Engineered Safety Systems and Mitigation Technologies I

Many types of engineered systems are implemented to maintain safe operations and prevent adverse outcomes. Engineered safety systems and other mitigation technologies are diverse in their nature and function and may include mechanical pressure relief systems, automated response systems, or operator interfaces or passive mitigation such as drain systems or fireproofing. Their design, sizing, and reliability are hence of critical importance for the chemical process industries based on a relationship between the hazard and its prevention or mitigation. This session invites speakers to share their knowledge on new applications, best practices, case studies, and lessons learned.
