It is hoped that this volume will provide some guidance to operators, plant safety engineers and designers, and that some of the design practices are adopted particularly in older plant operations that do not apply proper pressure let down procedures and flaring practices. Many unsafe operations and even catastrophic failures have been observed by the author in overseas assignments to such countries as Ukraine and other Newly Independent States (NIS) in older plant designs. These incidents have prompted the preparation of this reference.

You should set up a common entry point for such data and put in place an evaluation function to convey appropriate data to the manufacturing, engineering, and design activities. A corrective action form or improvement form could be used to convey the data and obtain a written response of the action to be taken. A log of servicing reports would assist in tracking servicing concerns and demonstrate you were making effective use of the data.

NOTE Although superheater, reheater, and economizer heat exchangers all contain either steam or water in their respective tube bundles, they generally are not considered by boiler engineers and designers to be part of the steam-water circulation system s boiler surfaces. This distinction typically is reserved for the various tubes, connecting headers (manifolds), and drums that collectively provide the primary heat transfer and steam-generating facility.

Efficient transfer of information among engineers and designers will depend on how easily these data can be accessed. The special needs of chemical engineers in this area— the particular ways in which they generate, manage, and use information—merit study.
