Issues regarding VCE in the \"Code for Layout Design of Petrochemical Plants\" (GB50984-2014)
Thread Content
Dear experts and teachers: The \"Code for Layout Design of Petrochemical Plants\" (GB50984-2014) specifies VCE explosive hazards and sources of high-level leakage. I would like to ask the experts: 1. How can it be determined that a particular installation constitutes a VCE explosive hazard or a source of high-level leakage? 2. Do the installed equipment in operation prior to 2014 comply with the \"Code for Layout Design of Petrochemical Plants\" (GB50984-2014)?
See Note 4.8.2 of the specification provisions
Hello, I was wondering if the teacher has any previous cases they have worked on? Can I refer to it? Thank you.
VCE explosion hazards: 1. Within hazardous process unit areas (>500㎡)； 2. Equipment containing (or having) explosive materials during the processing process (materials such as C2, C3, C4, and thermally unstable C5 that can cause vapor cloud explosions) in quantities exceeding 10 tons. Devices built before 2014 that comply with building codes and petrochemical regulations; if they do not meet the requirements specified in GB50984-2014, this should be pointed out during relevant project reviews or expert inspections, and corresponding corrective measures must also be taken, otherwise it will be difficult to get approval from the emergency management authorities and experts.
