These guidelines are intended to provide guidance on a specific technique developed for use in the chemical and process industries. This technique is HAZOP study - a detailed method for systematic examination of a well-defined process or operation, either planned or existing. ICI developed the HAZOP study method in the '60s and the CIA guide, published in 1977 encouraged development. Since then it has become, for many, the choice technique for hazard identification in new designs, processes and operations.

Do you have trips and safety interlocks in your plant? Are they good enough or are they perhaps over-designed and much more expensive than necessary? Are you or your company aware of how Hazard Studies should define risk reduction requirements? Are you actually using Hazard Studies at all? The answer is the integrated approach to safety management. New international standards combined with well-proven hazard study methods can improve safety management in your company. Practical Hazops, Trips and Alarms for Engineers and Technicians describes the role of hazard studies in risk management, and then proceeds with basic training in Hazop techniques. A number of practical exercises support the reference information and allow you to test your understanding of the material in the book. This book aims to bridge the discipline gap between hazard studies and the provision of safety-related alarm and trip systems. It provides training in hazard and operability methods (Hazops) and in the principles of safety instrumented systems as defined by international standard IEC 61508. Design an integrated safety management system to increase efficiency and reduce costs Learn how to carry out hazard and operability studies (Hazops) and find out how to convert Hazop outputs into safety requirements specifications Implement safety instrumented systems to the new IEC standards (IEC61508)

This unique manual is a comprehensive, easy-to-read overview of hazards analysis as it applies to the process and allied industries. The book begins by building a background in the technical definition of risk, past industrial incidents and their impacts, ensuing legislation, and the language and terms of the risk field. It addresses the different types of structured analytical techniques for conducting Process Hazards Analyses (PHA), provides a "What If" checklist, and shows how to organize and set up PHA sessions. Other topics include layout and siting considerations, Failure Modes and Effect Analysis (FMEA), human factors, loss of containment, and PHA team leadership issues.

A practical guide to identifying hazards using common hazard analysis techniques Many different hazard analysis techniques have been developed over the past forty years. However, there is only a handful of techniques that safety analysts actually apply in their daily work. Written by a former president of the System Safety Society and winner of the Boeing Achievement and Apollo Awards for his safety analysis work, Hazard Analysis Techniques for System Safety explains, in detail, how to perform the most commonly used hazard analysis techniques employed by the system safety engineering discipline. Focusing on the twenty-two most commonly used hazard analysis methodologies in the system safety discipline, author Clifton Ericson outlines the three components that comprise a hazard and describes how to use these components to recognize a hazard during analysis. He then examines each technique in sufficient detail and with numerous illustrations and examples, to enable the reader to easily understand and perform the analysis. Techniques covered include: * Preliminary Hazard List (PHL) Analysis * Preliminary Hazard Analysis (PHA) * Subsystem Hazard Analysis (SSHA) * System Hazard Analysis (SHA) * Operating and Support Hazard Analysis (O&SHA) * Health Hazard Assessment (HHA) * Safety Requirements/Criteria Analysis (SRCA) * Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) * Event Tree Analysis (ETA) * Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) * Fault Hazard Analysis * Functional Hazard Analysis * Sneak Circuit Analysis (SCA) * Petri Net Analysis (PNA) * Markov Analysis (MA) * Barrier Analysis (BA) * Bent Pin Analysis (BPA) * HAZOP Analysis * Cause Consequence Analysis (CCA) * Common Cause Failure Analysis (CCFA) * MORT Analysis * Software Safety Assessment (SWSA) Written to be accessible to readers with a minimal amount of technical background, Hazard Analysis Techniques for System Safety gathers, for the first time in one source, the techniques that safety analysts actually apply in daily practice. Both new and seasoned analysts will find this book an invaluable resource for designing and constructing safe systems-- in short, for saving lives.
