Description: The growth of an industry is dependent on technological advances. This is especially true in the chemical industry, which is entering an era of more complex processes: higher pressure, more reactive chemicals, and exotic chemistry. More complex processes require more complex safety technology. Many industrialists even believe that the development and application of safety technology is actually a constraint on the growth of the chemical industry.As chemical process technology becomes more complex, chemical engineers will need a more detailed and fundamental understanding of safety. H. H. Fawcett said, "To know is to survive and to ignore fundamentals is to court disaster." Since 1950, significant technological advances have been made in chemical process safety. Today, safety is equal in importance to production and has developed into a scientific discipline that includes many highly technical and complex theories and practices. Examples of the technology of safety include hydrodynamic models representing two-phase flow through a vessel relief, dispersion models representing the spread of toxic vapour through a plant after a release, and mathematical techniques to determine the various ways that processes can fail and the probability of failure. Recent advances in chemical plant safety emphasise the use of appropriate technological toolsto provide information for making safety decisions with respect to plant design and operation.This course deals with study of fundamental concepts of Safety culture, OSHA, FAR & FR. Also includes the case studies of some major incidents in chemical history. It deals with study of toxicology, Industrial hygiene and related government regulations. It covers Identification and evolution with process selection methodology. It covers the fire and explosion and related concepts in safety. Technology an
