D.6.1.3 Physical Effect Modelling
The objective of consequence modelling is to identify the magnitude and extent of
major accident consequences on people, plant and surrounding.
The consequence arises from Chlorine gas releases could lead to people being
overexposed to hazardous toxic gas.
The following table is adopted from DOSH guidelines, provides the criteria of effects
for chlorine acute health effect.
Hazard
Hazard Type Effects on Human Effects on Property
Criteria
Toxic Gas Release
10ppm Immediate danger to life Not foreseeable effects on
(IDLH) and health property
Toxic Gas
(Acute Effect) 495ppm Significant injury and Not foreseeable effects on
(50% fatality) fatality property
4827ppm Not foreseeable effects on
(100% fatality) 100% fatality probability property
D.6.1.4 Consequences Analysis Result
The consequence analysis and results are presented in the Appendix D1.
Appendix D1 shows the summary of the analysis of the outcomes, and the impact
contours indicated on the plant layout or map.
The consequences to the surrounding community likely to be affected by major
accidents are presented in Table D.6.1.4.
Figure D.6.1.4 provides the relationship of the consequence maximum distance from
release source of an accident event and the acute health effects (IDLH, 50% fatality
and 100% fatality).
From the analysis, under the single failure event of “storage door opened”, the
maximum consequence distance is highest at “drum rupture”, and followed by “major
leak” and “small leak”.
