  • incident analysis of bucheon lpg Filling Station pool fire and bleve
    Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2006
    Co-Authors: Kyoshik Park, Young Do Jo, Nir Keren, Sam M Mannan, Yanjun Wang
    Abstract:

    An LPG Filling Station incident in Korea has been studied. The direct cause of the incident was concluded to be faulty joining of the couplings of the hoses during the butane unloading process from a tank lorry into an underground storage tank. The faulty connection of a hose to the tank lorry resulted in a massive leak of gas followed by catastrophic explosions. The leaking source was verified by calculating the amount of released LPG and by analyzing captured photos recorded by the television news service. Two BLEVEs were also studied.

  • simplified risk assessment on fire hazard of lpg Filling Station
    Korean Journal of Chemical Engineering, 2017
    Co-Authors: Kyoshik Park
    Abstract:

    Layer of protection analysis (LOPA) was conducted on the fire hazard of LPG Filling Stations. Scenarios were developed for jet fire, pool fire, and boiling liquid expanding vapor explosion (BLEVE). For each scenario, independent protection layers (IPLs) of the LPG Station were identified and their frequencies were estimated. Risk matrix to determine the risk category was constructed, combining consequence and frequency of each scenario. Three additional IPLs were considered, such as a firewall between the tank lorry parking area and LPG facility, water deluge system for tank lorry, and excess flow shutdown valve for liquid pipeline to stop unexpected excess flow. Adding such IPLs could markedly reduce the risk to the facility.

  • liquid hydrogen for motor vehicles the world s first public lh2 Filling Station
    International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 2001
    Co-Authors: Klaus Pehr, O. Traeger, Peter Sauermann, M. Bracha
    Abstract:

    In May 1999 the first public Filling Station for liquid hydrogen was taken into service at Munich Airport. The Filling Station operates fully automatically and initially it will supply a fleet of vehicles with hydrogen that are used in special service at the airport and in the BMW vehicle fleet. For this purpose vehicle, refueling and robot technologies have been consistently further developed and integrated in the framework of the Hydrogen Project Munich Airport. As part of this project, supported by the Bavarian State Ministry for Economy, Transport and Technology, 13 partners are examining the hydrogen energy chain extending from the generation of hydrogen through logistics up to the operative applications in vehicles.

  • Awareness, acceptability and attitudes towards hydrogen vehicles and Filling Stations: A Greater Stavanger case study and comparisons with London
    International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 2008
    Co-Authors: Gunnar Thesen, Oluf Langhelle
    Abstract:

    Abstract This article investigates the determinants of knowledge and acceptability of hydrogen vehicles and Filling Stations among residents in the Greater Stavanger area on the west coast of Norway and compares the results with the findings from a London case study. The data were collected from 1000 residents and based on the survey developed and used by O'Garra, et al. Int J Hydrogen Energy 2005; 30: 649–659. The results indicate that hydrogen as a fuel for transport is better known in Greater Stavanger and also that the population is clearly more favourable towards the introduction of hydrogen vehicles. Although only just over one third are clearly in favour of the introduction of hydrogen vehicles in London, the number in Greater Stavanger is close to 60%. The key determinants of acceptability discussed are prior knowledge and awareness of hydrogen, sociodemographic background variables and environmental knowledge. In addition, the study also explores the effects of proximity to the Filling Station. The site for the location of the London Filling Station was a matter of public controversy and met with resistance from people living close to the Filling Station. Based on these experiences, the Greater Stavanger sample was divided into two. One sample was drawn from residents living within a 1-km circle of the location of the Filling Station, and one control sample was drawn from the Greater Stavanger area. Somewhat surprisingly, the support for the introduction of hydrogen vehicles is greater among people living closer to the Filling Station than in the region as such.
