Chemical Safety Evaluation & Testing

Laboratory data and engineering interpretation — thermal stability, calorimetry, dust explosibility, reactivity, flammability.

Strategic context

Why chemical safety evaluation & testing matters

Chemical Safety Evaluation translates laboratory measurement into engineering decision. Thermal stability, calorimetric runaway profiles, dust explosibility (Kst, Pmax, MIE, MIT, LOC), flammability limits, reactivity screening, and vent-sizing data are the foundation under every credible hazard study, relief design, and ISD review. Our work integrates accredited testing — DSC, ARC, VSP2, 20-L sphere, ASTM and CEFIC protocols — with engineering interpretation that converts data into safe operating windows, MTSR limits, and DIERS-sized vent areas you can defend at FSA Stage 2 or post-incident.

Chemical Safety Evaluation & Testing
Engagement model

How we deliver

A phased, evidence-led delivery model — from discovery through close-out — built around your facility, regulatory context, and lifecycle stage.

Literature Screen & Test Plan
CHETAH, Bretherick, Yoshida indices; NOAA Reactivity worksheet; design tiered test programme matched to chemistry hazard profile and downstream engineering needs.
Calorimetric & Explosibility Testing
DSC, ARC, VSP2 / Phi-Tec, 20-L sphere, MIE / MIT / LOC per ASTM and CEFIC protocols at accredited (ISO/IEC 17025) labs.
Engineering Interpretation
Stoessel classification, MTSR / TMR24 / SADT calculation, safe operating window definition, DIERS vent-sizing inputs prepared.
Design Recommendations
Issue vent sizing, control philosophy, inerting strategy, kill-system specification, and HAZOP / SIL allocation inputs.
Dossier Issue (PSI-grade)
Compile OSHA PSM Process Safety Information dossier with raw data, classification, design basis — survives FSA Stage 2 / regulator examination.
Outcomes & value

What this service delivers
