Abstract

The present study was conducted with the aim of assessing the health, safety and environmental risks of the Najafabad University Laboratory through the FMEA method. To achieve the goal, the risk factors at the University of Najafabad University were evaluated and analyzed using the FMEA methodology. Estimation of risk factors was carried out by collecting information from a working group of ten experts and experts from Islamic Azad University of Najafabad, which included professors and laboratory officials. According to the results, iodoform and benzyol acetone synthesis were identified as the most hazardous activities in terms of harmful effects on health and health. Qualitative analysis of some anions in the second place and elemental analysis were in the third place. Qualitative analysis of some of the anions was identified as the most important safety hazard. Then, the synthesis of diphenazole acetone in the second place and pregangrometry as the third most dangerous risk in this category were known. Then, adipic acid synthesis in the second place and decomposition of cations of group V in third place were considered as the most important risks in terms of environmental hazards after methyl salicylate synthesis.
