Basics of HAZOP
What Did we Do Before HAZOP Came Along?
We relied upon:
Good engineering practices
Codes of practice such as ASME, API, NFPA, etc.
Informal safety reviews
So what slips through the cracks?
Interface problems between equipment and systems
Abnormal conditions not envisioned during design
Human error in design, operation, maintenance
How Do We Know If a Plant Is Safe?
Historical record of plant incidents and near misses
History of incidents on similar plants
Record of onstream time
Can apply some risk ranking, e.g., Dow/Mond indices
Ask: What guarantee do we have that there isn't a serious accident about to happen?
If there is NO guarantee:
What can we do about it?

HAZOP Methodology
HAZOP
Acronym for HAZards and Operability Analysis.
Originated by Imperial Chemical Industries (ICI) in Mond Division.
Basic Concept
Simulate abnormal behavior by considering deviations and disturbances due to causes
likely to impact immediate and surrounding plant resulting in consequences. Then decide
whether the design has adequate features (i.e., safeguards) that can prevent occurrence or
limit the consequential effects. If no such safeguards exist, then consider what actions are
needed to remedy the situation.
High Deviation
Normal (Design Intention)
Low Deviation
Other Deviations typically include:
Reverse of what was intended.
What else can happen?
System only partially functions.
What additional things can occur?

Basics of HAZOP 6 -3
Methodology for Generating Deviations
G u i d e W o r d + P r o p e r t y = D e v i a t i o n
For example:
When Property = Parameter:
High + Flow
- -
Low + Pressure
- -
More + Reaction
- -
When Property = Operation:
No + Transfer
- -
Less + Empty - -
When Property = Material:
No + Steam
- -
More + Diluent
- -
High Flow
Low Pressure
Greater Reactivity
No Transfer
Residue Remaining
No Steam
More Diluent

Basics of HAZOP 6-4
What Type of HAZOP Should You Use?
Parametric Deviation (e.g., High pressure, Low temperature, etc.)
Good for continuous processes.
Most widely used in world today.
Critical Examination
The approach examines:
Material
= Activities
Sources and Destinations
Good for batch operations, start-up, shut down.
Procedural Methodology
Useful far HAZOPing:
Operating manuals, procedures
Batch operations
Start-up, shut down
Knowledge Based HAZOP (more like 'What i f with established Checklist)
Mainly applicable to:
Well established (continuous) processes
Organizations with very high quality engineering practices & standards

Basics of HAZOP 6-5
Steps in the HAZOP Process
1. Preparation
Assemble:
P&IDs (Full size and reduced copies for the team)
PFDs plus material and energy balances
Equipment specifications
Layout drawings
2. Facilitator and Process Engineer
Break P&IDs down into Nodes.
Nodes are equipment items (or numbers of items).
If nodes are too small you can loose sense of analysis and incur excessive
repetition.
If nodes are too large, hard to handle, becomes confusing.
Question: How do you size a node?
Answer: Based on system function.
Example: Reactor feed system may consist of Pump + Line + Exchanger.
3. Prepare HAZOP Outline with List of Deviations
4. Assemble HAZOP Team

5. Facilitator Explains
The facilitator or one of the team members explains the purpose and scope of the
HAZOP and sets the rules for the study.
6. Process Engineer Explains
Process in general
Immediate Node being HAZOPed
7. HAZUP Each Node Using Deviations Listed in Outline Working Through
the P&ZD.
Produce HAZOP worksheet recording the following:
Causes
Consequences
Safeguards
Actions/Recommendations
Remarks
8. At the End of HAZOP, the Facilitator Issues Preliminary HAZOP Report
(issuance is optional) consisting of
Attendance
Outline
Detail Report
Action/Recommendations Register
9. Issue Final Report Giving Full Details

