    Diammonium phosphate (DAP) is produced by mixing phosphoric acid and ammonia in a reactor. If too little of either reactant is used, the reaction will be incomplete and hazardous gases may form. The project team was tasked with investigating hazards from the phosphoric acid delivery line to the reactor. Their Hazard and Operability Study identified several failure modes including no flow, less flow, more flow, or the wrong material flowing in the line, any of which could result in excess reactants and toxic releases requiring automatic valve closures or procedural checks to prevent.

    Diammonium Phosphate (DAP) Production

    Phosphoric acid and ammonia are mixed, and a non-hazardous product, diammonium phosphate
    (DAP), results if the reaction of ammonia is complete (see Fig. 3). If too little phosphoric
    acid is added, the reaction is incomplete, and ammonia is produced. Too little ammonia
    available to the reactor results in a safe but undesirable product.

    ASSESSMENT (HAZID)
    Both chemicals will be used in large quantities and in concentrated form. Due to the highly
    corrosive nature of both chemicals, the project team was assigned to investigate the hazards
    posed to staff from the reaction resulting from study line 1 (phosphoric acid delivery line).
