Introduction to Process Safety for Process Intensification and Modular Chemical Process Intensification

Important System Upgrade Notice

We're upgrading the AIChE eLearning system to deliver an improved user experience. Please complete any in-progress courses by 5PM US Eastern Time Friday December 12, 2025. Courses not completed by then may need to be restarted after Monday December 22, 2025. Repurchasing will not be required.

Process intensification is a newer approach to process design with many benefits, but like all chemical processes, there remains a need to fully understand the process risk profile.  This interactive online course introduces Risk-Based Process Safety (RBPS) concepts to those interested in developing intensified processes.

In this course, you’ll explore:

  • The concept of inherently safer design as a potential benefit for Modular Chemical Process Intensification
  • The process safety benefits of PI as well as areas needing additional analysis
  • A detailed example of Modular Chemical Process Intensification and a process safety benefits analysis
  • The key elements of RBPS requiring additional attention for intensified processes and how they can impact the risk profile of an operation

    In this course, you will learn how to:

    • The concept of inherently safer design as a potential benefit for Modular Chemical Process Intensification
    • The process safety benefits of PI as well as areas needing additional analysis
    • \A detailed example of Modular Chemical Process Intensification and a process safety benefits analysis
