4th Global Congress on Process Safety
4th Global Congress on Process Safety
New Orleans, LA
April 6-9, 2008
Please check back for 2009 Call for Papers coming soon.
The Center for Chemical Process Safety (CCPS), the Loss Prevention Symposium (LPS), and the Process Plant Safety Symposium (PPSS) are coordinating conferences again in 2008 to present the 4th Global Congress on Process Safety. This annual event is the primary forum for practitioners from the chemical and allied industries, academia, and government to share practical and technological advances in all aspects of process safety. As industry works to adapt to a changing business environment and limited resources, strategies such as Risk-Based Process Safety (RBPS) can be effectively used.
Risk-Based Process Safety (RBPS) is a management approach to design, correct, and improve process safety management activities, commensurate with the risk-based need for these activities, the availability of resources, and the existing process safety culture. The four main concepts of RBPS that we hope to address throughout this conference are: Committing to Process Safety, Understanding Hazards and Risks, Managing Risks, and Learning from Experience.
