Abstract

Hazard and operability (HAZOP) analysis has a well-deserved reputation for systematic and thorough evaluation of process hazards in industrial units. The method is now widely known and is in prevalent use in the chemical processing industries; so much so that in many industries performing a HAZOP has become a legal requirement for new or modified industrial units. A number of guides exist for conducting HAZOPs, the most recent being the IChemE guidelines on finest practice
