Safety implications

The development of health-promoting foods is likely to entail increasing use of different protein sources known to contain bioactive components. They may be natural constituents of plant or animal origin, or genetically modified or transferred from another source. It is likely that, in the future, more and more traditional food products will appear on the market, containing

However, in the early stages of design, decisions that have important safety implications must be made based on an incomplete picture. Let us explore simple quantitative measures which can be used to assist decision making in the early stages of design. 

Concern/Issue Identifies a specific safety issue or concern and its safety implications. 

The thermal expansion and contraction of solids can also have safety implications. For a given material the amount of its linear expansion, or contraction, in one direction is directly related to temperature and its original size (i.e. length, diameter, circumference). Thus ... 

From a reliability engineering perspective, error can be defined by analogy with hardware reliability as "The likelihood that the human fails to provide a required system function when called upon to provide that fimction, within a required time period" (Meister, 1966). This definition does not contain any references to why the error occurred, but instead focuses on the consequences of the error for the system (loss or unavailability of a required function). The disadvantage of such a definition is that it fails to consider the wide range of other actions that the human might make, which may have other safety implications for the system, as well as not achieving the required function.

Care must also be taken where large live loading are concerned such as gantry cranes, hoists, materials handling, etc. to ensure that structural and safety implications are properly addressed during both design and construction stages. 

Combustion equipment, when first commissioned, can be set to operate at its optimum efficiency. With time, however, there will be a deterioration due to blockage of air filters and breather holes, wear in valve linkages, etc. Such changes may have safety implications if gas-rich firing is a consequence. 

The materials selection procedure for new or replacement plant is crucial to the safe and economic operation of that plant. There is no one correct way to select the appropriate construction material, since for small plant handling toxic or inflammable products the integrity of the plant is high in priority, whereas large plant producing bulk material in a competitive market is more likely to be made of cheaper constructional materials, and the occasional leak or failure may have fewer safety implications. 

Vessels designed for microwave-assisted SPOS must fulfill several require-menfs because of fhe harsh conditions (i.e., high temperatures and pressures) usually associated with microwave heating. Open vessels are often impractical because of the possible loss of solvent and/or volatile reagents during the heating process. However, in cases where a volatile byproduct inhibits a reaction, their use may be superior over closed systems. A sealed vessel retains the solvents and reagents, but must be sturdily constructed to avoid the obvious safety implications due to the buildup of pressure. 

We currently model, at least in simple fashion, all resins scaled-up which have an exothermic stage, in order to assess safety implications and utilise plant to its highest productivity regarding heat removal. The data generated is used in verification of kinetics models. 

Consider the safety implications of leaving the knife where it is. Pass the relevant details on to a responsible adult as soon as possible so they can act correctly and arrange for its safe removal. 

Water is a good choice of solvent in a standard kitchen percolator because it removes all the water-soluble components from the coffee - hence the flavour. Clearly, however, a different solvent is required if only the caffeine is to be removed. Such a solvent must be cheap, have a low boiling point to prevent charring of the coffee and, most importantly, should leave no toxic residues. The presence of any residue would be unsatisfactory to a customer, since it would almost certainly leave a taste and there are also health and safety implications when residues persist.

It is important that no part of the total relief system (including both the relief system hardware and the, chemical reaction system for which the relief system has been designed) is modified without consideration of the safety implications on the overall system. This is facilitated by good documentation, as described above. 

The physical properties of lithium metal were given in Table 4.4. Despite its obvious attractions as an electrode material, there are severe practical problems associated with its use in liquid form at high temperatures. These are mainly related to the corrosion of supporting materials and containers, pressure build-up and the consequent safety implications. Such difficulties were experienced in the early development of lithium high temperature cells and led to the replacement of pure lithium by lithium alloys, which despite their lower thermodynamic potential remained solid at the temperature of operation and were thus much easier to use. 

The safety implications of plug dissociation are sometimes life-threatening, and should be an important concern. 

Carefully evaluate the safety concerns of plug removal (please read the following section to determine the major safety implications imposed by hydrate plugs)... 

Assessing subjective sleepiness is an important issue in our 24/7 society. For instance, workers frequently have to rely on their internal assessment of sleepiness when making decisions about whether they are alert enough to work an extra shift or drive a little further before stopping. Often the subjective feeling of sleepiness may be one of the first cues that a worker has that he or she can no longer function on the job in a safe manner. Obviously this type of self-assessment can have profound safety implications in real-world settings. 

Recently, due to food safety implications, plant proteomics gained in importance and progress made is already impressive. Even so, not much is known on plant proteomics details. A number of questions are yet to be answered such as their dynamic concentration, where they are located, and how the proteins are post-translationally modified. The function of many of these proteins is moreover unknown (e.g., their mutual interaction and their response to environmental stimulations). 

Select the criteria by which idea is to be judged. The questions asked might well be can it be exploited by the company, is it within our technical competence, are the cost and time implications satisfactory, are there any health and safety implications or adverse environmental impact, etc. 

Techniques of tritium removal from co-deposited layers in next-generation tokamaks, such as ITER, have an important impact on machine operation. Attempts are being made to develop in-situ co-deposit removal techniques that would not overly constrain machine operation, both in terms of T removal and plasma performance recovery after cleanup. In addition to machine operation considerations, the tritium in the co-deposited layers will also have safety implications. During a severe accident, the vacuum vessel of an operating tokamak can be breached. If a significant inventory of tritium in the form of a saturated layer is present, much of this tritium can be released as tritium oxide as the film reacts with oxygen.
