| Abstract |
These guidelines were prepared within the framework of an ILO/FRG technical cooperation project in Indonesia in April 1990. They provide information on the safe operation of chemical plants and may be used both for inspection activities and in the training of inspectors and plant operators. Contents: preliminary meeting with the management to collect information on the processes, substances, process parameters and installations within the plant; selection of sample areas for inspection; plant integrity (design standards, plant operation and control, safety systems, preventive maintenance, plant inspections and tests); process deviations; emergency procedures; visit to the site; recording and reporting of inspection. Annexes provide specific guidance for various processes and equipment. |
