Definition of HAZOP:Definition of HAZOP:
• An analysis of the hazards which could occur
at step in the process, and a description and implementation of the measures to be taken for their control.
• Invented by the BCI "British chemical industry" in the United Kingdom.
• Officially adopted in 1974 after flixborough explosion.
• This chemical plant explosion killed twenty eight people and injured scores of others:
• the public living nearby
• Lack of a systematic review of the qualified personnel. 29-May-2008
31
Benefits of using HAZOP techniques:Benefits of using HAZOP techniques:
• easy to learn.
• can be easily adapted to almost all industrial operations
• No special level of academic qualification is required.
• The HAZOP Study is an opportunity to correct these before such changes become too expensive, or 'impossible' to accomplish.
• HAZOP methodology is perhaps the most widely used aid to loss prevention.

Introduction to equipments cost Introduction to equipments cost
Cost Estimation:Cost estimation models are mathematical algorithms or parametric equations used to determine the costs of plant.
The results of the models are typically necessary to measure approval to proceed, and are factored into business plans, budgets, and other financial planning and tracking mechanisms.
