Hazard Evaluation Method for Burning Explosives Production Equipment

In order to meet the urgent need of factories to carry out the safety and risk classification and grading management for burning explosives production equipment, a risk probability and risk consequence evaluation system for the production equipment is established based on the existing risk evaluation theory according to the characteristics of military industry. The correction and quantification methods are studied for the comprehensive influencing factors, such as energetic materials, production process, equipment, safety and compensation measures,and accident consequences, and the analysis process and calculation method are established for the mechanical hazard coefficient of production equipment, the hazard coefficient of control system and the evaluation indexes of risk and consequence under the condition of the combustion and explosion shockwave. The correction coefficients of the danger of production process, the casualties and the real danger are introduced to form a new hazard evaluation methodby us for burning explosives production equipment. On this basis, 52 production equipment in typical production lines are selected for the analysis and verification of risk evaluation. The results of equipment measurement and grading coincide with the existing equipment risk management level of a production unit by 100%, which proves the effectiveness of the proposed method for evaluating the risk of the production equipment. The hazard evaluation method for burning explosives production equipment can effectively support the military enterprises to carry out the lean and professional management of the safety and risk of the production equipment. © 2024 China Ordnance Industry Corporation.
