background: the objectives of this paper are three folds. first, an integrated framework for designing and development of the integrated health, safety and environment (hse) model is presented. second, it is implemented and tested for a large gas refinery in iran. third, it is shown whether the total ergonomics model is superior to the conventional ergonomics approach. this study is among the f...

In this paper, reduced nonlinear refinery models are developed by generating and using input-output data from a process simulator. In particular, rigorous process models of continuous catalytic reformer (CCR) and nfaphtha splitter units are used for generating the data. To deal with complexity associated with large amounts of data, that is usually available in the refineries, a disaggregation-a...

Process monitoring within a refinery control room can be both daunting and listless. The workload of control room operators can fluctuate greatly over a short period of time. It would be ideal if systems could automatically detect these changes in workload so that both the computer system and those supervising are made aware of instances when an operator might be overloaded. While eye tracking ...
