This book was released on 2011-12-28 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book helps advance process safety in a key area of interest. Currently, no literature exists which is solely dedicated to process safety for the bioprocessing industry. There are texts, guidelines, and standards on biosafety at the laboratory level and for industrial hygiene, but no guidelines for large-scale production facilities. In fact, biosafety is largely defined as a field that promotes safe laboratory practices, procedures and use of containment equipment and facilities. Additionally, biomedical engineers, biologists, or other professionals without chemical engineering training or knowledge of inherently safe design are designing many of these facilities.

Download or read book Guidelines for Safe Process Operations and Maintenance written by CCPS (Center for Chemical Process Safety) and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-09-14 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First-line managers have to maintain the integrity of facilities, control manufacturing processes, and handle unusual or emergency situations, as well as respond to the pressures of production demand. On a daily basis, they are closest to the operating personnel who may be injured by a process accident, and they are in the best position to spot problem conditions and to act to contain them. This book offers these managers "how-to" information on process safety management program execution in the operations and maintenance departments, recommending technical and administrative process safety activities for the entire life cycle of the plant. Helpful tables and references add to the value of this process safety resource.
Download or read book Guidelines for Integrating Process Safety Management Environment Safety Health and Quality written by CCPS (Center for Chemical Process Safety) and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-09-07 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the years, companies have developed independent systems for managing process safety, environment, health, safety, and quality. Many aspects of these management systems are similar. Integrating EHS management systems can yield economies and improved system effectiveness. This book explains how integration reduces cost of delivery through a reduction in the number of management program steps and avoidance of redundancy; how it results in more effective programs, since the best practices can be combined into a single process; and how this integration brings a faster, and more cost effective response to new demands.

Download or read book Guidelines for Process Safety in Batch Reaction Systems written by CCPS (Center for Chemical Process Safety) and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-08-31 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Batch reaction systems pose unique challenges to process safety managers because they do not operate in a steady state. The sequence of processing steps, and frequent start-ups and shutdowns, increase the possibility of human errors and equipment failures. And, since batch plants are often designed for shared use, frequent modification of piping and layout may occur, resulting in complex "management of change" issues. This book identifies the singular concerns of batch reaction systems—including potential sources of unsafe conditions—and provides a "how-to" guide for the practicing engineer in dealing with them by applying appropriate practices to prevent accidents.
