Optimal firefighting to prevent domino effects: Methodologies based on dynamic influence diagram and mathematical programming

Author

  • Khakzad, Nima

Abstract

Fire is one of the most costly accidents in process plants due to the inflicted damage and the required firefighting resources. If the firefighting resources are sufficient, firefighting will include the suppression and cooling of all the burning units and exposed units, respectively. However, when the resources are inadequate, optimal firefighting strategies to answer “which burning units to suppress first and which exposed units to cool first?†would be essential to delay the fire spread until more resources become available.
