This is mainly caused by people's tendency to overestimate human's capability in interacting with their working environment and moreover by the unavailability of reliable analysis methods. Because of the current lack of adequate methods, human factors (HF) analysis is not widely performed in process industry. Some HF techniques developed in the process industry were examined regarding their practical applicability and were unfortunately proved to be unsuitable for an elaborate HF analysis. Therefore, a new approach was developed, which provides a systematic way in performing a qualitative HF analysis to achieve a safer operation and decrease the number of human failure events. HF consideration during the design of a process plant is the key to minimize accidents caused by human error in process industry. Thus, an approach to incorporate HF into design phase is described in this article, which can help achieving a safer operation as early as possible with minimized costs. © 2009 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Process Saf Prog 2009 Y1 - 2009 UR - http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/prs.10328/abstract SN - 1066-8527 SP - 347 EP - 355 ER - TY - JOUR A1 - Löwe, Katharina A1 - Kariuki, S.

T1 - A new strategy for product switchover and startup for a heat- and mass-integrated distillation system JF - Chemical Engineering and Processing: Process Intensification 40 (2001) 3 N2 - For most separations fully thermally coupled distillation columns are thermodynamically more efficient than conventional arrangements. In spite of the superiority of double-effect distillation systems to a single column concerning energy savings these systems are not often used in the industrial practice, because of the disadvantages in dynamic operability. Generally the product switchover is a complicated and protracted operation, where many process variables must be changed simultaneously. The economic and ecological interest is to minimize the time of switchover periods, which are generally non-productive and require long times especially for coupled systems. The aim of this study is to reduce the time needed for the product switchover of coupled distillation systems. This paper presents a new product switchover strategy, which will lead to a time saving of 57%. Furthermore, a new startup strategy is developed and verified in experimental studies. The results demonstrate that using the optimized startup strategy a time saving of 57% can be achieved too and thereby these unproductive periods can be reduced significantly.
