Selection of inherently safer preventive measures to reduce human error

The inherent safety concept has been introduced to overcome the shortcoming of traditional hazard assessments by allowing modification to be made at any stage of life-cycle of a process plant. However, most of the proposed inherent safety modifications were suitable to prevent fire, explosion and to...
