Credit:  3 PDH  
Course Fee:  $86.85    

Steven G. Liescheidt, P.E., CSI-CCS, CCPR.

Overview

Fires in industrial and nuclear facilities have been caused by a variety of energy sources, including electrical energy and spontaneous combustion of pyrophoric metals. While fixed fire suppression systems or operator intervention have limited the size and consequences of most of these fires, some did propagate and cause significant damage and material release.

In this course the student will learn about fire prevention and protection of the confinement ventilation systems in industrial and Government facilities, such as energy production reactors, fuel processing and reprocessing facilities, research establishments, special applications facilities, waste processing plants, and storage and salvage sites.

The student is expected to read and review the material contained in the DOE Handbook Nuclear Air Cleaning Handbook, DOE HDBK-1169-2003 Chapter 10 Fire Protection

The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of twenty (20) questions at the end of this course to obtain PDH credits.
