Emergency Relief System Design Using DIERS Technology
Buy Now (Wiley Publishing)
OSHA (29 CFR 1910.119) has recognized AIChE/DIERS two-phase flow publications as examples of "good engineering practice" for process safety management of highly hazardous materials. The prediction of when two-phase flow venting will occur, and the applicability of various sizing methods for two-phase vapor-liquid flashing flow, is of particular interest when designing emergency relief systems to handle runaway reactions. This comprehensive sourcebook brings together a wealth of information on methods that can be used to safely size emergency relief systems for two-phase vapor-liquid flow for flashing or frozen, viscous or nonviscous fluids. Design methodologies are illustrated by selected sample problems. Written by industrial experts in the safety field, this book will be invaluable to those charged with operating, designing, or managing today's and tomorrow's chemical process industry facilities.

Proceedings of the International Symposium on Runaway Reactions and Pressure Relief Design
Can not be purchased on-line through AIChEPlease click here to order.
Storing, handling, processing, and transporting of reactive chemicals pose special challenges to the chemical process industries, since, under the wrong conditions, they can initiate "runaway" reactions that can have devastating results. If engineers can effectively estimate the potential reactivity hazards of a process before it is designed, they can build the necessary safety factors into the unit or plant. Proceedings of the International Symposium on Runaway Reactions and Pressure Relief Design adds to DIERS’ already rich data on this topic with 28 papers offering practical expertise on evaluating reactivity hazards, and using this data for scale-up and design of emergency relief systems. The 764-page hardcover volume is organized into five critical areas: experimental techniques for thermal hazards assessment; analytical/simplified tools for thermal hazards assessment and emergency relief system (ERS) design; elements of ERS design using DIERS technology; advanced ERS design; and mitigation design.

Proceedings of the Second International Symposium on Runaway Reactions, Pressure Relief Design and Effluent Handling
Can not be purchased on-line through AIChEPlease click here to order.
The DIERS Users Group organized the Second International Symposium on Runaway Reactions, Pressure Relief Design, and Effluent Handling to provide a summary of the research and technologies that are applicable to the control of runaway reaction hazards and the design of pressure relief and effluent handling systems. Proceedings from that conference are now available in this hardcover book, which address several aspects of chemical reactivity, pressure relief design, and effluent handling, including experimental techniques and analytical/simplified tools for thermal hazards assessment, and emergency relief system design. Titles include: "Assurance of Safe Pilot Plant Scale-up of Chemical Processes," "The Reactive System Screening Tool: An Easy, Inexpensive Approach to the DIERS Procedure," "The Effect of an External Fire on a Runaway Reaction," "Pressure Relief Requirements for Organic Peroxides and Other Related Compounds," and "Design of Scrubber System for Emergency Relief of a Large-Scale Petrochemical Plant."

SuperChems for DIERS Program and Documentation -- Please note that no discounts apply to this product.
Add to CartSuperChems for DIERS is an advanced software tool for pressure relief design. This new program replaces the SAFIRE computer program and incorporates the latest DIERS pressure relief design techniques and research findings. SuperChems for DIERS contains numerous productivity tools for engineers responsible for pressure relief design. Multiphase, reacting, and highly non-ideal systems can easily be modeled using SuperChems. Dynamic vessel simulations involving two-phase or all vapor flow can be performed in either design mode or rating mode. Complex arrangements of relief lines including multiple segments for inlet and outlet lines with relief valves and/or rupture disks can be rated for single phase or two-phase flow. SuperChems contains a large database of more than 1,200 industrial chemicals. SuperChems uses a spreadsheet-based interface for inputs and reporting results and users can work with their choice of units.
