PITFALLS IN USING QRA RESULTS; 5 CONCLUSIONS; References; Suggested Additional Reading 330 $aQuantitative Risk Analysis is a powerful tool used to help manage risk and improve safety. When used appropriately, it provides a rational basis for evaluating process safety and comparing alternative safety improvements. This guide, an update of an earlier American Chemistry Council (ACC) publication utilizing the ""hands-on"" experience of CPI risk assessment practitioners and safety professionals involved with the CCPS and ACC, explains how managers and users can make better-informed decisions about QRA, and how plant engineers and process designers can better understand, interpret and use 410 0$aCCPS concept book. 606 $aChemical plants$xRisk assessment 615 0$aChemical plants$xRisk assessment. 676 $a660.2804 676 $a660/.2804 700 $aArendt$b J.
