69655 - PLANT FACILITIES AND SAFETY DESIGN M

Learning outcomes

Part 1

A comprehensive review of the factors that influence the selection, design, specification and placement of most important and common industrial facilities.

Part 2

The course aim to introduce the students to the safety and occupational in the production systems, in reference to the Italian relevant legislation (TU n.81 del 9/4/2008, Dlgs. N.106 del 3/8/2009). The course purposes models and methods to support the risk prevention and protection.

Course contents

Part 1

Topics on Plant facilities will include:

industrial piping for fluid distribution

combined production of heating and electric power; comparison among different power stations (turbogas, internal-combustion engine)

Plant design with solar panels and heat pumps; economic assessment

Design of industrial electrical systems

Facilities for wealth and safety at work: noise protection, electric hazards, lighting

Part 2

Introduction

Introduction to the safety in the production systems. The safety culture: the taxonomy of the accidents; the costs of non-safety. The accidents costs and statistics. The INAIL database of accidents. Frequency index and accidents gravity.

The safety in industrial plants

The risk and the risk index. Definition of accident. Risk analysis, Risk evaluation. The risk in the industrial plants. The safety system design. Classification of safety intervention levels. Protection and prevention interventions. The cost/efficacy diagram. The protection efficacy.

Industrial plant health and safety safeguard

The risk prevention in Italy: the Testo Unico n.81/2008 and next integrations (Dlgs. N.106 del 3/8/2009). The structure of Testo Unico. The institutional system. The Prevention and Protection Service (SPP) and his responsible (RSPP). The workers representative for safety (RLS). The risk evaluation document (DVR). Risk reduction. The safety organization and management model (SGSL): UNI-INAIL 28/9/2001 and OHSAS 18001:07. The use of Equipment. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Safety and health signs [http://context.reverso.net/traduzione/inglese-italiano/signs] used at work.

Ergonomics and Biomechanical risk

The Manual Handling of Loads (MMC). The legislation (ISO11228_1-2-3). The risk evaluation methods: NIOSH (National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health); Snock Ciriello; OCRA (Occupational Ripetitive Action). The ergonomic design of work stations. The prevention of biomechanical risk.

Mechanical risk

The Mechanical risk: Machinery Directive 2006/42/CE. The CE marking.

Fire-fighting risk

The legislation. The fire characteristics and classification. The fire damage. The fire prevention: the structural prevention and smoke prevention. The fire protection: passive and active protection.

Teaching methods

module 1

The course consists of 6 credits of lectures and practical exercises in the classroom for a total of 60 hours. The aim of practical training is to provide the student with sensitivity on the sizing of the main auxiliary facilities or service, in terms of plant layout, service capabilities and compliance with technical standards, and with the consequent ability to bring to a numeric result in a correct evaluation interval

module 2 The course consists of 3 ECTS lectures and more practical exercises in the classroom , for a total of 30 hours , with testimonies and seminars on specific topics .

Assessment methods

For students enrolled in the module 1 6 CFU

The exam consists of a written test lasting up to three hours including the theoretical and practical development of three arguments , two of which are theoretical issues and a numeric - themed application , chosen from those shown in the program . The rating is assigned based on the overall assessment of the whole test

For students enrolled in module1 and module 2 from 9 total CFU

The exam consists of a written test lasting up to three hours including the theoretical and practical development of three arguments , two of which theoretical issues ( whether the issue is one from module 1 and one from module 2 ) and a numeric - themed application . The rating is assigned based on the overall assessment of the whole test
