PROCESS SAFETY CHALLENGE
A fertiliser plant burns natural gas in a hot air generator and uses the hot air to dry the product. The natural gas line inside the enclosed fertiliser plant building is getting corroded due to the corrosive atmosphere inside. Recently, a leak occured in the natural gas line due to corrosion. The NG line pressure is 2.5 barg. A suggestion to enclose the NG line inside the building with an enclosure and providing gas detectors within that enclosure has been raised. You are the MOC (management of change) approving authority. Will you agree for this change? If not, please list down your comments.
