    • Impact of Basic Process Chemistry Issues on Process Safety 
      Hendershot, Dennis C. (Mary Kay O'Connor Process Safety Center; Texas &M University. Libraries, 1998)
      The greatest opportunities for development of an inherently safer chemical manufacturing process occur at the earliest stages of research and development, in the selection of the chemical synthesis route for the product. ...
    • Inherent Safety and Reliability in Plant Design 
      Hendershot, Dennis C.; Post, Robert L. (Mary Kay O'Connor Process Safety Center; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2000)
      Inherent safety principles apply at all stages in a process life cycle. While the biggest gains are achieved early, through the selection of inherently safer process technology, there are many opportunities for enhancing ...
    • Was Murphy Wrong? Thoughts on the Application of Murphy’s Law to the Operation and Design of Chemical Plants 
      Hendershot, Dennis C. (Mary Kay O'Connor Process Safety Center; Texas &M University. Libraries, 1999)
      We’ve all heard of Murphy’s Law. It has been stated in various forms, generally something like “If something can go wrong, it will go wrong, and at the worst possible time.” We often quote Murphy’s Law, often in a light-hearted ...
    • What You Ask For Isn’t Always What You Get 
      Kas, K.; Hendershot, D.; Johnson, S. (Mary Kay O'Connor Process Safety Center; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2000)
      Engineers designing equipment for a new process routinely specify the required material of construction. But how can we be sure that the specified material of construction was actually installed? These three incidents ...
