Industrial cluster

After processing, the components are usually sold to the industrial clusters which recycle these components. The existing markets for the various components are the following ...

The impact of the occupational safety control programs on the overall safety level in an industrial cluster... 

The model provides a set of indicators in order to represent dynamically the activities that have the potential to reduce the probability of accident inside the area. It enables competent authorities to optimize inspection scheduling and planning activities in an homogeneous industrial cluster. The heuristic procedure is based on priority index (PI) evaluated for each establishment (or imit), taking into accoimt evaluation of inherent hazards, of safety conditions and previous accidents. 

To develop a theoretical framework 2. To explore and map the design space broadly 3. To bound the design space 4. To quantify the design space 5. To design a viable methanol-based industrial cluster 6. To design a viable transition process Literature survey Functional modeling Interviews and literature survey Virtual Prototype Workshop with relevant actors Workshop with relevant actors... 

We then turned these interview results into a quantitative model, the Virtual Prototype, describing our design space of alternative methanol-based clusters and allowing users to modify the cluster and get an impression of the viability of alternative cluster designs. Finally, we will use the Virtual Prototype in a workshop with relevant actors as a means to further the transition process. The intended results of the workshop are a well thought out methanol-based industrial cluster in the Rotterdam port area, and the start of a platform or community of actors who need and want to get involved in developing such cluster. 

There have been extensive consultations in the Industry Cluster on the methodology for selecting OCPF sites however, no decision has yet been taken with respect to subparagraph 11(c) of Part IX of the Verification Annex, which covers proposals from States Parties on the process of selecting OCPF plant sites. Consultations on this issue are expected to continue, but the resolution is overdue and should be addressed by the Second Review Conference. 

The Second Review Conference recalled the decision taken by the Council at its Twenty-Sixth Meeting to undertake discussions, under the industry cluster, in 2007, with the assistance of relevant experts of the Secretariat and States Parties, on the main issues related to the implementation of the verification regime established by Article VI of the Convention, including, inter alia, the frequency of inspections of the different categories of the facilities to be inspected as required by the Convention. The Second Review Conference urged States Parties to continue their ongoing discussions concerning the question of frequency of inspections of all plant sites.

Advantages of Co-locating Biorefinery Operations at an Industrial Cluster Site... 

Another advantage of integration into an industrial cluster is that the existing infrastructure (boilers, utility systems, air separation plant, etc.) is already in place. Compared to a stand-alone biorefmery unit, this can have positive impact on process economics since, for example, parts of the infrastructure for electricity, steam, waste water, safety, etc. can be shared (Kimm, 2008).
