Operator Training & Safety
Operator Training & Safety
(OP)
I am, once again, thrown into the deep end!
I am in charge of training and safety of a new plant. I have to train the operators and other personnel concerned with safety. What I have is operational procedures for all the units on the plant as well as a simulator to simulate conditions and operations on the plant.
I have to come up with a curriculum (outcome), them a syllabus (what needs to be covered) and then work out lectures. Where do I start?
The only "training" experience I have is the part-time lecturing ICP-N3 at a college once.
ANY inputs will be much appreciated!

RE: Operator Training & Safety
What I would do in your situation is find out what the hazards are in your plant. These should have been identified during the design of the plant.
When you have a list of the hazards, you describe for every hazard what the consequences can be in case the hazard is released, and what the protection strategy is. Usually there are several protection layers for every hazard.
The operators must be aware of the hazards inherent to the plant, and must know how to protect against these hazards.
In a hydrocarbon processing plant, one of the major hazards is often the presence of large quantities of flammable material. These can result in pool fires, flash fires, vapour cloud explosions etc. The protection strategy involves the drainage system, fire and gas detection system, fireproofing, fixed water spray (deluge), monitors, mobile and portable equipment etc. You can detail out each layer of the protection strategy (e.g. location of fire detectors, what types are used (e.g. IR/UV flame detection) and how do they work, are there any trips activated by the detection system).
Don't forget the common hazards such as falling from heights, asphyxiation hazard, vessel entries, hazards related to traffic, slippery surfaces, legionella in stagnant water lines, extreme weather conditions etc.
I wish you good luck with this interesting assignment!

Can u tell something about the process.
does the process also involve use of chemicals like SiCl4,SiHCl3 and SiH2Cl2 ?
