Comparison of Hazard Potential of LPG Handling Units in GCU using Consequence Analysis
Abstract: The scope of this work was to quantitatively assess the risks involved in a section of a chemical process plant where LPG is produced using various consequence analysis models. The Gas Concentration Unit (GCU) was considered for the analysis as it produces a major portion of the LPG in a Petroleum Refinery. The Debutanizer, Stripper and HP (high pressure) Receiver, the three units which handle LPG, were considered for consequence …

Design Process Parameter of Thread Manufacturing Process Optimized by Fuzzy Logic Methodology
Abstract: The threads are most widely used in many industries. For the industries which produce the thread, it is a key skill to adopt the accurate and precise machining of threads because there are so many parameters which affect the dimensions of thread. The aim of the study is to generate the threads with the considerations of the parameters (hardness, blank diameter and surface roughness) which are to be used. Due …
