Safety monitoring and management system for fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) process

Procedures of Hazard identification, risk evaluation and information collection of the FCC process are presented for the design and development of a safety monitoring and management system. A novel structure of the safety monitoring system is proposed. Design and realization of comprehensive functions that the safety system should perform, which cover real-time parameters monitoring, safety analysis, safety information fusion, video monitoring, early-warning, dynamic safety management, etc, is explored in detail. Application of the proposed system shows that the system provides a systematic, comprehensive real-time analysis, monitoring, early-warning and management of overall process safety and steady operation.
