Study Notes
Hazard and Operability Study (HAZOP)
- Uses a systematic guide-word approach to provoke thoughts and identify potential deviations, such as "No," "More," "Less," "As well as," "Part of," etc.
Deviation Identification
- Analyze the process or system systematically to identify potential deviations from intended design parameters
Consequence Analysis
- Analyze each identified deviation to determine the potential consequences it may have on: • Safety • Operability • Performance
- Includes identifying the process or system to be studied, relevant documents and information to review, and the session schedule
Major Accident
- Refers to a large accident in a chemical plant, such as: • Major emission • Fire • Explosion
- Results in serious danger to human health and/or the environment, immediate or delayed, inside or outside the establishment, involving one or more dangerous substances
