minimum value for damage (e.g. IDLH, over pressure, radiation flux)
to assess the impact on environment.
Risk Quantification: Quantitative techniques are used considering
effect/impact due to weather data, population data, and frequency of
occurrences and likely hood of ignition/toxic release. Data are
analyzed considering likely damage (in terms of injury/fatality,
property damage) each scenarios is likely to cause.
QRA provides a means to determine the relative significance of a number
of undesired events, allowing analyst and the team to focus their risk
reduction efforts where they will be beneficial most. The QRA for this
plant is based on Level 1 and Level 2. Table 2.2 in Chapter 2 gives the
list of products (and their monthly production capacity) to be
manufactured. Table below gives the bulk storages of liquid and gaseous
raw materials and their consumption.
7.3 HAZARDOUS MATERIALS STORAGE
The solid raw materials will be received in bags or drums and will be
stored in chemicals godowns. The products will be packed in bags or
drums and stored in product godowns as per market demand. The bulk
storages of liquid hazardous materials are given in the Table 7.1 below.
In addition unit will store fuels mainly Coal for boiler, thermic fluid
heater, and hot air generator and HSD (in limited quantity) for D.G. Set
(during power failure only). The solid material powder or granules spillage
can results in polluting small area only. The damage to personnel can be
through ingress- dermal (if individual come in contact), oral (if individual
food gets infected through fugitive dust) or inhalation (fugitive dust). The
main route is fugitive dust which in covered area will move to short

distance only. The risk is through liquid products which are volatile
material. The toxic vapours due to spillage of such material can travel to
some distance (as they are stored in covered godowns) and cause
damage.

7.4 RISK SCREENING APPROACH
Risk screening of Choksi Colours Private Limited was undertaken through
process study and study of data/information provided by the unit. Data of
major/bulk storages of raw materials, intermediates and other chemicals
were collected. MSDS of hazardous chemicals were studied vis a vis their
inventories and mode of storage. The chemicals stored in bulk and
defined under MSHIC Rule will be considered for detailed analysis. None
of the products are covered under MSIHC Rules. Raw materials under
hazardous category as specified by MSIHC Rules, 1989 (including
subsequent amendments) are as below,

7.4.1 Acute Exposure Guideline Levels (AEGLs)
AEGLs estimate the concentrations at which most people—including
sensitive individuals such as old, sick, or very young people—will begin to
experience health effects if they are exposed to a hazardous chemical for
a specific length of time (duration). For a given exposure duration, a
chemical may have up to three AEGL values, each of which corresponds
to a specific tier of health effects. AEGLs of the materials are as below.

Special Remarks on Chronic Effects on Humans:Causes adverse reproductive effects in humans (fetotoxicity, abortion, ) by intraplacental route. High intake of sodium chloride,whether from occupational exposure or in the diet, may increase risk of TOXEMIA OF PREGNANCY in susceptible women(Bishop, 1978). Hypertonic sodium chloride solutions have been used to induce abortion in late pregnancy by direct infusioninto the uterus (Brown et al, 1972), but this route of administration is not relevant to occupational exposures. May causeadverse reproductive effects and birth defects in animals, particularly rats and mice (fetotoxicity, abortion, musculoskeletalabnormalities, and maternal effects (effects on ovaries, fallopian tubes) by oral, intraperitoneal, intraplacental, intrauterine,parenteral, and subcutaneous routes. While sodium chloride has been used as a negative control n some reproductivestudies, it has also been used as an example that almost any chemical can cause birth defects in experimental animalsif studied under the right conditions (Nishimura & Miyamoto, 1969). In experimental animals, sodium chloride has causeddelayed effects on newborns, has been fetotoxic, and has caused birth defects and abortions in rats and mice (RTECS, 1997).May affect genetic material (mutagenic)
Special Remarks on other Toxic Effects on Humans:Acute Potential Health Effects: Skin: May cause skin irritation. Eyes: Causes eye irritation.
