Storing, handling, processing, and transporting of reactive chemicals pose special challenges to the chemical process industries, since under the wrong conditions, they can initiate "runaway" reactions that can have devastating results. If engineers can effectively estimate the potential reactivity hazards of a process before a process is designed, they can build the necessary safety factors into the unit or plant. Proceedings of the International Symposium on Runaway Reactions and Pressure Relief Design adds to DIERS' already rich data on this topic with 28 papers offering practical expertise on evaluating reactivity hazards and using this data for scale-up and design of emergency relief systems. The book is organized into five critical areas:

The DIERS Users Group organized the Third International Symposium on Runaway Reactions, Pressure Relief Design, and Effluent Handling.

This book is the proceedings of the Third International Symposium of Runaway Reactions, Pressure Relief Design and Effluent Handling. A theme of the conference is "Managing Chemical Reactivity with Confidence". The editors believe that the information in this book will prove useful to those who design or review emergency relief systems for both reactive and non-reactive scenarios. Topics include:

  • Pressure Relief Requirements for Organic Peroxides,
  • Sizing of Pressure Relief Devices and Associated Piping for Multiphase Flows,
  • An Easy to Use Two-Phase Flow Model Including Subcooling, Nonequilibrium, and Viscous Effects
  • Perspectives on Relief Valve Sizing for Two-Phase Flow and
  • Phenolic Runaway Reaction: Pressure Relief and Containment.

SuperChems for DIERS is an advanced software tool for pressure relief design. This new program replaces the SAFIRE computer program and incorporates the latest DIERS pressure relief design techniques and research findings.
SuperChems for DIERS contains many productivity tools for engineers responsible for pressure relief design. Multiphase, reacting, and highly non-ideal systems can easily be modeled using SuperChems. Dynamic vessel simulations involving two-phase or all vapor flow can be performed in either design mode or rating mode. Complex arrangements of relief lines including multiple segments for inlet and outlet lines with relief valves and/or rupture disks can be rated for single phase or two-phase flow. SuperChems contains a large database of more than 1,200 industrial chemicals. SuperChems uses a spreadsheet-based interface for inputs and reporting results and users can work with their choice of units.
