INSPECTION OF COMPRESSED GAS CYLINDERS


INSPECTION OF COMPRESSED GAS CYLINDERS

 The following things need to be checked before allowing any compressed gas cylinders inside an industry.
  • Check whether nozzle cap available on the cylinder.
  • Check the bottom of the cylinder & reject the cylinder if any corrosion found on the cylinder/any damages found.
  • Check for any dent/crack/fire marks on the body of the cylinder.
  • Check for any unauthorized modifications made on the cylinder.
  • Look for the next date of hydrostatic testing which is normally marked on the metal ring inserted between the valve and the neck of the cylinder and if the date of testing is on due don't allow the cylinder inside.

    • Gas cylinder is coded as per the colour coding requirement.
    • Check the cylinder has been labelled with the name of the gas and the name and address of the person by whom the cylinder was filled with gas.
    • Additionally consider any local legal requirements if required like Placing “A warning in the following terms shall be attached to every cylinder containing permanent or liquefiable gas, namely: -
                                  “WARNING”
    (i)              Do not change the colour of this cylinder.
    (ii)            This cylinder should not be filled with any gas other than the one it now contains.
    (iii)          No flammable material should be stored in the close vicinity of this cylinder or in the same room in which it is kept”.

How calcuate the CO2 reduction after implemenation of/planning to implement a Fuel conservation projects

How calcuate the COreduction after implemenation of /planning to implement fuel conservation project.

  • Type of Fuel used:  Diesel/Electircity
  • Approximate consumption of fuel(Diesel) for running the device/day : 600 litre/day
  • Now after implementation of this project the device will run for 14 days instead of running the device for 26 days and the approximate CO2 reduction will be 1584 kg/day.
The calculations are as follows for Diesel:

·        1 litre of diesel weighs 835 grams.

·        Diesel consist for 86.2% of carbon, or 720 grams of carbon per litre diesel. In order to combust this carbon to CO2, 1920 grams of oxygen is needed.

·        The sum is then 720 + 1920 = 2640 grams of CO2/litre diesel.

·        An average consumption of 600 litre/day corresponds to 600 litre/day*2640 grams of CO2/litre   = 2640*600/1000 = 1584 kg/day
The calculations are as follows for Electricity are as follows:

Assumption : the electricity consumption for the device will be 450 Units/day (if we did = 450/24 units/hr  = 18.75 units/hr)

Amount of CO2 generation is 973 grams/KWH ( average data taken for generating the power from coal power plant), so approximately we can eliminate the generation of 18.75*973/1000

= 18.24 kg/hr  = 450 kg/day
