Development of generic scenarios of industrial accidents triggered by floods: a first step toward decreasing the vulnerability of industrial facilities
Interactions between natural events and industrial installations may lead to dangerous phenomena such as: fires, explosions, or toxic dispersions. The industrial sector is often unprepared for these Natech events, increasing its vulnerability. The final purpose of this study is to help industrial facilities to decrease their vulnerability to accidents triggered by floods. In order to attain thi...
متن کاملبررسی حوادث حمل و نقل جاده ای مواد خطرناک در ایران
Background and aims: All over the world, and particularly in industrialized countries, the transport of hazardous materials has till years a continuously increasing trend. Public concern is focused mainly on road and rail transport, since the routes used for road and rail transportation of hazardous substances necessarily come closer and sometimes also cross densely populated areas. In this st...
متن کاملIndustrial accidents triggered by natural hazards: an emerging risk issue
The threat of natural hazards impacting chemical facilities and infrastructures with the subsequent release of hazardous substances has been recognised as an emerging risk which is likely to be exacerbated by the ongoing climate change. Within the European FP7 project iNTeg-Risk, efforts are dedicated to address the problem of Natech accidents by trying to understand their underlying causes and...
متن کاملRapid analysis of risk assessment using developed simulation of chemical industrial accidents software package
The environmental consequences are defined as consequences of accidental release of hazardous substances to the natural environment. This release can lead to many hazards depending on the material stored. The consequences of these hazards to the environment are widespread and have significant importance to human communities living in the surroundings. The mathematical models are extremely usefu...
متن کاملQuantitative evaluation of the domino effects of the explosion caused by the CNG fuel station using consequence modeling and GIS
Introduction: compressed natural gas stations are one of the most critical and dangerous urban land uses and should be highly regarded. The domino effects of accidents are essential concepts in urban areas. The present study aims to analyze explosive domino accidents at compressed natural gas stations (CNG). Modeling the consequence in fuel stations can minimize the likelihood of a crisis and l...
