Instructor: Dr. Chad Mashuga, JEB 205 Phone: (979) 845-3339 e-mail: mashuga@tamu.edu Texas A&M University College Station, TX 77843-3122 CHEMICAL PROCESS SAFETY; CHEN 455 Class: MWF; 09:00 09:50 am; JEB 106 All aspects of Chemical Process Safety and Loss Prevention are addressed in this course. Process safety is concerned primarily with the identification of potential hazards and hazardous conditions associated with the processes and equipment involved in the chemical process industries. It includes methods of predicting the possible severity of the associated hazards and preventing, controlling or mitigating them. The material is thus different from personnel safety or industrial hygiene. As such, it is necessary to understand the operation of these processes and the equipment, and to apply sound engineering fundamentals to the analysis and prediction of performance, under adverse circumstances. Thus, the course emphasizes quantitative engineering analysis. This is based on the application of mass and energy balances, fluid mechanics of liquid, gas, and two-phase flow, heat transfer and the conservation of energy, mass transfer, reaction kinetics, process control, statistics, and diffusion & dispersion under highly variable conditions,. Techniques for performing process hazard analysis, risk assessment, and accident investigations are covered, including the review of several significant incidents in the chemical processing industry. The course topics follow those in the text: A. Crowl and Joseph F. Louvar, Chemical Process Safety: Fundamentals with Applications, Prentice Hall (3rd edition). Homework assignments are taken primarily from the problems in the book with occasional supplements. This material is supplemented and extended by student projects, which culminate in a report and class presentation. Prerequisites: Fundamentals of mass and energy balances, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat and mass transfer operations. Course Learning Outcomes: 1. Recognize professional and ethical elements of an outstanding safety program. 2. Evaluate ethical issues that may occur in professional engineering practice. 3. Recognize ethical standards and professional codes of conduct for engineers, e.g., NSPE Code of Ethics for Engineers. 4. Identify government agencies, regulatory bodies, codes, and standards that govern the global, societal, and environmental impact of plant design projects. 5. Be able to list examples of how unsound science or unethical behavior had a negative impact on society. 6. Identify and apply OSHA PSM and EPA RMP in the chemical process industries.

7. Describe and apply the principles and approach of inherently safer design to reduce and eliminate hazards and thereby lower the risk of new or currently operating chemical systems. 8. Describe the operation of chemical processes and equipment and apply engineering fundamentals to the analysis and prediction of performance under adverse circumstances. 9. Perform quantitative engineering analysis based upon the applications of mass and energy balances, fluid mechanics of liquid, gas, and two-phase flow, heat transfer and the conservation of energy, mass transfer, reaction kinetics, process control, statistics, and diffusion & dispersion under highly variable conditions,. 10. Perform PHA analyses of targeted chemical process industries and evaluate the safety performance. 11. Identify the potential hazards and hazardous conditions associated with the processes and equipment involved in the chemical process industries. 12. Work effectively in teams and develop problem solving skills. Prepare and present a professional project report. Course Materials / Lectures: Weekly lectures will be posted on the VNET prior to class and available at: VNET.tamu.edu. Log on with your Net ID. Teams: Students will be grouped into teams of ~3, and work on the homework assignments and term project as a team. Each student will submit individual homework assignments. The purpose of working in teams is not to spread the work around but to capture the synergies of teamwork, benefiting from each member s perspective. Team members will periodically evaluate each other in terms of their contribution to homework and the team project, which will be reflected in grades. Homework: Homework will generally be assigned Friday of each week. It is due the following Friday at the beginning of class (9:10.00) It is expected that all team members will participate in answering all homework problems. Homework will be submitted with a cover sheet which includes the date(s) that the team met to work the homework. Late homework will not be accepted, except when prior approval has been obtained. Homework solutions will be posted on the VNET. Attendance: Class attendance is important. Class participation is encouraged, material will be covered in class beyond the text, including several videos, and there will be unannounced quizzes. Project: Each team will prepare a term project (selected from a list of topics provided), and the team will make a formal class presentation and submit a formal report on their project. Topics will be distributed on February 23 rd, teams will select their top three topics on February 27 th, with the final topic confirmed by the Instructor on March 2 nd. An abstract is due on March 13 th and the report due on April 17 th both electronically and as a hard copy. Presentations will be on April 20 th, 22 nd & 24 th from 5:30 10 pm (see Schedual for rooms). Grading of the project is based on the abstract, written report, presentation, response to Q&As, teammate evaluations, and attendance and

participation at presentations. The former two are team grades, while all other areas are individual grades. Exams: There will be three exams during the term. All exams will be open-book in class. Exam I is scheduled on Friday, February 20 th ; Exam II on Friday, March 27 th ; with Exam III at the time assigned by University, May 8 th, 8:00 10:00 am. Class Policy: All quizzes are closed-book, while exams are open book. Missing a quiz / exam results in a zero, unless arrangements were made with the instructor in advance. No texting, Blackberry or cell phone use during lectures, exams or quizzes. Grading Criteria: Homework 15% Project Report/Presentation 15% Quizzes 10% Exam I 20% Exam II 20% Exam III 20% Grades: 90-100 A 80-89 B 70-79 C 60-69 D <60 F SUPPORT: Dr. Chad Mashuga (mashuga@tamu.edu) Thursday: 9 11:00 & by appointment TA Melissa Santos (mcs723@tamu.edu) Tuesday s: 1:00 3:00 in Rm 317 & by appointment Distance Learn Support - Joan French (joanfrench@tees.tamus.edu) NOTICES: The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a federal antidiscrimination statute that provides comprehensive civil rights protection for persons with disabilities.
