Casson Moreno V., Giacomini E., Cozzani V., 2016, Identification of Major Accident Hazards in Industrial Biological Processes, Chemical Engineering Transactions, 48, 679-684.
The present work focuses on process safety related to bioprocess engineering, meant as the integration between chemical engineering and biotechnology. A specific checklist has been created in order to perform a first step in bioprocesses hazard identification aimed at meeting not only personnel safety issues, but also process safety ones. The bioprocess of biogas production from anaerobic digestion of livestock slurry was taken as a case study to show the methodology.
