Expert System for the Design of Inherently Safer Processes. 2. Flowsheet Development Stage

Abstract

In part 1 of this series, we proposed a systematic methodology for inherent safety analysis during the process route selection stage. In this part, we present the methodology for inherent safety analysis during the flowsheet development stage. An expert system, called i Safe, that implements the methodology has also been developed. One key benefit of automation is substantial reduction in the time and effort required to perform safety analysis. The architecture of i Safe is described and illustrated using an acrylic acid process case study.
