Course Objectives
- Develop an awareness of safety culture and gain the necessary knowledge and skills to be able to evaluate the toxic effect of chemicals and other hazards.
- Identify the potential hazards and hazardous conditions associated with the processes and equipment involved in the chemical process industries.
- Perform quantitative engineering analysis based on fluid mechanics, heat and mass transfer, reaction kinetics, process control, and statistics to predict the possible severity of hazards and controlling or mitigating them.
- Understand and apply the principles and approach of inherently safer chemical process design to reduce and eliminate hazards.
- Recognize the role that ethics plays in process design and operation.
- Identify and apply Process Safety Management and Risk Management Plan in the chemical process industries.
