Response to Reactive Chemicals Review - Glycol 1 New Superintendent
1. The plant's reactive chemicals files/slides for the new titanium
degasser will be updated to include the safeguards for the
reactor trips and the avoidance of a titanium/chlorine reaction.
Responsibility:
Roger Thompson
Expected Completion: 2/95
2. Glycol 1 will review wilh Solvents the procedures and
safeguards in place for preventing the mixing of the Glycol 1
and R&D Methocel pilot plant vent streams.
Responsibility:
Ruth Rabalais
Expected Completion: 2/95
3. The plant will review this CRI report with the COG Tech Center.
We will modify our current procedures of a 25% trip only with
the recommendations of the Tech Center. We have our current
alarms and shutdowns to comply with the current Tech Center
guidelines for all of the PO plants. All changes must be
approved by the Tech Center to allow for standardization of the
technology globally.
