Protection from
Domino/ Cascade Effects
Arranging separation distances such that damage
to adjacent plants will not occur even in the worst
case;
Provision of barriers e.g. blast walls, location in
strong buildings;
Protecting plant against damage; e.g. provision of
thicker walls on vessels;
Directing explosion relief vents away from
vulnerable areas; e.g. other plants or buildings,
roadways near site boundaries.
However, these measures may not provide practical
solutions against missiles, and risk analysis may be
required to prove adequate safety.
