چکیده مقاله:

Quantitative assessment is the most important means to identify hazard potential and manage risk for an industrial process. The implement of quantitative assessment in the early stage will help to develop inherently safer process, eliminating the hazard and reduce the possibility of accidental chain events and the magnitude of consequences. In this paper, after reviewing the presently available assessment method, we present the disadvantages of current technology in several aspects. Focusing on the main disadvantage of subjectivity in two aspects of index valuing and weighting, which is a serious barrier to measure the real level of process safety, we propose a quantitative assessment method integrated fuzzy inference and Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) to quantify safety and health hazards of chemical process route in preliminary design stage. The purpose of integrating fuzzy inference into it is to reduce the subjectivity of index valuing system. The fuzzy inference system is designed without medium variable in order to eliminate its negative effect on assessment result. Index weighting is determined by AHP more objectively based on the ordering of inherent safety guidewords. Finally, the proposed method is applied to assessment nine competing routes of acetic acid manufacture to present its improvement.

Inherent occupational health assessment during preliminary design stage

Chemical process routes can already be assessed as early as in the development and design phases. Process screening should not look at economic and technical aspects only, but also the safety, health, and environmental performances. In this paper, a method called the Health Quotient Index (HQI) is presented for the preliminary process design phase. The HQI provides a simple approach to quantify...

Design and Simulation of Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference Based Controller for Chaotic Lorenz System

Chaos is a nonlinear behavior that shows chaotic and irregular responses to internal and external stimuli in dynamic systems. This behavior usually appears in systems that are highly sensitive to initial condition. In these systems, stabilization is a highly considerable tool for eliminating aberrant behaviors. In this paper, the problem of stabilization and tracking the chaos are investigated....
