Application of ISO 31000 standard on tailings dam safety

ISO 31000:2009--Setting a new standard for risk management.

Last year saw the publication of IS0 31000:2009, a new globally accepted standard for risk management together with a new, associated vocabulary in ISO Guide 73:2009. These were developed through a consensus-driven process over four years, through seven drafts, and involving the input of hundreds of risk management professionals around the world. The new standard supports a new, simple way of t...

Floods from tailings dam failures.

This paper compiles the available information on historic tailings dam failures with the purpose to establish simple correlations between tailings ponds geometric parameters (e.g., dam height, tailings volume) and the hydraulic characteristics of floods resulting from released tailings. Following the collapse of a mining waste dam, only a part of tailings and polluted water stored at the dam is...

Iso 22000 Standard: a Food Safety Management System

Given this, initiatives have been undertaken in many countries to formulate more or less voluntary rules. But the vast increase in the number of private reference systems based on the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) method led to a certain amount of confusion among the various groups in the food industry. In September 2005, after three years of work, ISO published a universal ref...
