TABLE OF CONTENTS Accidents on process plants arise as often from deficiencies of operations as from those of design. It is difficult, therefore, to overstress the importance of plant operations in safety and loss prevention.
Accounts of plant operation include Process Plant Design and Operation (D. Scott and Crawley, 1992) and those by E. Edwards and Lees (1973) and London (1982). Some reference to plant operation is also made in many of the Chemical Industries Association (CIA) codes and guidelines and the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) guidelines mentioned in Chapter 11. Selected references on plant operation are given in Table 20.1.
