Abstract
A refinery or chemical facility spends less than 10% of its time on transient operations but more than 50% of process safety incidents have occurred during such activities. Major plant accidents are more than five times likely to occur during abnormal operations. In that regard, understanding dynamic behavior of processes through studying its fundamental principles or analyzing process data is of significant importance. In this chapter, we have introduced application of data analysis-based methodologies and dynamic modeling and simulation based approaches within the context of process safety. The primary objective in this chapter is to provide an overview of the available tools in this area to the readers. The methodologies discussed here should be treated as brief introductions and are by no means presented comprehensively.
