ACETYLENE VS LPG / PROPANE

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ACETYLENE VS LPG / PROPANE AS A CUTTING OR HEATING FUEL GAS Ever so often, the question comes up if one can use Propane instead of Acetylene. Learn the difference between the two, and how to prevent accidents. Which gas really Cuts better? Let’s go on and discuss some advantages and disadvantages of our contenders… ACETYLENE Advantages: • Acetylene produces the hottest flame temperature for oxy fuel cutting and welding • The hotter temperature creates a quicker piercing of materials • Oxy acetylene can be used on sites with no power supply • It is quite a versatile process and can be used to weld most metals. Disadvantages: • Acetylene weld lines are rougher in appearance and need more finishing • Acetylene is unstable and expensive • There are more safety issues with oxy acetylene, because there is a naked flame. PROPANE Advantages: • Propane has greater total heat combustion • Oxy propane is easy to obtain and cheaper • Propane...

Evaluation of HSE culture

✍ Evaluation of the HSE culture ladder The best way to understand the HSE culture of the company / organization is to use the culture ladder. Each stage has a number of unique features and is along its previous level. This ladder is like a map of the way that tells us where our organization will be where the HSE culture will be and when will it be next. The five steps of this ladder are: Pathologic.          Pathogenic Reactive.              Passive Calculative           Calculative Proactive.             Preventive Generative            Creative  ✅ pathologic: At this level, people are neglected for hygiene - safety and the environment, only comply with the rules and do not properly understand the HSE.  ✅ reactive (passive) At this level, the HSE is only taken seriously when an incident has occurred.
