New post on The Safety Zone OPRD=E2=80™s safety notables from the literature by Jyllian Kemsley Organic Process Research & Development has just released its 13th annual compilation of safety issues from scientific literature. It covers: Accidents Fire and Explosion Disasters in Aftermath of Great East Japan Earthquake Lab Explosion during Distillation of Propargyl Thiocyanate Lessons Learned from Process Safety Incidents Zinc Plant Explosion Methyl Mercaptan Accident Tianjin Blast Thermal Hazard Evaluations Decoupling Heat Absorption and Generation from Azobis(isobutyronitrile) Decomposition Ammonium Nitrate Thermal Decomposition with Additives Thermal Hazard Assessment for Synthesis of 3-Methylpyridine-N-oxide Analysis of Safety and Kinetic Parameters for Organic Peroxide Decomposition Prediction of Self-Accelerating Decomposition Temperature for Organic Peroxides Math Methods for Application of Experimental Adiabatic Data Vent Sizing of Cumene Hydroperoxide System under Fire Scenario Differential Scanning Calorimetry Analysis of Liquid Sodium-Silica Reaction Beyond the Phi Factor Thermal Stability of Propylene Oxide Hazard Assessment Methodology Systems Theoretic Accident Modeling and Processes (STAMP)-Holistic System Safety Approach or Another Risk Model? Decisions and Decision Support for Major Accident Prevention in Industry Process Safety Management for Managing Contractors in Process Plant Laboratory Safety Culture What Does "Safe" Look and Feel Like? Methods for Identifying Errors in Chemical Process Development and Design Methods and Models in Process Safety and Risk Management: Past, Present and Future Chemical Reactivity in PHA Scale-up and Scalable Reaction Conditions Application of Safety by Design Scale-up of Epoxide Ring-Opening Scale-up of Alkoxyamines Scale-up of Processes using DMSO Alternative Reagents Trifluoromethylation with Sodium Trifluoromethanesulfinate Iodonium Ylides as Safe Carbene Precursors Improved Method for Generation of Ohira-Bestmann Reagent Nonafluorobutanesulfonyl Azide as a Shelf Stable Oxidant Additional Trifluoromethylation with Sodium Trifluoromethanesulfinate Deoxyfluorination of Phenols with PhenoFluorMix New Reagent for Synthesis of CF3-Substituted Arenes and Heteroarenes A New Deoxyfluorination Reagent Dust Hazards Influence of Inert Materials on Flammable Dust Self-Ignition Hazard Evaluation Method for Dust Collector Explosions Dust Explosions in Process Industries Jyllian Kemsley | February 24, 2016 at 7:30 am | Categories: Featured, Industry, Safety resources | URL: http://wp.me/pRCdG-C7C
