How to identify contaminated area with NH3 gas and how to

address critical situation, in case of a huge amount of NH3 gas leak?

 

Our Solution: Real Time Dispersion Simulation

 

[Back grounds]

Your site has already installed gas monitoring system which covers indoor and

outdoor area in case when toxic/flammable gases leak will be occurred.

The key device of detecting toxic/flammable gases are sensors. Most parts of

your drills might be mentioned the countermeasures on how to prevent from

accidents.  

 

[Reguratory Status in Thailand]

Department of Industrial Works, The Ministry of Industry is considering

issuing a ministerial regulation that will mandate factories to acquire an

insurance covering 3rd party protection against various accidents.

  [Detecting Devices]

You know that there’re so many kinds of sensors developed such as;

 

l  Metal Oxide Based Gas Sensors,

l  Capacitance Based Gas Sensors

l  Acoustic Wave Based Gas Sensors

l  Calorimetric Gas Sensors

l  Optical gas sensors

l  Electrochemical gas sensors

 

Some detectors are damaged when high concentration dose will be induced to

the detectors. Take example for Ammonia [1], typical electrochemical

ammonia detector will be able to detect only up to 100 - 300 ppm.

Photoionization detector (PID) might be a solution to solve this problem.

 

[1] NIOSH Pocket guide to Chemical Hazards [http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/npg/]

Time Weighted Average: 25ppm

Short term Exposure Limit: 35ppm

Immediate Danger to life and Health: 300ppm

Lower Explosive Limit: 15% (150,000ppm)

[Identify Affected Area in Your Site After Accidents]

How to identify contaminated area with NH3 gas and how to address critical

situation, in case of a huge amount of NH3 gas leak in concentration of above

300 ppm at your site, according to your emergency drills?
