【Safety Inspection】I would like to ask experts: How does the identification of major hazard sources apply to accident storage tanks?

Expert, may I ask: How does the identification of major hazard sources apply to accident-related transfer tanks? Our company has a tank for hazardous chemicals and an accident spill tank; the accident spill tank is not used to store materials. So when calculating the level of hazard, should this be taken into account?
Someone, is it because my question is too basic, or has everyone already gone on the weekend?
It seems it should be included. The revised version requires that everything be taken into account: whatever amount of material can be held is counted, and the same goes for the number of containers – the number of containers present is taken into consideration.
Check the status of the materials and the personnel management; safety cannot be taken lightly!
Well, when conducting HAZOP analysis and SIL classification, factors that require less time can be taken into consideration.
Is there any explicit regulation? I don’t think so
To determine the SIL level through HAZOP analysis, any situation in which it is used should be included within the scope of safety control.
The accident dump tank is used only in the event of an accident; when there is a leak, the material is directed into this tank. Therefore, as per the design, it doesn’t have a specified capacity
This process still needs to be included in the HAZOP analysis.
