Beginning with an identified accident scenario, LOPA uses simplifying rules to evaluate initiating event frequency, independent layers of protection, and consequences to provide an order-of-magnitude estimate of risk. LOPA has also proven an excellent approach for determining the safety integrity level necessary for an instrumented safety system, an app 410 0$aCCPS concept book. 606 $aChemical plants$xRisk assessment 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aChemical plants$xRisk assessment. 676 $a660.2804 676 $a660/.2804 712 02$aAmerican Institute of Chemical Engineers.$bCenter for Chemical Process Safety. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910142521703321 996 $aLayer of protection analysis$91416856 997 $aUNINA
