Abstract
This article discusses two incidents, both of which occurred after process safety reviews had taken place. Certain key recommendations were made for inherently safer operations, but the people in charge had decided not to implement them. In this connection it is important to note the three P's of safety: Safety of People, Property, and Profits. Safety hazards in a process operation can involve any or all of these. The first incident involved safety of property and profits, i.e., significant losses in both; the second primarily involved safety of profits. Both incidents occurred well before the days of OSHA and EPA.
