Standards for Establishing Places for Manufacturing, Storing, Processing Public Hazardous Substances and Flammable Pressurized Gases, and Regulations on Safety Control of such Places Article 15-1
General processing place with operation procedures and process quantities that meet the following requirements, and the compartment in the construction uses structures that meet Table 1.1 shall be exempt from the preceding article 13.1.2 to 13.1.5 and 13.1.7 (an example of usage areas in general processing place is shown in Diagram 1):1. Spray painting, paint coating, and printing process areas that use Class 2 or Class 4 public hazardous materials (excluding special flammable materials) where the quantity processed is less than 30 times the control quantity.2. Cleaning process areas that use Class 4 public hazardous materials with flash points above 40℃ where the quantity processed is less than 30 times the control quantity.3. Quench process areas that use Class 4 public hazardous materials with flash points above 70℃ where the quantity processed is less than 30 times the control quantity.4. Boiler equipment areas that use Class 4 public hazardous materials with flash points above 40℃ where the quantity processed is less than 30 times the control quantity.5. Hydraulic equipment areas that use high flash point materials with operating temperatures less than 100℃ where the quantity processed is less than 50 times the control quantity.6. Cutting and grinding equipment areas that use high flash point materials with operating temperatures less than 100℃ where the quantity processed is less than 30 times the control quantity.7. Heat medium oil circulation equipment areas that use high flash point materials where the quantity processed is less than 30 times the control quantity.(Diagram 1)General processing place with operation procedures and process quantities that meet the following requirements, and the construction structure meet certain safety regulations shall be exempt from the preceding article 13.1.2 to 13.1.7 (an example of usage areas in general processing place are shown in Diagram 2):1. Cleaning process areas that use Class 4 public hazardous materials with flash points above 40℃ where the quantity processed is less than 10 times the control quantity.2. Quench process areas that use Class 4 public hazardous materials with flash points above 70℃ where the quantity processed is less than 10 times the control quantity.3. Boiler equipment areas that use Class 4 public hazardous materials with flash points above 40℃ where the quantity processed is less than 10 times the control quantity.4. Hydraulic equipment areas that use high flash point materials with operating temperatures less than 100℃ where the quantity processed is less than 30 times the control quantity.5. Cutting and grinding equipment areas that use high flash point materials with operating temperatures less than 100℃ where the quantity processed is less than 10 times the control quantity.(Diagram 2)The certain safety regulations referred to in the preceding paragraph are as follows:1. Located in a single floor building.2. All walls, beams, pillars, floors, and roofs shall be constructed from non-flammable materials and shall be without ceilings.3. Process equipment shall be fixed to the floor.4. Process equipment shall with reserved space not less than 3m in width surrounding it (an example reserved space is shown in Diagram 3). However, those who meet the following requirements are not subject to this restriction:(1) It is impossible to with reserved spaces of not less than 3m due to walls and pillars which are constructed from fireproof material.(2) The front wall shall not be provided with other openings except for the access point. The access point shall be provided with normally closed fire door of 1 hour and more fire rate.5. The floor and surrounding reserved spaces below process equipment shall be non-permeable, provided with a suitable inclination and a liquid collection facility. However, in buildings that are installed with leak-collecting facilities and leak-detection equipment that can alert relevant personnel to contain the leak may be exempted from installing proper inclination and liquid collection facilities.(Diagram 3)Attachment Table 1.pdfSchedule 1-1.PDFArticle 15-1 Diagram1 Diagram2 Diagram3.pdf
