The Challenge Originally published in Tablets & Capsules Magazine Capturing and destroying harmful emissions from pharmaceutical processes can be challenging. It’s not because the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are difficult to destroy using catalytic or thermal techniques. It’s because their concentrations can be so high. These process streams raise safety concerns, both ...
The now internationally known food safety management system Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point or HACCP was first made as a systematic approach to help space explorations in the early 1960s. ...

Most process safety regulations around the world were put into place after major safety incidents occurred. ...
Major Accident Hazards and critical safety issues are inherent in the processes involved in refining, mining, chemical and other primary —particularly if those processes don’t work as planned. ...
The second method uses software in the oxidizer’s control system to identify how many processes are running. It then allows only one new process to come online to the oxidizer and only during a specific period. ...
This case study describes a systematic approach for process hazard analyses (PHAs) and revalidations to identify and address corrosion and dead-leg concerns. It is especially important during project (MOC) PHAs and revalidations of systems that have experienced changes to uncover potential issues. Systematically approaching revalidations can uncover dead-legs created by a previous change and ...
This paper develops a risk benefit cost framework to support facilities planners in the selection and prioritisation of independent protection layers (IPLs), which are identified by an existing commonly adopted methodology known as layer of protection analysis (LOPA). Six incident scenarios are used to analyse and compare feasible process and equipment ...
Hazard Analysis. Using the named and numbered water processing steps from the process flow diagrams, the Team is then required to identify at each processing step, the potential hazards, decide if the hazards are significant (Yes or No) and decide if hazard ...
Standard 188 requires a risk management process called Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP, pronounced “Hassip”), therefore all health care facilities will be required to have a HACCP Program. ...
Christine Kurtz, a Managing Consultant in Trinity’s Minneapolis office, provides clients in the Upper Midwest with the benefits of her 18 years of experience in both industry and consulting. Christine spent over 16 years in industry prior to joining Trinity. She started out in research and development, moved into process engineering, and then found her passion in environmental management ...
The PSM rule’s 14 individual elements can be grouped into a three-step risk management strategy: 1. Understand your process. 2. Identify the hazards of your process. 3. Implement the means to reduce the likelihood and magnitude of the hazards. The central pillar of PSM is the process ...
This research assessed the role of airborne bacteria in the contamination of carcasses during processing in a slaughterhouse prior to implementing hazard analysis and critical control point (HACCP). ...
Many such diseases are prevented using a scientifically-based risk management process called Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP; pronounced “Hassip”). ...
Find/organize records identified in questionnaire. 5. Review the status of all process hazard analysis, incident investigations and cost analysis action items, and reduce/eliminate overdues. 6. ...
INTRODUCTION To aid human experts in conducting HAZOP analysis in a more thorough and systematic way, PHASuite (Process Hazard Analysis Suite) has been developed in this work. ...
INTRODUCTION Safety is an important issue in process design and operation in chemical industry. It is even more critical for modern chemical manufacturing processes, which are either operated under extreme conditions to achieve maximum economic profit, or are highly flexible, such as the specialty chemical or pharmaceutical processes. The ...
DOJ (July 2002) provides a holistic Process Hazards Analysis-type approach to assess terrorist threats and develop a multi-faceted and balanced response. ...
