Inertisation against explosive dust, gas and liquids.
SAFE PROTECTION AGAINST EXPOLOSIONS and FIRES
USING INERTIZATION PROCESSES
Yara Industrial GmbH : Intelligent systems and safety solutions
with inert gases.
Detecting sources of danger.
The hazards caused by so-called hot spots or smoldering fires,
sudden spontaneous combustion and explosions lurk everywhere in industry and
business, storage, processing and when transporting combustible powders and
liquids.
As an effective preventive measure, Yara offers innovative
technological systems based on inert gases. Inert gases have a low level of
reactivity, and reduce the oxygen concentration to below the critical level.
Through the use of intelligent systems in the receptacles and
equipment requiring protection, inert gas prevents the occurence of critical
operating conditions from within and consequently any resulting explosions and
fires.
Yara Industrial GmbH :
Safety Concepts for complex requirements.
The utilized materials
:
The following inert gases are recommended.
Carbon dioxide
Nitrogen
Stream
Flue gases or
Noble gases
Complying with regulations.
In co-operation
with the insurers for occupational accidents, legislation has privided all users
and shippers involved in this critical area with strict regulations and safety
requirements, which must be adhered to,
On
international level the ATEX regulations have to be considered for
explosion prevention. In addition the guidelines CEN/TR 1528, VDI 2263-2
and BGV C15 are used.
As an
effective preventive measure YARA offers innovative technological
systems based on inert gases. Inert gases have a low level of reactivity
and reduce the Oxygen concentration to below the critical level.
By use
of intelligent systems in ther machinery and equipment reqiring
protection, inert gas prevents the occurence of critical operating
conditions from within and consequently any resulting explosions and
fires.
YARA
offers a complete service package, starting with the determination of
the state of risks up to the ready to use start up of the inertization
plant.
The use
of inert gases effectively prevents the spontaneous combustion of
flammable dust, liquids, and gases as well as the oxidation of oxygen
sessitive products.
Specially adopted
technology.
Depending on the
individual task or existing flow of material during processing Yara will prepare
a customer -specific concept consisting of the utilized media and reliable
processing technology inclusive of the appropriate control technology for the
transportation and storage of hazardous materials.
An
efficient safety concept therefore consists of the perfected technical analysis
of the actual condition of the potential hazardous situation.
This
is followed by the selection of the proper inert gas according to the individual
requirements and the development of the corresponding processing technology
which in turn is based on the areas of utilization and the functions.
In
this regards, Yara offers a closed chain of services which extends from the
analyses of the condition of the danger through to an examination of the
condition of a relevant preventive measure.
YARA : Tried and trusted

Functional : Storage and Dosing Yara safety concept includes the
calculation of the required gas requirement and its storage as well as the
system specific continuous and standby inertization
An interruption in the operational sequence during the inertization is no
longer needed.
Technology :
Yara determines the required technical layout for the actual storage receptacle
on the site, including all safety equipment and any fittings prescribed required
by relevant safety
authorities (TÜV in Germany) as well as the requirement for valve
stations and monitoring equipment for temperature, oxygen, or carbon
dioxide.
Electronics :
The custom tailored electronic equipment includes the required CPU controlled
dosing system. This can be activated individually on the equipment itself or
automatically via the control room.
