VISTA CHEMICAL CO., ABERDEEN PLANT VCM COMPRESSOR UPGRADE - PHA COMPLETION REPORT SEPTEMBER 2, 1992
IV. SUMMARY OF IDENTIFIED POTENTIAL HAZARDS
1. CAUSE:
Failure or accidental closing of the VCM vapor valve (00HV103) from the sphere, the liquid VCM valve (00HV102) to the sphere, or the railcar isolation valve (00XV120).
CONSEQUENCE:
Cavitation or dead-heading of the VCM
compressors.
This could potentially
damage the compressors and subsequently
cause a VCM leak.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Include the inputs for these valves in the compressor interlocking, such that the compressors are shut down when any of these valves are closed.
RESOLUTION:
The above recommendation has been implemented into the electrical design and operating procedures.
RISK RATING:
4
