1-2. Three process units are in a plant. The units have FARs of 0.5, 0.3, and 1.0, respectively. (a) What is the overall FAR for the plant, assuming worker exposure to all three units simultaneously? (b) Assume now that the units are far enough apart that an accident in one would not affect the workers in another. If a worker spends 20% of his time in process area 1, 40% in process area 2, and 40% in process area 3, what is his overall FAR?

This is often considered the hardest part of the curriculum. The manual breaks down the calculation of the required relief area ( (a) What is the overall FAR for the
The 4th edition of Chemical Process Safety equips future engineers with the tools necessary to prevent industrial disasters. The accompanying solution manual serves as the ultimate sounding board, transforming abstract mathematical equations into concrete, actionable safety designs. By using this resource to master source modeling, dispersion, and relief sizing, you prepare yourself to design inherently safer chemical plants and protect both workers and the environment.
