Análisis preliminar de riesgo de los procesos realizados en la empresa More Química de Colombia S.A.S En el marco del decreto 2157 del 2017.

Abstract

Within the framework of the decree 2157 of 2017, it is established that all public or private companies must carry out a risk management plan covering different areas, since any activity inherently involves the occurrence of risks. Likewise, these companies must comply with the current regulatory framework NTC 31000 [1], that contains and exposes all the principles and guidelines for risk assessment. In this document, a hazard and operability analysis (HAZOP) was carried out to the fertilizers and pesticides productive processes, as well as to the packaging process that take place in the maquiladora company of agrochemicals and veterinary products MORE S.A.S, located in Soacha, Cundinamarca. The followed procedure consisted of making hypothetical deviations to variables of key sections of the process (called nodes) to analyze the possible causes and consequences derived from them as well as the corrective measures that could prevent them. In order to achieve the above mentioned, a description of the processes was made by means of block diagrams, P&ID, as well as the specification of the substances and equipment involved. The obtained results, the suggested corrective actions mainly, represent an important source in the prevention of the risks that could occur in the operations carried out in the studied company. Furthermore, they can serve as a safety management plan, since they give indications regarding the way in which the plant should be operated by controlling certain variables that may generate a potential danger. Additionally, this document can serve as a tool to facilitate the company the compliance with the regulatory framework. However, it is up to the company to judge and analyze the economic, logistical and productive viability of implementing them within its facilities.
