Foam Making Branches (FMB)    Today we will discuss,what is (FMB)  Foam Making Branches . Foam Making Branches are basically used by fire fighters. Foam Making Branches What is (FMB) Foam Making Branches ?    Foam-making branches provide a means for the production of mechanical foam, which is used to  Fire-fighting in flammable liquids. Foam Making Branches    Similarly, mechanical foam is also used to cover flammable liquid spills to prevent ignition.  These branches operate on the  self-aspirating principle in which air is driven into a stream of water-foam solution by the suction effect created at the head of the water in the branch during the discharge of the solution under pressure.

INTRODUCTION OF HAZOP: HAZOP is an analysis method that was developed for use with new processes JO the chemical industry. Its strength is that it's hello problems to be identified even before a body of experience has been developed for a given process/system.

HAZOP consist of farming 18 of experience knowledgeable people from a variety of background relating to the process/system. The team members brainstorm about potential hazards. The health and safety professional should chair the team and serve as a facilitator. The chairman role is to draw out and record the ideas of team members; make sure that one member does not dominate for intermediate other members; Anchorage maximum participations from all members; assist members in combining ideas where appropriate to form better ideas.
