The e-book is a advisor for Layers of safeguard research (LOPA) practitioners.   It explains the onion pores and skin version and specifically, the way it pertains to using LOPA and the necessity for non-safety instrumented autonomous security layers. It offers particular information on autonomous safety Layers (IPLs) that aren't defense Instrumented structures (SIS).  utilizing the LOPA method, businesses mostly take credits for hazard rate reductions entire via non-SIS possible choices; i.e. administrative methods, gear layout, etc.   It addresses concerns comparable to the best way to make sure the effectiveness and continue reliability for administrative controls or “inherently more secure, passive” recommendations.

This ebook will deal with how the fields of Human Reliability research, Fault Tree research, Inherent safeguard, Audits and tests, upkeep, and Emergency reaction relate to LOPA and SIS. 

The e-book will separate IPL’s into different types reminiscent of the following:

  1. Inherent protection
    • eliminates a situation or essentially reduces a hazard
  2. Preventive/Proactive
    • prevents beginning occasion from taking place reminiscent of more suitable maintenance
  3. Preventive/Active
    • stops chain of occasions after beginning occasion happens yet earlier than an incident has happened equivalent to excessive point in a tank shutting off the pump.
  4. Mitigation (active or passive)
    • minimizes effect as soon as an incident has happened corresponding to remaining block valves as soon as LEL is detected within the dike (active) or the dike combating illness of groundwater (passive).
