Basics
- A Design Principle where not only is there an effort to prevent an accident, but to reduce the consequences if should one occur
- Method
- Substitute: replacing one material with another that is less hazardous
- Minimize: reducing the amount of hazardous material in the process
- Moderate: using less hazardous process conditions such as lower pressures or temperatures
- Simplify: designing processes to be less complicated, and therefore less prone to failure. (See KISS / Points of Failure )
