Effect of Air in the Thermal Decomposition of 50 wt.% Hydroxylamine/water
(Mary Kay O'Connor Process Safety Center, 2001)
This paper presents experimental measurements of the thermal decomposition reaction of 50 wt% hydroxylamine/water (HA) in an oxygen-free environment using an APTAC calorimeter. Overall kinetics, onset temperatures, heats ...
Using Screening Test Data to Classify Reactive Chemicals Hazards
(Mary Kay O'Connor Process Safety Center, 2002)
The evaluation of reactive hazards is necessary for the safe working of the chemical process industries. An integral aspect of reactive hazard testing is the screening of chemicals to focus experimental efforts on the more ...
Prevention and Suppression of Metal Packing Fires
(Mary Kay O'Connor Process Safety Center, 2002)
Structured packing has been widely used because of large surface area that makes possible columns with high capacity and efficiency. The large surface area also contributes to fire hazards because of hydrocarbon deposits ...
