What Tools and Techniques are Used in QRA for Catalysis?
Several tools and techniques are employed in QRA for catalysis, including:
- Hazard and Operability Study (HAZOP): A systematic qualitative technique used to identify potential hazards and operability issues. - Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA): A step-by-step approach for identifying all possible failures in a design, manufacturing, or assembly process. - Event Tree Analysis (ETA): A forward-looking approach to evaluate the outcomes of different initiating events. - Fault Tree Analysis (FTA): A top-down approach to analyze the probability of safety or reliability failures. - Monte Carlo Simulation: A probabilistic technique used to model the uncertainty in risk assessment by running multiple simulations.
