Stetson University HAZOP Report

I
ndividuals will perform a HAZOP on a single unit operation of a model power plant based off of the
National energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) Vol 1 of ‘Cost and Performance Baseline for Fossil Energy
Plants’.You can

Each
student
will choose
a specific unit of the plant
from study area 1
–
7
(identified in red box and
labeled as Main Unit
).
Table shows
the study area
and the corresponding pages of the document
that
are related to that unit. Perform a HAZOP of the unit, detailing possible deviations in normal operation
and what would be the predicted outcomes of the deviations.
Present this information as a table
.
Identify if the deviations cause issues with prod
uct quality (such as reduced energy production) or a
hazard (such as loss of containment of steam).
You do not need to detail every possible deviation,
but
should
include enough details to address
at least
4 deviation of each major inlet/outlet
node
. You s
hould be able to identify
at least
2
nodes
(CHE
5292 students, please select 3 nodes
). Summarize the findings
of your HAZOP analysis and note which deviations you were not able to find corrective actions for
(1
-2 pages)
. Suggest a method used for investigating corrective actions.
Here is the conte
nt of the report: Cover page, abstract,
introduction about the unit operation, HAZOP
table, discussions and recommendations, and references (IEEE style). Please use Times New Roman,

Each student will choose a specific unit of the plant from study area 1 – 7 (identified in red box and
labeled as Main Unit). Table shows the study area and the corresponding pages of the document that
are related to that unit. Perform a HAZOP of the unit, detailing possible deviations in normal operation
and what would be the predicted outcomes of the deviations. Present this information as a table.
Identify if the deviations cause issues with product quality (such as reduced energy production) or a
hazard (such as loss of containment of steam). You do not need to detail every possible deviation, but
should include enough details to address at least 4 deviation of each major inlet/outlet node. You should
be able to identify at least 2 nodes (CHE 5292 students, please select 3 nodes). Summarize the findings
of your HAZOP analysis and note which deviations you were not able to find corrective actions for (1-2
pages). Suggest a method used for investigating corrective actions.
