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 …

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 …
