Risk Assessment of Nitration Process Using HAZOP and Fault Tree
Abstract: The present study addresses the safety issues associated with the nitration reactions. Since the nitration reaction is highly exothermic in nature exhibiting intense heat during the operation and may explode if wrongly handled, the risk assessment of nitration reaction is absolutely necessary. In the present work, the production of Ortho Nitro Chloro Benzene (ONCB) and Para Nitro Chloro Benzene (PNCB) is considered to perform the risk assessment of the nitration …

Risk Assessment of Batch Sulfonation Process using Fault Tree and Bowtie
Abstract: The current study looks into the batch reactor's sulfonation reaction's safety features. Acetanilide, thionyl chloride, and chlorosulphonic acid are used in the sulfonation reaction under consideration to generate acetyl sulphonyl chloride as well as by-products such HCl and SOx. Steam starts the process, which is exothermic in nature. Water is then chilled to maintain a temperature of 50°C and a pressure of one atmosphere. The Hazard and Operability (HAZOP) analysis …

Risk Management in Civil Engineering by FTA, FMEA and Risk Matrix
Abstract: Infrastructure projects, particularly in civil engineering, are fraught with uncertainties that manifest as both physical and financial risks. The project report, titled Quantifying and Managing Financial and Physical Risks in Infrastructure Projects, aims to bridge the existing gap between managing these two critical categories of risks. By integrating advanced statistical methodologies such as Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), Risk Matrix, and Regression Analysis, this study …

An Overview on AI-Driven IoT Based Decision Making in Climate change Study: KSK approach in Climate Change Study
Abstract: As the Earth’s climate enters a state of unprecedented volatility, the traditional methods of ecological observation—characterized by delayed reporting and fragmented data—are no longer sufficient. This study investigates the paradigm shift toward AI-driven IoT (KSK Approach)-based decision-making frameworks as the primary frontier in climate science. By deploying a "planetary nervous system" of interconnected sensors—measuring everything from soil moisture in the Sahel to glacial melt rates in the Arctic—we generate a …
