Abstract
As a result of the study, the analysis of occurrence of fire hazardous situation during the operation of rectification column of production facility of one of the city’s enterprises was carried out. This installation refers to facilities for which additional safety requirements are imposed. The main danger of the operation of rectification columns and their piping used at the installation is thefear of depressurization and theinitiation of gas contamination and fire situation on the site. As theresult of the fire, the rectification column and supporting metal structures can be in flame or be under the influence of thermal radiation from the flame in adjacent column, which can lead to the collapse of structures or to losses of bearing capacity under the influence of high temperatures. Depending on the height of the column, the water supply system can have different ways of distributing water: at small height of the column, manual water nozzles are used with the use of fire hydrants; at considerable height of the columns, stationary water irrigation systems (irrigation rings) are used.
