TL;DR: In this paper, thermal hazard analysis of benzoyl peroxide (BPO) was studied using RC1e (Reaction Calorimeter) and PHI-TEC to obtain thermal hazard coefficients.

TL;DR: In this article, 165 domino accidents of storage tank area during 1970 and 2017 were analyzed to establish theoretic models and event tree, and a propagation probability model of accident chain was constructed, which consists of initial accident probability, accident node escalation probability and target tank failure probability.

TL;DR: More specific and accurate probabilistic models of the numbers of fragments generated by Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosions (BLEVEs), Mechanical Explosions, Confined Explosions and Runaway Reactions (RRs) of a horizontal cylindrical vessel were developed using the maximum entropy principle based on historical accident data as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this article, a new boundary diagram was proposed for the autocatalytic parallel reactions for the esterification of 2-butanol and propionic anhydride with sulfuric acid (SA).

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed an integrated framework focusing on defining the governing parameters for the thermal runaway and evaluating the subsequent risk of accident in batch nuclear power plants, where a relevant set of criteria are identified in order to find the prior conditions for a thermal runaway: failure of the cooling system, critical temperature threshold, successive derivatives of the temperature vs. time and no detection in due time (reaction time) of the runaway initiation.
