The Role of HAZOP Studies in Running Chemical Plants Safely
HAZOP studies are not a one-time event. As plants age or undergo modifications, operational safety hazards can shift. Conducting a periodic HAZOP study during running of the plant is mandatory for continuous safety compliance.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do operating plants need a new HAZOP?
Modifications, equipment wear, and changes in feedstock can introduce new risks not covered in the original design phase.
How often should an operational HAZOP be conducted?
