Specialized Course on Process Safety Engineering :
PROCESS SAFETY IN UNIT OPERATIONS
P R O C E S S S A F E T Y I N U N I T O P E R AT I O N S
Process safety is a specific discipline within the organization of a company. The level and quality of process safety management determines the success of the organization. Delta Process Academy aims, with this 4-day Specialized Course on Process Safety in Unit Operations, to provide professionals with a process safety course offering the essentials of process safety engineering. The lectures are taught by specialists in their discipline. For each day a syllabus is provided by the organization and a certificate will be granted at completion of the course. Additionally for all the participants a text book “Guidelines for Engineering Design for Process Safety” is provided.

A I M S
Process Safety Engineering plays an important part during the lifecycle of a process plant. Not only are important preventive and mitigating measures defined during the project phase, also during operations changes are introduced; near misses and incidents will occur. This all requires a fundamental knowledge of process safety concepts.
The lectures will start with an introduction to the two most important process units within the chemical industry: batch reactors and distillation columns. Both will be presented in a generic way to indicate specific process safety features, generic for the process industry.
Special attention will be paid to other aspects such as P&ID and 3D model review. Also the impact of start-up and shutdown will be clarified during the course.
The practical approach of the above lectures is illustrated during two extended seminars: the basic principles for calculating a relief valve (API 521) and the set-up of an instrumentational protection (IEC 65111). The course will end with a plant visit to VOPAK in the Antwerp Harbour region.
This course is included in Master of Safety Engineering at the KULeuven and has a student’s evaluation of 4,8/5.
