June 21-24, 2010 (Salem, NH)
Overview
This four-day course is a comprehensive discussion on the concepts and
principles of consequence analysis and modeling. In addition to helping
operating companies address regulatory requirements such as OSHA 1910.119 and
the EPA RMP rule, this course provides guidance on how to improve chemical
hazard identification and increase operating profits through better process
controls, emergency response, and mitigation design. The course addresses both
how and why hazardous incidents occur. Case histories and hands-on computer
modeling will be employed throughout to enable participants to apply the
knowledge on real plant problems.
