Book excerpt: The tragic incident at Bhopal, India made it clear that safetyreviews for identification and control of accidents involving toxicchemicals must be more systematic. This guide shows how tointegrate hazard identification, risk assessment, consequenceanalysis, and risk mitigation into a formalized program forhandling hazardous chemicals. Most of the 21 contributors aresenior staff members at Stone & Webster EngineeringCorporation. They discuss how to perform and supervise safetystudies for chemical, petrochemical, petroleum refining, and otherfacilities. They discuss all aspects of detection, prevention, andmitigation of risks associated with processing, handling, andproduction of hazardous chemicals. Special attention is given tohazard identification and hazard assessment techniques ranging fromsimple screening checklists to highly structured Hazard andOperability (HAZOP) analysis. You're shown how to calculatepotential consequences of identified hazards, quantify thelikelihood of these events, and combine equipment failure rate dataand human reliability analysis with hazard assessment. You'll alsobenefit from the book's rundowns of how to * apply expert systems and artificial intelligence in riskmanagement * instill safety-oriented operating and maintenanceprocedures * train operators and emergency response personnel * conduct internal and external safety audits * perform chemical dispersion, explosion, and fire analyses * assess health effects from chemical releases * use insurance vehicles to deal with residual risk. Risk Assessment and Risk Management for the Chemical ProcessIndustry is an essential source on minimizing the dangers of toxicincidents and accidents. It is essential reading for safetyengineers, regulatory managers, environmental engineers, and otherprofessionals responsible for safety in chemical plants.

Book excerpt: Handbook for Process Safety in Laboratories and Pilot Plants Effectively manage physical and chemical risks in your laboratory or pilot plant In Handbook for Process Safety in Laboratories and Pilot Plants: A Risk-based Approach, the Center for Chemical Process Safety delivers a comprehensive and authoritative presentation of process safety procedures and methods for use in laboratories and pilot plants (LAPPs). Of the four broad hazard categories — chemical, physical, biological, and ionizing radiation — this book focuses on the two most common: chemical and physical hazards. It addresses the storage and handling of the hazardous materials associated with activities commonly performed in LAPPs and presents many of the physical and chemical analytical techniques used to verify and validate the efficacy of safety management systems. This book will present tools and techniques for effectively managing the risks in any laboratory or pilot plant using engineered and administrative controls, as well as the CCPS Risk Based Process Safety (RBPS) Management Systems. Readers will also find: A thorough introduction to process safety Comprehensive explorations of understanding hazards and risks, as well as managing risk with engineered controls, administrative controls, and RBPS Management Systems Practical discussions of how to learn from the experiences of your own LAPP and others Detailed case reports and examples, as well as practical tools, control banding strategies, and glass equipment design Perfect for any LAPP staff member working with or managing hazardous materials, Handbook for Process Safety in Laboratories and Pilot Plants: A Risk-based Approach will also benefit LAPP engineering and scientific professionals, LAPP technical support staff, and LAPP managers. The Center for Chemical Process Safety is a world leader in developing and distributing information on process safety management and technology. Since 1985, CCPS has published over 100 books in its process safety guidelines and concept series, 33 training modules as part of its Safety in Chemical Engineering Education series, and over 220 online offerings.
