Industrial leaks and explosions put thousands of civilians’ lives at stake. Many workers get injured while working at the industrial premises. It leads to damage in manufacturing areas and factory sites. Management should enforce proper safety regulations and strict measures if anyone disobeys them. The workers must have the proper training to work with hazardous equipment that can lead to an accident. Factors that contribute to this cause are the workers with lack of safety training. Poor maintenance of machines also contributes to the problem.

Causes of Leaks and Explosion
Equipment

•         Disrepair of the gas holder
•         Movement obstruction of the bell housing

Materials

•         Poor monitoring on the use of unsafe chemicals
•         Lack of raw   material for repairs

People/ individual

•         Unsafe operation
•         Nonfeasance in the overhaul
•         Illegal parking

  Environment

•         Inadequate safe distance
•         Excess vehicles on the way
•         High temperature object from nearby

External supervision

•         Poor supervision of safety dept.
•         Nonfeasance of land/ resource department
•         Nonfeasance of traffic control department

Internal management

•         Insufficient employee training
•         Inferior facility management
•         Bad hazard management
•         Improper safety training
•         Low safety budget
•         Poor safety culture

In this template, I have tried to investigate the root cause analysis of this problem.
It is a template created with smartQED. It is a simple, yet easy-to-use tool to analyze an incident. smartQED also helps create a knowledge base of visual incident maps and do an effective RCA.

Who should use the Causes of Leaks and Explosion template?

• Anyone who needs to find out the vital causes for leaks and explosion.

Why use this template?

• Easily figure out what induces leakage and causes a hazardous chemical accident in the process industry.
• Alter this template using smartQED  for your own problem-solving.
• Create or customize your own templates for various types of problem and incident analysis in smartQED.
