From the publisher

This book provides guidance on characterizing, recognizing, and responding to warning signs to help avoid process incidents and injuries before they occur. The guidance can be used by both process safety management (PSM) professionals in evaluating their processes and PSM systems as well as for operators who are often the frontline defense against process incidents. Warning signs may consist of process deviations or upsets, instrumentation warnings or alarms, past operating history and incidents, observable problems such as corrosion or unusual odors, audit results indicating procedures are not being followed, or a number of other indicators. Filled with photos and practical tips, this book will turn anyone in a process plant into a hazard lookout and will help prevent potential incidents before they turn into catastrophic events.

From the rear cover

Practical advice for recognizing potential process incidents before they happen

Serious process incidents can occur at any time, but in many cases, warning signs--unusual odors, observable corrosion, or past operating history concerns--that could prevent potentially catastrophic accidents go unrecognized. Recognizing Catastrophic Incident Warning Signs in the Process Industries presents a comprehensive look at how to design and implement effective process safety management (PSM) systems. Going beyond other books on the market, it also offers unique guidance on how to recognize and respond to warning signs before it's too late.

Providing guidance on characterizing and responding to the warning signs that anticipate process incidents, the book is an invaluable tool for PSM professionals evaluating their processes and systems, the operators at the front lines of defense against process incidents, and anyone involved with or interested in improving process safety. Packed with practical tips and photos, and with an accompanying website that contains an assortment of auxiliary documents, the book is designed to turn anyone in a process plant into a hazard lookout.
