The Environmental Risk Assessment of Fire and Explosion in Storage Tanks of Petroleum Products

The present study provides a framework for assessing the environmental risk associated with fire and explosion of gasoline storage tanks in oil depots. proposed includes three main steps: problem formulation, analysis, description. necessary basic details were identified collected formulating problem. source, pathway, receptor (SPR) model was employed analysis process. Each part analyzed using tools that provide appropriate results maintain integrity; additionally, findings can be used whole Dow Fire Explosion Index (F&EI) deployed to scrutinize pollutant dispersion transmission path characteristics measured inspect vulnerability indicators degree impact determined receptor. Finally, assessment presented form description tables. purpose this integration develop thoroughly evaluating point consequences providing better understanding outcomes. This study, conducted first time specifically an depot, exhaustive view highly contributing managers decision makers.
