| Summary: | DESPITE BEING AN ATTRACTIVE PROPOSITION IN TERMS OF SAFETY AND COST PERFORMANCE, THE ACTUAL IMPLEMENTATION OF INHERENT SAFETY IN DESIGN IS NOT WIDELY OBSERVED IN THE INDUSTRIES. THIS HAS BEEN DOCUMENTED IN PUBLICATIONS WHICH INDICATED THE LACK OF AN EFFECTIVE INHERENT SAFETY QUANTIFICATION METHODOLOGY AND THE LACK OF INTEGRATION BETWEEN PROCESS DESIGN STAGES WITH RISK AND CONSEQUENCE ESTIMATION ARE HURDLES TO DESIGNING INHERENTLY SAFER PROCESS PLANTS.
THE CASE STUDIES PRESENTED TOWARDS THE END OF THIS RESEARCH CLEARLY DEMONSTRATED THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE ISIF TO QUANTITY LEVEL OF INHERENT SAFETY AT PROCESS ROUTE ELECTION LEVEL USING PRI AND USING TO PRIORITIZE STREAMS FOR MODIFICATION PURPOSES. BASED ON THE PRI, AN INHERENTLY SAFER ROUTE CAN BE CHOSEN AND MODIFICATION BASED ON THE PRINCIPLES OF INHERENT SAFETY CAN BE IMPLEMENTED AT THE STREAMS SCORING HIGHER PSO NUMBERS. THE IRA COMPLEMENTS THE WORK BY REPRESENTING THE LEVEL OF RISK INHERENT TO THE PROCESS BEING CONSIDERED IN COMPARISON TO THE LIMITS SET BY LOCAL AUTHORITIES. |
