Process Hazard Analysis is a systematic effort designed to identify and analyze hazards associated with the processing or handling of highly hazardous materials, in which the information obtained from the analysis helps the employers and workers in improving the safety of their systems.Continue Reading

Process Hazards Analysis (PHA) is a study of process hazards that include methods like HAZOP, What-If and Checklist. Hazard and Operability Analysis (HAZOP) is a structured and systematic technique for identifying possible hazards in a work process.Continue Reading

Process Safety Information (PSI) is the basis of a Process Safety Management (PSM) program. It’s a process of data and information collection to help the Process Hazard Analysis (PHA) to identify and understand the hazards posed by those processes involving highly hazardous chemicals. PSI at least collect following information: Hazards of the highly hazardous chemicals...Continue Reading

A safety-critical function is a function that, if lost or degraded, or as a result of incorrect or inadvertent operation, can result in catastrophic or critical consequences.Continue Reading

Safety equipment to protect the user against hazards that can cause any injuries.Continue Reading

ALARP Demonstration is a process to demonstrate all prevention, control and mitigation barriers are adequate and effective in managing that risk to a level that is as low as reasonably practicable.Continue Reading

ALARP: As low as reasonably practicable. SFAIRP: so far as is reasonably practicable. Both have no difference and mean essentially the same thing, just different terminology as both aims to reduce riskContinue Reading

The ALARP principle stands for “as low as reasonably practicable”. This principle intends to keep the risk level as low as possible, with the assurance that the ALARP evaluations are thoroughly documented.Continue Reading

Non-critical safety systems, are systems that add to the safety of the installation. While it does not render the installation unsafe when a non-critical safety system is switched off, it may introduce problems if they malfunction.Continue Reading
