Recent incidents at Terra Nitrogen in Billingham and the Buncefield Oil
Depot have highlighted the continued need for the prevention and
containment of accidents and emergencies within our process industries.
The Applied Control Technology Consortium (ACTC) has arranged a meeting
on the topic of "Managing Alarms & Abnormal Situations in the Process
Industries" which is being held on the 13th July 2006 in
Stallingborough, near Grimsby.
This meeting will demonstrate what is being done by both process
industry vendors and end-users to minimise any abnormal situations.
Plant systems, such as process control and monitoring systems, alarm
and operator advisory systems and emergency shut-down systems, all need
to function correctly and work together to make any response to a
crisis situation as effective as possible.
Full details of this event, including agenda, can be found at:

People from ACTC member companies can attend free of charge. University
researchers, IET/IEE Control PN Member, or IChemE Process Control
Subject Group Member are all entitled to a discounts. See the above
web-page for details.
