Purpose: To mix feed stream 4, 5 and 6 before entering to the reactor 1.
Objective: To ensure all of the reactants being mixed together before reactor.
Table 7.2: Control system for Mixer 1 Control variables Disturbances Action Set Point Flow rates of stream 4,5 and 6 entering the mixer Temperature and flow of effluent Control flow rate of stream 4,5 and 6 by control valve Total flow rate entering mixer 1 = 1932.71 kmol/hr
HAZOP Studies On Reactor 1- 'Reaction'
Key Word Deviation Possible Causes Consequences Action Required NO Reaction - Catalyst fails to operate - Low temperature and pressure - Lack of feed materials -No products -Reactants build-up - Recover catalyst on time - Train operator to handle the problem - Install temperature indicator -Install feed stream flow rate indicator MORE Reaction - Temperature too high - More reactants -Hot spots -Explosions -Loss of control - Install feed stream control valve - Install HTA LESS Reaction - Less catalyst to operate -As NO - As NO
