Overview

In Hong Kong (population 7 million), Potentially Hazardous Installations (PHIs), which store a specified threshold quantity of dangerous goods/hazardous materials, may pose risks to people and assets in the vicinity of the installations.

In this webinar, the methodology of hazard assessment or risk assessment will be presented and some examples will be demonstrated for the PHIs. The land use planning standards and guidelines for the PHIs will also be introduced. We hope this webinar will increase the awareness of process safety by sharing the lesson learnt.
