It provides specific guidance on Independent Protection Layers (IPLs) that are not Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS).  Using the LOPA methodology, companies typically take credit for risk reductions accomplished through non-SIS alternatives; i.e. administrative procedures, equipment design, etc.   It addresses issues such as how to ensure the effectiveness and maintain reliability for administrative controls or “inherently safer, passive” concepts.  \u003cp\u003eThis book will address how the fields of Human Reliability Analysis, Fault Tree Analysis, Inherent Safety, Audits and Assessments, Maintenance, and Emergency Response relate to LOPA and SIS. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book will separate IPL’s into categories such as the following:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003col\u003e \u003cli\u003eInherent Safety  \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eeliminates a scenario or fundamentally reduces a hazard\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePreventive\/Proactive  \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eprevents initiating event from occurring such as enhanced maintenance\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePreventive\/Active  \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003estops chain of events after initiating event occurs but before an incident has occurred such as high level in a tank shutting off the pump.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMitigation (active or passive)  \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eminimizes impact once an incident has occurred such as closing block valves once LEL is detected in the dike (active) or the dike preventing contamination of groundwater (passive).\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp\u003eSince 1985, the \u003cb\u003eCenter for Chemical Process Safety (CCPS)\u003c\/b\u003e has been the world leader in developing and disseminating information on process safety management and technology.
