Consequence Modelling and Analysis of Methane Explosions: A prelimi-nary Study on Biogas Stations

Biomass is one of the most important sources renewable energy. resources can be utilized by producing biogas in stations, which include process equipment operating critical conditions. In this study, a consequence analysis methane gas explosion carried out to estimate and toxic threat zones station Turkey. ALOHA PHAST Software Tools are used realize an modelling scenarios thus effects just get insight on explosion. By using software, two different as leakage from tank flammable chemical escaping directly into atmosphere designed calculated Gaussian model. addition that, scenario storage catastrophic rupture computed Software. According first results ALOHA, explosions cause destruction buildings, serious injuries shattering glasses about 200 m while second only seen 22 zone. The show that do not change significantly at weather It found has maximum hazard zone limits among all scenarios. been concluded model-based software useful understand possible plant explosions.
