Our staff teamed up with an environmental consulting organization to review and critique the client’s risk management plan for their expanded facility. The ioMosaic team was comprised of several process safety engineers who routinely apply current state-of the-science risk management tools. During the on-site safety review, the team identified existing safeguards, equipment design, and gathered information on the profile of the chemical processes that occurred in the facility. A portion of the on-site review included a general assessment of the administrative controls and management systems to ensure those were applied as safeguards when assessing mitigation. Below is a list of the typical information reviewed while on-site:
Process Safety Office® PSMPro™, our all-in-one PHA, DHA, audit, and fault tree software, simplifies the recording of findings and tracking follow-up. The potential consequences were calculated using our state-of-the-art consequence hazard modeling software, Process Safety Office® SuperChems®. This software combines expertise in chemical hazard characteristics, advanced numerical computations, and process safety analysis with rigorous models for source terms, dispersion, fires, and explosions. These models have been validated both qualitatively and statistically using large-scale experimental and prior incident data.
