P-8.7: Safe Location of Oxygen and Inert Gas Vents

This publication applies to air separation and cryogenic liquefaction plants in which the venting of oxygen, nitrogen, oxygen/nitrogen mixtures, argon, or air occurs.

Disposal of cryogenic liquid is not covered in this publication although the potential for vent releases to have some liquid present is included (see 5.5).

The recommendations contained in this publication for elevations and horizontal separation distances are not applicable to customer station tanks. Safety distances for such tanks are governed by the design criteria for plant layout or national regulations/codes of practice, whichever are more stringent.
