What Role Does Equipment Design Play in Enhancing Safety?
1. Material Selection: Using materials resistant to chemical corrosion and high temperatures. 2. Pressure Relief Systems: Installing safety valves and rupture discs to manage overpressure situations. 3. Containment Systems: Designing reactors and storage vessels with secondary containment to prevent leaks and spills. 4. Automation and Control Systems: Implementing automated controls and safety interlocks to monitor process conditions and shut down systems during abnormal conditions.
