This book focuses on the probability of occurrence rather than the consequences of an occurrence, which is an area that has been studied much more and is easier to quantify. A subcommittee of the Center for Chemical Process Safety compiled data collected over two years and developed the algorithms and the associated calculation tool. The introduction covers a brief history of fire protection, risk-based approaches to flammables management, industry needs, and limitations in applications. Following are estimation methods, technical background and data sources, and worked examples in chemical and petrochemical plants, oil refineries, and other contexts Annotation ©2014 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)

Complemented by an estimating tool spreadsheet based on a fixed set of chemicals to assist in risk estimations, Probability of Ignition of a Released Flammable Mass converts a "best guess" to a calculated value based on available information and current technology. The text documents and explains the science and background of the technology-based approach. The tool, when populated with appropriate data, yields an estimate of the probability that a defined release of a flammable material will ignite if exposed to an ignition source. This information can be used to make risk assessments with a higher degree of confidence than estimates made before and it provides valuable information for use in the development of a facility's Emergency Response Plan.
