Part design checklist

For a plant design problem, students will need guidance on the hierarchical levels of decision making to choose a process. Also checklists of information needed for the design of typical parts of commercial processes prove invaluable. These are provided in Dr. Long s student handout. 

Next is a questionnaire which only covers the specific requirements of the standard. This breaks down the requirements into their individual components where it is likely that the solutions for each part will be different. It can be used as a basic checklist for verifying that the quality system you have designed addresses all the requirements, or as a means of creating policy or of assessing conformity. 

For example, a traditional checklist is, by definition, based on the process experience the author accumulates from various sources. The checklist is likely to provide incomplete insights into the design, procedural, and operating features necessary for a safe process. The what-if part of the analysis uses a team s creativity and experience to brainstorm potential accident scenarios. However, because the what-if analysis method is usually not as detailed, systematic, or thorough as some of the more regimented approaches (e.g., HAZOP study, FMEA), use of a checklist permits the PrHA team to fill in any gaps in their thought process. 

This FDA Orphan-Drug Review checklist has been designed in consultation with FDA reviewers, industry consultants, and regulatory professionals to serve as a summary tool indicating the evaluative criteria used by the Office of Orphan-Drug Development to critique and assess applications received. It can be used internally as a part of the Quality Assurance process, as a guideline for regulatory development of an application, and/or as a self-assessment tool to predict likely FDA response to an application. 

Loss-of-Containment Causes The list in Table 23-30 indicates four basic ways in which containment can be lost. These cause categories can be used both as a checklist of considerations during the design process and as a starting point for evaluating the adequacy of safeguards as part of a process hazard and risk analysis. 

Consequence analysis plays an important part in Chemical Process Quantitative Risk Analysis (CPQRA). CPQRA is a methodology designed to provide management with a tool to help evaluate overall process safety in the chemical process industry (CPI). Management systems such as engineering codes, checklists and process safety management (PSM) provide layers of protection against accidents. However, the potential for serious incidents cannot be totally eliminated. CPQRA provides a quantitative method to evaluate risk and to identify areas for cost-effective risk reduction.
