Management of Hazardous Operations in Lime Production
Lime production involves high-temperature kilns, dusty environments, mechanical equipment, and the use of chemicals, making it a high-risk industry. The operating temperature of the kiln is extremely high, which can easily cause burns or fires; The crushing and calcination of limestone generate a large amount of dust, which poses a risk of explosion and silicosis; In addition, equipment maintenance, confined space operations, and heat release and corrosion during lime digestion all pose significant safety hazards.
Strengthening the management of hazardous operations is the core of ensuring safety. A strict work permit system must be established to approve and supervise high-risk activities such as hot work, entering confined spaces, and working at heights on site. Operators need to receive professional training and be proficient in operating procedures and emergency skills. The site should be equipped with complete personal protective equipment and ensure the effective operation of safety facilities such as ventilation, dust removal, and alarm.
Regularly conduct risk identification and hidden danger investigation, and dynamically evaluate the danger of various work processes. By combining technical prevention and behavior management, a systematic security system can be established to effectively control risks and achieve intrinsic safety in lime production.
