OSHA Inspection: UNION CARBIDE CORPORATION

Accident-driven inspection · Safety discipline

On , OSHA opened an accident-driven safety inspection of UNION CARBIDE CORPORATION in HWY 185 NORTH, SEADRIFT, TX 77983 (NAICS 000000). OSHA activity number 110398310.

What this inspection record means

OSHA opens inspections for many reasons: routine scheduling under a national or local emphasis program, an employee complaint or referral, or a follow-up after a reported injury. Opening or conducting an inspection is not itself an allegation or a finding that this employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

The employer is not limited to the abatement methods suggested by OSHA;
the methods explained are general and may not be effective in all cases;
and the employer is responsible for selecting and carrying out an
effective abatement method.
Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970:  The
employer did not furnish employment and a place of employment which were
free from recognized hazards that were causing or likely to cause death
or serious physical harm to employees in that R.O. Pittman was exposed
to the recognized hazard of fire and explosion in that:
I.  The employer did not utilize effective Process Controls
to prevent employee exposure to the hazards of fire and
explosion in that:
A.  The employer did not design and operate the
Oxide Recovery Process with effective process
controls in that:
a.  The employer did not operate the Number
One Oxide Recovery Still (No. 1 ORS
Column) with redundant temperature in-
dicator/transmitters.
b.  The employer did not utilize an
effective Calibration Program for critical
instrumentation such as the temperature
indicator/transmitter in the Number One
Oxide Recovery Still (No. 1 ORS Column).
c.  The employer did not utilize an
effective means of determining if con-
tamination such as water, caustic and
acids existed or was introduced into the
Number One Oxide Recovery Still (No. 1 ORS
Column).  A tube leak in the Number One
Oxide Recovery Still poses a major
process hazard in that the potential
exists to dump hot condensate from the
Calandria and into the column.
d)  The employer did not operate the
Purifying Column Tails pump with an
automatic shut-off device to prevent
overheating.
B.  The employer did not utilize a means of detecting
spot heating on equipment subject to spot heating or
clad all appropriate equipment with nonabsorptive
insulation which was not subject to spot heating.
C.  The employer did not design the Number One Oxide
Recovery Still Reboiler (Calandria) of stainless steel
or verify that the Reboiler (Calandria) was essentially
rust-free.
D.  The employer did not utilize a means of prevent-
ing equipment such as valves from being left in the
wrong position during pre and post start-up of the
Number One Oxide Unit.
One feasible means of abatement among others would
include the following:
a.  Utilize effective process control systems such
as stipulated by the Guidelines for Vapor Release
Mitigation of the Standard for Chemical Process
Safety of the American Institute of Chemical
Engineers.
b.  Utilize redundant temperature transmitter/
indicators which are readable in the control
room and use an automatic shutoff device on
the Purifying Column Tails Pump or elimination
of ethylene oxide from the Purifying Column
tails stream.
c.  Utilization of linear heat detectors on equipment
which is clad with insulation subjecting it to spot
heating or the use of appropriate insulation material
which does not absorb water or ethylene oxide (e.g.,
cellular glass).
d.  Construct the Number One Oxide Recovery Still
Reboiler (Calandria) of stainless steel or maintain
the Reboiler (Calandria) essentially rust-free.
e.  Prepare and require employees to use pre and
post-startup checklists.
II.  The employer did not use or implement adequate methods
to minimize the consequences of fire and explosion in that:
A.  The employer did not locate the Ethylene Oxide
Tank Farm a sufficiently safe distance from the
Number One Oxide Unit.  Adequate spacing is critical
to minimize or eliminate the potential involvement of
the Tank Farm due to a fire and or explosion in a high
hazard process unit.
B.  The employer did not assure that the Oxide
Control Building was able to withstand an explosion
by being explosion resistant or explosion absorptive.
The Oxide Control Building is in an extremely vuner-
able location in the Oxide Unit and due to its design
is likely to be severly damaged in an explosive
event.
One feasible means of abatement among others would include
the following:
1)  Comply with industry recognized custom and
practices for spacing high hazard process units from
high hazard Tank Farms.  The industry recognized
custom and practice is specified in the Industrial
Risk Insurers publication entitled General Recommen-
dations for Spacing in Refineries, Petrochemical
Plants, Gasoline Plants, Terminals, Oil Pumps,
Stations, and Offshore Properties, or comply with
explosion resistant or explosion absorptive design
specifications for building design.
