This is a book for engineers that covers the hardware and software aspects ofhighreliability safety systems safety instrumentation and shutdown systems aswell as risk assessment techniques and the wider spectrum of industrial safety.Rather than another book on the discipline of safety engineering this is athoroughly practical guide to the procedures and technology of safety incontrol and plant engineering. This highly practical book focuses onefficiently implementing and assessing hazard studies designing and applyinginternational safety practices and techniques and ensuring high reliability inthe safety and emergency shutdown of systems in your plant.This book will provide the reader with the most uptodate standards for andinformation on each stage of the safety life cycle from the initial evaluationof hazards through to the detailed engineering and maintenance of safetyinstrumented systems. It will help them develop the ability to plan hazard andrisk assessment studies then design and implement and operate the safetysystems and maintain and evaluate them to ensure high reliability. Finally itwill give the reader the knowledge to help prevent the massive devastation anddestruction that can be caused by todays highly technical computer controlledindustrial environments.
