Case Study

After studying many real life examples, the final module will have a Case Study. This will be a full fledged mock HAZOP of a Process Unit and includes realistic processes, P & IDs and  filled-in worksheets. After this is over, there is also an Audit of the HAZOP so conducted, to make it more realistic. Before and After P & IDs are included.

The above are all part of the Online and Professional Download versions of the software. In addition, the Enterprise Version will also have Case Studies of other commonly used Process Units such as Distillation Columns, Overground Storage Tanks and so on. This gives an easy way to carry out your own HAZOP Studies in your own plant or facility. Below is an example of a P & ID which is part of the Distillation Column Case Study in the Enterprise version.
