Introduction
Flammable liquids often used as fuels, solvents and cleaning agents etc., are
commonly found in workplaces, public venues and homes. It is important for everyone
who works with these liquids to be aware of their hazards and safe storage methods.
The Singapore Standard (SS) on the Storage of Flammable Liquids, or SS 532 : 2007
is a revision of SS CP 40 : 1987 Storage of Flammable and Combustible Liquids. It is
developed by the Technical Committee on Petroleum and its Products, under the
purview of the Chemical Standards Committee.
This standard sets out the
requirements and recommendations for the safe storage and handling of flammable
liquids.
SS 532 : 2007 includes best practices, such as the Guidelines on storage of
flammable and combustible liquids in aboveground atmospheric storage tanks by the
Oil and Petrochemical Industry Technical & Safety Committee (OPITSC) and the
Singapore Civil Defence Force. It is aligned with the requirements of current
regulatory authorities and emergency response services, environmental requirements,
various Singapore Standards as well as the United Nations guidelines on the Globally
harmonised system of classification and labelling of chemicals (GHS). SS 532 also
makes references to the relevant overseas standards.
Some key changes in the standard include the concept of minor storage,
requirements for separation of safety cabinets, details of water supply demand and a
re-classification of flammable liquids in accordance to the GHS requirements. This
standard is adopted by the Fire Safety & Shelter Department (FSSD).
