Transportation risk assessment for ethanol transport
(2009-05-15)
This research is aimed at assessing the quantitative risks involved with an ethanol
pipeline. Pipelines that run from the Midwest, where the vast majority of ethanol is
produced, to the target areas where reformulated ...
Risk Measures Constituting Risk Metrics for Decision Making in the Chemical Process Industry
(2012-02-14)
The occurrence of catastrophic incidents in the process industry leave a marked legacy of resulting in staggering economic and societal losses incurred by the company, the government and the society. The work described ...
Development of an Experimental Facility for Flame Speed Measurements in Powdered Aerosols
(2012-10-19)
Research with heterogeneous mixtures involving solid particulate in closed, constant-volume bombs is typically limited by the powder dispersion technique. This work details the development of an experimental apparatus that ...
Facility Siting and Layout Optimization Based on Process Safety
(2012-02-14)
In this work, a new approach to optimize facility layout for toxic release, fire and explosion scenarios is presented. By integrating a risk analysis in the optimization
formulation, safer assignments for facility layout ...
Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Vapor Dispersion Modeling with Computational Fluid Dynamics Codes
(2012-10-19)
Federal regulation 49 CFR 193 and standard NFPA 59A require the use of validated consequence models to determine the vapor cloud dispersion exclusion zones for accidental liquefied natural gas (LNG) releases. For modeling ...
Development of a Vapor Cloud Explosion Risk Analysis Tool Using Exceedance Methodology
(2012-10-19)
In development projects, designers should take into consideration the possibility of a vapor cloud explosion in the siting and design of a process plant from day one. The most important decisions pertinent to the location ...
