Abstract

Here, we report a software for logging chemical processes in a multi-user laboratory, which implements a work flow designed to reduce hazardous situations associated with the disposal of chemicals in incompatible waste containers. The software allows users to perform only those processes displayed in their list of authorized chemical processes and provides the location and label code of waste containers, among other useful information. The software has been used for six years in the cleanroom of the Center for Functional Nanomaterials at Brookhaven National Laboratory and has been an important factor for the excellent safety record of the Center.

Records Management in the Formerly Used Sites Remedial Action Program (FUSRAP)

Conference Morekas, G N ; Pape, M B

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' (USACE's) performance of site investigation and remediation under the Formerly Used Sites Remedial Action Program (FUSRAP) requires the use of a records management system in order to effectively capture and manage data, document the decision making process, and allow communication of project information to regulators, congress, and the public. The USACE faces many challenges in managing the vast amount of data, correspondence, and reports generated under this program, including: management of data and reports in a variety of paper, electronic, and microfilm formats; incorporation of records generated by the Department of Energy (DOE) priormore »« less
CHAWS (Chemical HAzard Warning System) message center users guide: System description and operating procedures, Pine Bluff Arsenal

Technical Report Martins, S

The Chemical HAzard Warning System (CHAWS) has been installed at Pine Bluff Arsenal to collect meteorological data and to display, in near-real time, hazardous chemical dispersion as a result of an accidental release. The CHAWS central computer is located in the Operations Center (OC). In order to facilitate communications of meteorological data and emergency information, the Pine Bluff Message Center system was developed by the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory as an adjunct to CHAWS. The system is comprised of a number of separate but interrelated computers, software, and peripheral devices. Many local and remote users access information in the messagemore »« less
A ''Toolbox''21 Equivalent Process for Safety Analysis Software

Conference O'KULA, KR

Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board (DNFSB) Recommendation 2002-1 (Quality Assurance for Safety-Related Software) identified a number of quality assurance issues on the use of software in Department of Energy (DOE) facilities for analyzing hazards, and designing and operating controls that prevent or mitigate potential accidents. The development and maintenance of a collection, or ''toolbox,'' of multiple-site use, standard solution, Software Quality Assurance (SQA)-compliant safety software is one of the major improvements identified in the associated DOE Implementation Plan (IP). The DOE safety analysis toolbox will contain a set of appropriately quality-assured, configuration-controlled, safety analysis codes, recognized for DOE-broad, safety basismore »« less

Chemical laboratory hazardous waste management at a DOE multiprogram national laboratory

Conference Turner, P. J.

Pacific Northwest Laboratory (PNL), a United States Department of Energy (DOE) Multiprogram Energy Laboratory, is establishing a program for management of diverse small-quantity laboratory waste generated on site. Although the main emphasis of this program is cradle-to-grave'' tracking and treatment of hazardous chemical waste and mixed waste, low-level radioactive and transuranic (TRU) waste is also being included. With the program in operation, more than 95% of all regulated waste will be treated or destroyed on site. The cost savings will return the original investment in under six years and decrease the liability to PNL and DOE -- a benefit withmore »« less

Development of fuel oil management system software: Phase 1, Tank management module

Technical Report Lange, H B ; Baker, J P ; Allen, D

The Fuel Oil Management System (FOMS) is a micro-computer based software system being developed to assist electric utilities that use residual fuel oils with oil purchase and end-use decisions. The Tank Management Module (TMM) is the first FOMS module to be produced. TMM enables the user to follow the mixing status of oils contained in a number of oil storage tanks. The software contains a computational model of residual fuel oil mixing which addresses mixing that occurs as one oil is added to another in a storage tank and also purposeful mixing of the tank by propellers, recirculation or convection.Themore »« less
