CSB Safety Video: Fire From Ice

On February 16, 2007, a propane fire erupted at the Valero McKee Refinery in Sunray, Texas, north of Amarillo. Three workers suffered serious burns, and the refinery was forced to shut down. The fire began following a leak in the propane deasphalting unit and spread quickly, in part because of the rapid collapse of a major pipe rack carrying flammable hydrocarbons. Some of the rack's support columns had not been fireproofed.

@ETM Nation - Best ETM Music Nope, I disagree. Safety is expensive. Maintence is expensive. The Big boys in the boardrooms are the ones who shave those profit margins. Middle Managers are caught where they manage- in the middle, sweating it out at the Refinery, praying something does not go boom. Good, pro-active managers cost extra, and they are a pain in the ass to deal with, constantly harping on the real needs of the plant, too. So, when that Big Boss is looking to impress his "Bigger boss" with a .02% profit margin over last year and collect that 50 grand Christmas bonus, you can bet he redlined the Hell out of the maintenance budget and laid off a few safety people to get it. No skin off his back from 3rd-degree burns. Notice that abandoned piping stayed in the grid for 15 Years! Wanna bet the ass hole who made the decision not to remove it did it in order to save a little off the maintenance budget, has retired or moved onto a big promotion since then?

[@akshona]

Another reason to use Ball Valves instead of Gate Valves. You will know if their not completely closed because of the handle position.

[@tetrabromobisphenol]

Ball valves can leak past their packing into the atmosphere, creating a hazard that way. There is no totally fail-safe valve topology. What really was needed was basic instrumentation to verify at minimum the pressure in the dead leg, and better yet flow rates in and out the active legs of the rest of the unit. These guys have more than enough money to afford a few $k in additional gauges and instrumentation to verify proper operation.

[@letserb]

Ball valves are fine, but easily opened. A gate valve is a slow open valve. Both valves have their useful areas of use.

[@tttarms1970]

@@tetrabromobisphenol ef seal packing...

[@benassi88]

Quarter turn valves, such as ball valves, have a better packing solution nowadays than linear valves such as gate valves. Quarter turn of the valve shaft creates less friction on the valve packing. In a linear valve the shaft rotates and moves upward / downward, putting way more stress on the valve packing.
