Emergency shutdown plan for quartz sand production line

In the production process of quartz sand, the stable operation of the production line is directly related to the production efficiency, product quality and personnel safety. However, it is difficult to completely avoid emergency shutdown due to equipment failure, power interruption, abnormal materials and other factors. This emergency plan is formulated to ensure quick response and scientific disposal during emergency shutdown, minimize losses, and ensure personnel safety and equipment integrity.

1、 Classification and identification of emergency shutdown causes

There are various reasons for emergency shutdown of quartz sand production line. Common types and identification methods are as follows:

(1) Equipment failure

Crushing equipment (such as jaw crusher and cone crusher) may be shut down due to abnormal vibration, abnormal sound or material jam; Sudden rise of bearing temperature and motor overload of sand making equipment (such as impact sand machine) are also important signals for shutdown; The conveying equipment (such as belt conveyor) deviates, slips or breaks, which will directly interrupt the material conveying and cause shutdown. Operators shall always pay attention to the operating parameters of the equipment and find out the abnormality in time by listening, watching, measuring, etc.

(2) Interruption of power

Sudden power failure is a common cause of emergency shutdown of the production line, which may be caused by external power supply system failure or internal circuit problems. At this time, all equipment will stop running, and the workshop lighting may be off, which can be quickly judged by observing the equipment shutdown state and lighting condition.

(3) Material problems

Interruption of raw material supply, such as empty bin, will make the subsequent equipment have no material to process, and then shutdown; Large foreign matters or impurities with abnormal hardness mixed in materials may cause equipment blocking and shutdown. The operator shall closely monitor the material level and material transportation of the silo to find out the material abnormality in time.

(4) Safety accident

In case of equipment leakage, fire and other safety accidents, emergency shutdown is required to ensure personnel safety. In case of emergency, the operator shall immediately take shutdown measures and start corresponding safety rescue procedures.

2、 Emergency organization structure and responsibilities

(1) Emergency command group

The production plant manager serves as the group leader and is responsible for unified command of emergency disposal, formulation of emergency strategies, coordination of resources of all departments and decision making on major issues.

(2) Technical support group

Equipment engineer and technical personnel are responsible for analyzing shutdown reasons, formulating equipment maintenance plan, guiding maintenance personnel to carry out emergency repair and ensuring that equipment returns to normal as soon as possible.

(3) Site Disposal Team

The team leader and operator shall be responsible for site emergency treatment, such as cutting off power supply, stopping material supply, setting warning signs, etc., to prevent accident expansion.

(4) Logistic support group

It is composed of administrative and logistics personnel, responsible for emergency material supply, medical aid coordination and other work to ensure the smooth implementation of emergency disposal.

3、 Emergency shutdown emergency treatment process

(1) Shutdown discovery and report

When the operator finds an emergency shutdown of the production line, he/she shall immediately report to the team leader to explain the shutdown time, phenomenon and possible causes. Upon receiving the report, the team leader shall report to the leader of the emergency command group.

(2) Emergency response start

The leader of the emergency command group shall judge whether to start the emergency plan according to the situation after receiving the report. If it is started, immediately notify each emergency team to enter the working state.

(3) Disposal on site

Upon receiving the instruction, the site disposal group shall quickly arrive at the site, cut off the power supply of relevant equipment, stop the material delivery, check whether there is any personal injury or equipment damage on the site, and set warning signs to prevent irrelevant personnel from entering.

(4) Cause analysis and treatment

When the technical support group arrives at the site, it shall communicate with the operators and analyze the shutdown reasons in combination with the equipment operation records. In case of equipment failure, formulate maintenance plan and organize maintenance personnel to carry out emergency repair; If the power is interrupted, contact the power supply department to learn about the situation, check the internal circuit and prepare for power restoration; In case of material problem, clean foreign matters or supplement raw materials in time; In case of safety accident, cooperate with relevant departments for handling.

(5) Equipment recovery and test run

Upon troubleshooting, the technical support group shall check the equipment and inform the site disposal group to recover the power supply and material supply after confirmation. The operator shall carry out test run and observe the operation of the equipment. If everything is normal, report it to the team leader and the emergency command group.

(6) End of emergency

The leader of the emergency command group shall declare the end of the emergency after confirming that the production line returns to normal operation and there is no potential safety hazard, and each group returns to normal work.

4、 Preventive measures

(1) Equipment maintenance and repair

Formulate perfect equipment maintenance plan, regularly check, clean, lubricate and repair crushing equipment, sand making equipment and conveying equipment, and timely replace vulnerable parts to ensure that the equipment is in good operating condition.

(2) Power supply guarantee

Provide standby power supply (such as generator), conduct regular maintenance and test run to ensure timely power supply in case of power failure. At the same time, strengthen the internal circuit inspection to prevent the shutdown caused by circuit failure.

(3) Material management

Strengthen the purchase and inspection of raw materials to ensure that the quality of raw materials meets the requirements and avoid impurities. Establish a bin level monitoring system to timely master the bin level and prevent the interruption of raw material supply.

(4) Personnel training

The operators shall be trained regularly to improve their operation skills and emergency handling capacity, so that they can accurately judge the abnormal conditions of the equipment and master the emergency shutdown operation process.

(5) Regular drill

Organize emergency shutdown drill regularly, inspect the feasibility of emergency plan and the cooperation ability of each group, and timely modify and perfect the plan in case of any problem.

5、 Notes to note

During emergency shutdown, the operator shall keep calm and operate according to the operating procedures to avoid secondary accidents caused by improper operation.

The maintenance personnel must cut off the power supply when carrying out rush repair, and set the sign of "Maintenance in progress, no closing" at the power switch to prevent misoperation.

In the process of emergency disposal, each group shall closely cooperate and obey the command to ensure that the emergency work is carried out in an orderly manner.

Upon the end of the emergency, the emergency shutdown situation shall be timely summarized and analyzed to find out the reasons and formulate improvement measures to prevent similar situations from happening again.

The emergency plan shall be reviewed and revised regularly according to the actual situation of the production line and the change of the external environment to ensure its applicability and effectiveness.
