Process Hazard Analysis - Hazop

This document summarizes a process hazard analysis for a blending operation. It identifies 9 potential process steps involving hazards, lists the potential hazards and failure modes for each step, rates the severity of potential failures from 1-10, identifies potential causes of hazards and failures, and evaluates current process controls and detection measures for each step on a scale of 1-10. The goal is to analyze hazards and improve safety for the blending process.
