Abstract

There is an ongoing emphasis on chemical process safety as a result of highly publicized accidents such as the recent BP Deep Water Horizon well blow out in the Gulf of Mexico that resulted in a fire and explosion that killed 11 people and a massive leak of oil that caused catastrophic damage to the environment and economy of the Gulf Coast. Public awareness of these accidents has provided a driving force for industry to improve its safety record. There has also been an increasing amount of government regulation.
