Risk assessment using pool fire and health index analysis at bioenergy plant

Risk assessment is recognized as a complete process of identifying a hazard and evaluating the risk either in absolute or relative terms. Risks at Vance Bioenergy Sdn Bhd are measured by identifying the most hazardous and flammability of raw material used in methyl ester and refined glycerin plant....
