinery and chemical substances, electrical hazards can be easily overlooked. Unfortunately, this neglect often causes serious accidents and loss of property. Many of these accidents can be prevented as they are mainly caused by electricity users who lack basic safety awareness.

Giving Safety Talks A Guide For The Construction Sector
Introduction and Importance
Biohazardous infectious material contains organisms that can cause diseases such as HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis B, and Salmonella in humans or animals. These materials are usually found in hospitals and laboratories. However, you could! nd them at work. Universal Precautions are guidelines to help protect you from exposure to infectious diseases spread by blood or body fluids.
Consequences
Biohazardous infectious materials can cause AIDS, hepatitis, or other diseases. 157 disabling injury claims took place in 2007 – primarily in the Health Care profession. Procedure/Practice
If your work requires you to handle biohazardous infectious materials, ask your supervisor for training so you understand the hazards, roles, responsibilities, and regulations you are to follow. Wear the proper PPE as every tissue or fluid is to be considered dangerous. Make sure you have a tetanus immunization every 10 years. Trash bins in the Health & Safety department may contain infectious materials. Be careful in this area.

Safety Guide For Work In Manholes
Introduction
Working near or in a manhole inherits potential dangers which may result in serious accidents. The common ones include falls/slips, fire or explosion, oxygen depletion, gas poisoning, heat stress, drowning, asphyxiation arising from gas, fume, vapor, and entrapment by free-flowing solid. Amongst these, dangers involving gases are easily overlooked or neglected, leading to serious casualties. This guide aims to remind persons entering or working in a manhole to take appropriate measures, including measures for the prevention of oxygen depletion and gas poisoning. ‘‘Certified workers’’ (Note 1) must be familiar with the ‘Code of Practice – Safety and Health at Work in Confined Spaces, and before entering a manhole, they must take all the necessary safety precautions to ensure safety at work
