Wedad H Al-Dahhan, Emad Yousif and Falah H Hussein

Nitrogen fertilizers are considered one of the most important chemical industries in the twenty-first century, due to their great use in agriculture. Increasing yields, this led to a great abundance of yield and contributed significantly to the abundance of global food. Most chemicals which are used in these factories are hazardous to health and may cause fire or explosion. The evaluation of the potential risks in these production units and the means of prevention and treatment are one of the most important axes discussed in this article. Improving safety aspects, including increasing culture and awareness, are one of the most important ways to prevent accidents.
