1. Instruments used in safety laboratories

There are many types of data used in a process safety study. Here are some examples:

  • enthalpy of reaction ;

  • enthalpy of secondary reactions ;

  • mass heat capacity ;

  • adiabatic temperature rise ;

  • the temperature of first exotherm ;

  • adiabatic runaway time; etc.

Measuring these data can require a considerable effort, even though not all these quantities are necessarily useful in all cases. It is therefore important to use a systematic approach that limits the experimental effort to the data required to solve the problem at hand. This systematic approach, described in detail in the article
