A potential hazard can happen because of a technical and personal failures, natural disasters, terrorist attacks, and fires. The potential hazards can be dangerous for human health and environment, also cause economic losses. In an industrial plant, prevention and control of these consequences have an importancy. Hazard and Operability Analysis (HAZOP) is a technique for a system evaluation and determination of risk management of hazards. In particular, HAZOP is used in order to determine potential hazards in a system and operability problems. Moreover, Areal Location of Hazardous Atmosphere (ALOHA) is the potential hazard modelling programme, which is used to plan chemical emergencies. Acetone, a colorless liquid also known as propanone, is a solvent used in manufacture of plastics and other industrial products. The most hazardous property of acetone is its flammability. Acetone is a solvent widely used in the chemical industries and stored in large volumes, therefore, acetone is an important source of danger for chemical processes. In this study, acetone was investigated to be a hazardous chemical using HAZOP and ALOHA software in order to prevent and control a big hazardous event in an industrial plant.
