objectives Hazards Industrial Hazards Fire Accidents Mechanical Accidents Electrical Accidents Chemical and Pharmaceutical Accidents Risk Management
HAZARDS • Hazards is a situation that posses a level of threat to life, health, property or environment CLASSIFICATION o Chemical Hazards o Electrical Hazards o Mechanical Hazards o Fire Hazards
FIRE ACCIDENTS • Combustible material + O 2 • Exothermic reaction Ø Combustion Ø FIRE o Slow combustion eg: cotton waste burning o Rapid combustion eg: petroleum product o Spontaneous combustion eg paint, scrap Cause of fire Over heating of electrical app Hot surface temperature Spark from metal to metal contact Carelessness
TYPES OF FIRE
STEPS TO BE TAKEN – – – Don’t panic Raise the alarm Evacuate the premises Turn off the gas supply Attack the fire with extinguisher Or vacate the place • In case of fire safe methods to be followed o o o Stair cases only to be used for evacuation Exit doors should be closed after getting out Go down the stair case to the ground Walk do not run Encounter heavy smoke crawl on the floor, do not talk, cover the nose and mouth with a wet cloth
FIRE EXTINGUISHERS
CHEMICAL HAZARDS Toxic Corrosive Irritant Carcinogenic Mutagenic
Pictograms used in chemical hazards
Effects of chemicals on exposure Skin burn Ache Anthrax Ulcer in hand, nose etc Cancer Irritation on wind pipe
Safety design for Chemical Industry Personal protective cloth Leak proof connections Piping and storage tank should be colour code Flammable & explosive chemicals proper distance criteria should be followed Pressure regulators and relief valves All materials should be resistance to chemicals Warning and Symbols
Pharmaceutical Hazards from handling crude drugs and it’s extract a eg: Ipecacunha. Solvents eg: Benzene Alkaloids eg: scopolamine, emetine Toxic intermediate Final product eg: Local anaesthetic Miscellaneous Hazards Radiant energy Bacteria and viruses
Electrical Hazards How Shocks occur? Current Level (In milliamperes) o 1 m. A o 5 m. A o 6 -30 m. A o 50 -150 m. A o 1000 -4300 m. A o 10, 000 m. A Probable Effect on Human Body Slight tingling sensation. Slight shock felt; not painful but disturbing. Painful shock, muscular control is lost. Extreme pain, respiratory arrest, severe muscular contraction and death is possible Muscular contraction and nerve damage occur. Death is most likely. Cardiac arrest, severe burns and probable death
The most frequent causes of electrical injury/death are: 1. Contact with power lines 2. Path to ground missing or discontinuous 3. Equipment not used in manner prescribed 4. Improper use of extension and flexible cords
Safety Measures for electrical hazards ü Design a safer system ü Implement a safe electrical work program ü Observe work practice ü Use protective equipment ü Use warning labels ü Recheck the equipment everyday ü Heat producing electrical equipment ü Overhead electrical wire should have extra care ü Recheck the lines everyday ü Proper training to workers
Mechanical Hazards REASONS v Insecurely fixed machines v Worn and teared parts v Failure of SOP v Dangerous Parts v Negligence v Improper maintenance of equipment
Safety measures for Mechanical hazards ü All machinery must be fenced or mechanical interlocking or photocell. ü Machine should be fitted with emergency shut down system.
ü Turn key system for cleaning and for repairing. ü Control system override should be monitored. ü Operator must have a safe distance from the machine. ü Following strictly SOP. ü Stop and lock button for machines.
Hazards in LAB o FIRE o Safety measures o Locating fire extinguishers and other protective gears in o o o lab Emergency equipment in hand Safety officer Alarm Evacuation and smoke detection system Escape route
CHEMICAL HAZARDS o Use glass ware when necessary o Volatile solvent in fume cup board o Laminar air flow o Dust mask Eg: Carbon di sulphide in fuming cupboard Hydrogen sulphide : desensitizes the senses Highly toxic components swept away with carrier gas AAS highly intensive flame, Hydrogen, propane etc o Follow SOP o Measuring liquids o Proper storage
EQUIPMENTS HAZARDS o Vaccum or pressure in lab causes hazards, screens o Instruments should be properly earthed o Gas chromatography with flame ionisation with hydrogen gas o Check leakage o Pipette corrosive reagents o Pouring from the bottle o SOP o Heating o Stirring o Cooling
Plant design, manufacture & use • Identify foreseeable hazards • Assess risks, including potential faults • Incorporate existing design standards • Control risks • Specify procedures & operator competencies
RISK MANAGEMENT AND SAFETY MEASURES Hazardous substances • Obtain material safety data sheets • Make safety data accessible • Appropriate labels • Avoid prohibited substances • Carcinogen processes • Employee health surveillance and records
