Abstract: The trend toward larger chemical processing plants and larger transportation units has placed ever increasing demands on fire safety systems. The economics of scale normally dictate larger processing units in order to reduce unit costs. The potential hazard of a massive accidental chemical release has placed strains on the ability of fire safety engineers to provide adequate hazard fire control systems. While the accident frequency has not indicated hazardous material operations are increasing in proportion with expanded process capacity (1), the total number of significant incidents is increasing. Modern communications has spotlighted the few serious accidents and increased the publics awareness of the potential consequences of such incidents. In response to this awareness regulatory bodies are requiring that industry increase its ability to avoid these accidents.