C-t: LIGHT ENDS RECOVERY UNIT (See Figures 6- 1 and 6-2)
To imuam the li&hta& pottion of a liquid feed stream containing 50%, by weight, of light 4 s us& a
d m M 6 m t ~ . The feed rate is 100,000 lbhour and the intent is ta r-wr 81% af the light em&
w ,k
hF in ,order to prpduue a1W h , by weight, light ends distillate.
RYPOess Description:
The lmit is W &QI XI aq uptream &d dnxm, V- 10 1. Liquid feed is sqpplied at a btw@ MI
pdgdat 22QP. The f& Is pre-heated by heat exchange with the light emis wippwr bmggp&&m @ 3QQ F, in
that &&&M&m ~~b EX-101, before it enters the light ends stripper, C-101..
The light end$ t@l~per+ C- l Ql , is a 22 plate fractionation column, ushg valve-type h y s wl i hb~Pmd
ImWd
on plate 12.
Overhead vapors from the light ends stripper, C- 10 1, pass to the light ends condenser, EX-102, which is water
cooled. Fluids from this condenser flow to the reflux drum, V-102. Non condensible vapors entering the reflux
drum, V-102, are vented to the flare system while the condensed liquids pass to the reflux pump, P-101 or spare.
The total distillate is split so that product distillate is sent directly to storage while the main portioo is reflusedbaak
to the top of the light ends stripper, C- 10 1.
At the base of the light ends stripper, C-10 1, there is a vertical thermosiphon reboiler, EX-103, which is heated by
300 psig steam on the shell side. Bottoms liquid from the base of the light ends stripper, C-101, is pumped by a
bottoms pump, P-102 or spare, to the tube side of the feedhottoms exchanger, EX-101, in which it is cooled by feed
before passing to storage.
Process Controls:
The feed to column is under flow control via loop FRC-10 1.
The reflux flow is under flow control via loop FRC-116.
Distillate withdrawal is under level control via loop LlC-107, from the reflux drum level.
Non-condensibles bleed off under pressure control via loop PIC- 106 based on the overheads column pressure.
> DYADEM
2003 by CRC Prcss LLC
Basics of HAZOP 6-1 3
The rate of bottoms withdrawal is under level control via loop LIC-119 based on the column bottom level.
The steam flow to the reboiler is under composition control via temperature control loop TRC-126 based on the
process side of the reboiler outlet.
Protective Devices:
Relief valve PSV-105, protects against overpressuring of the light ends stripper and connected components.
Relief valve, PSV-106, protects against thermal expansion on the cooling water side of the light ends condenser.
High and low level conditions, LAH-120, LAL-12 1 and LAH & LAL-107, are alarmed respectively on the light
ends stripper and the reflux drum. The low level condition, LSL-12 1, on the stripper is also interlocked to stop the
bottoms pump. The low low level condition on the reflux drum stops the reflux pump.
In event of failure of the bottoms pump, the spare pump is started by a low low pressure switch, PSLL-125. The
same arrangement, for the reflux pump, is also supplied by a low low pressure switch, PSLL-109.
High or low column pressures are alarmed by PAH & PAL- 106 respectively.
Loss of reflux is alarmed by FAL- 1 16.
Loss of steam to the reboiler is alarmed by TAL- 126.
A minimum flow bypass on the bottoms pump protects against the no flow condition.
Remotely operable motor operated valve, MOV-122, can be manually initiated in an emergency, such as bottoms
line leaklfiacture, to prevent significant flammables inventory loss and fire.
The instrument air failure positions of the control valves are indicated as F.C. (fail close) or F.O. (fail open).
Car seal open (CSO) valves are as indicated.
Assumptions:
During a normal HAZOP you would normally have access to full equipment specifications, plant layout drawings,
piping specifications, line lists, tie points and other pertinent documents. As this sample demonstrates PHA-Pro,
rather than being an exercise in design, such documents are not included. Therefore make whatever assumptions
you think reasonable if you wish to modify or extend the HAZOP as shown.
Normal Operating Conditions:
Stream #1, Feed @ 220 F, 90 PSIG, 100,000 LbIHour, 50% Light Ends
Stream #2, Overhead @ 200 F, 75 PSIG, 135,000 LbIHour, 90.2% Light Ends
Stream #3, Bottoms @ 300 F, 120 PSIG, 50,000 LbIHour, 9.5% Light Ends
Stream #4, Reflux @ 200 F, 75 PSIG, 85,000 LbIHour, 90% Light Ends
Stream #5, Non Condensibles @ 200 F, 75 PSIG, 5,000 LbMour, 95% Light Ends
Stream #6, Distillate @ 200 F, 150 PSIG, 45,000 LbIHour, 90% Light Ends
Stream #7, Reboiler Feed @ 300 F, 80 PSIG, 185,000 LbIHour, 9.5% Light Ends
Stream #8, Steam Flow @ 420 F, 300 PSIG, 25,000 LbIHour
