Typically, blast parameters at large distances from an explosive charge can be predicted with reasonable confidence with fast-running engineering models. However, when the charge is in close proximity to a target, the analyst’s confidence in these engineering tools tends to diminish. Generally, there is limited test data available against which such tools can be validated for this purpose.
As the biofuels industry continues to expand in support of global decarbonization mandates and objectives, facility owners and developers are being challenged to balance production efficiency, operational reliability, and personnel safety.
As high hazard facilities, biofuels sites should focus on developing a fire protections strategy informed by performance-based analysis so strategies implemented meet the unique challenges found at each facility.
