GENERAL GAS CHLORINE DESIGN

The design of gas chlorine facilities should consider operator and public safety as well as
maintaining long-term plant reliability and operation.

Chlorination facilities shall be designed
such that chlorine gas can be contained in the chlorine storage room.

Doors and windows
should be gas-tight to minimize escape of gaseous chlorine to the exterior atmosphere or building
interior.

In general, the following can be considered to be acceptable design:

1. All chlorine cylinders shall be contained in the chlorine storage room.

Vacuum
regulators should be located on individual chlorine cylinders in service.

The use of
pressurized chlorine gas lines and manifolds is strongly discouraged and, if utilized, must
be contained in the chlorine storage room.

2.

All chlorine cylinders shall be adequately restrained.

3.

Chlorinators should be housed in a room separate from but adjacent to the chlorine
storage room.

This is to minimize the need to enter the storage room to adjust feed rates
and to minimize the potential for equipment damage caused by chlorine leaks.

A gastight shatter resistant window shall be present for viewing the storage and chlorinator
rooms from an interior wall of the plant.

4. The chlorine storage room shall only be accessible from the outside.

The exterior access
door for the chlorine storage area must open outward, being equipped with panic bar
hardware on the interior.

A small viewing window should be present in the door or
adjacent to the door in the exterior wall to allow operator examination of the room before
entry.

Loading dock doors shall also open outward and be equipped with the appropriate
moldings, gaskets, and weather stripping to minimize gas leakage to the exterior.

Inside
access to the chlorinator room shall be acceptable if chlorine gas is supplied under
vacuum.

5.

All access doors should be properly labeled with appropriate warning signs.

6.

Chlorinator room temperature should be maintained at 60 degrees Fahrenheit and
protected from excessive heat.

The chlorine storage room shall be maintained at a
temperature 5 to 10 degrees Fahrenheit cooler than the chlorinator room to minimize the
potential for re-liquification of the gas.

7.

A pressure relief valve shall be located on the chlorine vacuum line within the vacuum
regulator to prevent gas pressurization of the chlorinator.

This valve should be vented to
the chlorine storage room or to the outside if appropriate.

8.

All openings between the chlorine storage room and other parts of the building shall be
sealed such that chlorine leaks can be contained within the storage room.

9.

There shall be no exterior windows to chlorine storage rooms other than the small
viewing window at the entrance.

(This is to minimize the potential for heat build-up from
the sun and to minimize vandalism.)

10.

Scales shall be constructed of durable material to withstand the aggressive environment
and situated such that they can be easily and accurately read through a viewing window
or use of a remote readout.

This type of design will minimize the need to enter the
chlorine storage area to take readings.

11.

Separate light and ventilation switches shall be located outside of the chlorine storage
room near the entrance door and interior viewing window.

Lighting fixtures within the
chlorine storage area shall be suitable for use in an aggressive environment and, if
possible, designed to operate during a chlorine gas release.

12.

Electrical components within the chlorine storage area should be minimized.

Motors for
louvers, cylinder cranes, and ventilation equipment shall be suitable for use in an
aggressive environment.

Convenience electrical components, such as outlets, should be
avoided.

All electrical systems for the chlorine storage area shall be on dedicated
circuits.

13.

The chlorine storage room shall be equipped with ventilation equipment capable of one
complete air exchange per minute.

This equipment shall be located such that it will draw
suction near the floor as far away as practical from the entrance door and air inlet.

Exhaust shall be located away from the door and other air intakes.

Exhaust discharge
shall be located as not to contaminate other air inlets to any rooms or structures.

Air
intakes should be through louvers near the ceiling.

Louvers for intakes and exhaust shall
facilitate airtight closure.

14.

Chemical scrubbing systems should be considered for treating the exhaust from a
chlorine release where such exhaust may otherwise represent a health or environmental
hazard to the surrounding area.

15.

All ventilation and duct work within a chlorine storage room shall be separated from
domestic building ventilation systems.

All chlorine room duct work should be gas tight
and not pass through other rooms or areas of the building.

16.

Leak detectors shall be located 1 foot above the floor of the chlorine storage room and
shall activate an alarm when a chlorine leak occurs.

It is preferable that the detector be
capable of differentiating between two or more chlorine concentrations to alert personnel
of the severity of the release.

This would help determine the appropriate procedure for
entrance to the room, ventilation, or other solutions.

17.

Self contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) shall not be located within the chlorine
storage room.

It is preferable that this equipment be located in a convenient location
where personnel can easily access it in the event of an emergency.

18.

Service water to operator injectors/eductors shall be of adequate supply and pressure to
operate feed equipment within the needed chlorine dosage range for the proposed system.

All service water shall be properly protected by the appropriate cross connection control
device.

19.

Placement of injectors/eductors should be carefully evaluated.

Current system operation
and chlorination practices should also be reviewed before design.

In some cases, it may
be appropriate to locate the injector/eductor in the chlorinator room with distribution of
highly chlorinated water to the point of application.

In other situations, it may be best to
locate the eductor/injector can at the point of application with distribution of chlorine gas
through plastic tubing under vacuum to the point of application.

20.

A chlorine cylinder repair kit with leak detection bottle should be supplied within each
chlorine storage room.

21.

Floor drains should not be designed within the chlorine storage area.

22.

Combustible materials should not be stored in chlorine rooms.

23.

Fire sprinkling systems should not be installed in chlorine rooms.

24.

Chlorine room location should be on the prevailing downwind side of the building, away
from entrances, windows, louvers, walkways, etc.

25.

Ammonia storage shall be in rooms separate from the chlorine storage room.
