Acetone is one of the most commonly used materials in industry, mainly as a strong solvent in drug, plastic, fiber, paint, and other industries. Acetone is a colorless liquid which evaporates easily and is also a hazardous chemical with consequences of exposure ranging from injuries to death. The release of acetone from a storage tank is a potential hazard to workers, plants, and also the environment. To decrease the impact of acetone vapor, puddle, and leakage, industrial plants have a mitigation plan based on risk reduction for acetone. The aim of this paper is to obtain risk distribution for accidental acetone release from a storage tank by modeling with Areal Location of Hazardous Atmosphere software. Risk distribution was defined in three threat zones. The red threat zone, orange threat zone, and yellow threat zone were determined to extend to distances of 62, 85, and 400 m for the toxic area of acetone vapor cloud; the red threat zone and yellow threat zone were calculated to be 35 and 95 m for the flammable area; and the orange threat zone and yellow threat zone were found to be 27 and 46 m for vapor cloud explosion. Moreover, the maximum average evaporation rate of acetone was 176 g/min. This paper demonstrates important modeling to prevent acetone-related accident risks in an industrial plant.

土耳其伊斯坦布尔化工厂丙酮储罐的风险评估：危险情景模拟

丙酮是工业上最常用的材料之一，主要在药物、塑料、纤维、油漆等工业中作为强溶剂。丙酮是一种无色液体，很容易蒸发，也是一种危险化学品，接触的后果从受伤到死亡不等。从储罐中释放出的丙酮会对工人、工厂和环境造成潜在危害。为了减少丙酮蒸气、水坑和泄漏的影响，工业工厂制定了基于丙酮风险降低的缓解计划。本文的目的是通过使用危险大气的区域定位软件进行建模，获得储罐意外释放丙酮的风险分布。在三个威胁区域中定义了风险分布。红色威胁区，橙色威胁区，确定黄色威胁区延伸至62、85、400 m的丙酮蒸气云毒区；红色威胁区和黄色威胁区计算为35和95 m为易燃区域；发现橙色威胁区和黄色威胁区为27和46 m的蒸气云爆炸。此外，丙酮的最大平均蒸发速率为 176 g/min。本文展示了重要的模型，以防止工业工厂中与丙酮相关的事故风险。丙酮的最大平均蒸发速率为176 g/min。本文展示了重要的模型，以防止工业工厂中与丙酮相关的事故风险。丙酮的最大平均蒸发速率为176 g/min。本文展示了重要的模型，以防止工业工厂中与丙酮相关的事故风险。
