Avaliação das condições de proteção e segurança em ambiente com caldeira

Abstract

Boilers are equipment whose main purpose is to produce steam and, for this reason, they are essential for various industrial activities. Such equipment is operated under conditions of high temperature and pressure, and therefore, when in operation, they are associated with high risks. In this context, protection and safety measures are essential in environments that have boilers, making it necessary to implement such preventive and protective measures in order to avoid accidents. In this work, a checklist and a risk map were proposed for a small industry. The purpose of the checklist is to assess the environment known as the boiler house and the safety measures, inspection and installation of the equipment. The risk map was prepared in order to inform in each sector, mainly in the boiler, the main risks in the environment. An internal audit was carried out using the proposed checklist and an action plan with corrective actions was presented in order to correct the non-conformities found. The documents presented in this work have the purpose of maintaining the environment in improvement and in constant compliance with the requirements demanded by the regulatory standards NR-13 (Boilers, pressure vessels, pipes and metallic storage tanks) and NR-5 (Internal Commission for Prevention) AccidentsCIPA).
