Hazardous Materials & Hazardous Waste Management

The Hazardous Material Removal Program will provide all academic departments and faculty with the opportunity to dispose of unneeded hazardous chemicals and radioactive material with no EH&S recharge. The disposal program will be organized building by building and advanced notice will be given to each department. Radioactive waste and materials along with routine chemical waste will be collecte...

Comparison of the Effects of Different Fire Test Regimes on Passive Fire Protection Materials

In the past, HSE’s Health and Safety Laboratory (HSL) has studied the performance of a variety of passive fire protection (PFP) materials in protecting a part-filled LPG tank subjected to hydrocarbon pool fire engulfment. However, this is only one potential fire incident scenario that can threaten a process vessel; another is a jet fire, perhaps resulting from an ignited release from a leaking ...

Hazardous Materials Transport Risk

In this paper, we propose toll-setting as an alternative policy tool to regulate the use of roads for dangerous goods shipments. We propose a mathematical formulation as well as a solution method for the hazardous materials tool problem. Based on a comparative analysis of proposed mathematical models, we show that toll policies can be more effective than the popular network design policies that...
