Abstract

Pressure Relief Systems are designed to protect catastrophic disassembly of a pressure vessel from a pressure excursion. Evergreen Relief System documentation and the design basis play a crucial role in maintaining the safety and integrity of the process. They are designed for the worst case scenario and indeed the last line of defense.

This presentation will focus on the important key regulatory framework that governs Emergency Relief System Design and Design basis. Highlight audit requirements per OSHA compliance directive: Horizontal integration between the PHA Team and ERS Designers, Guidelines for design, installation, and maintenance of Pressure Relief Devices.
