PHAST examines the progress of a chemical process incident from initial
release through formation of a cloud or pool to final dispersion - calculating
concentration, fire radiation, toxicity and explosion overpressure. Due to its
reliability and outstanding technical superiority, PHAST is used by over 300
organisations world-wide. PHAST is owned by Det
Norske Veritas (DNV).
PHAST is a comprehensive hazard analysis package, applicable to all stages of
design and operation across a range of process and chemical industry sectors. It
is used to identify situations which present potential hazards to life, property
or the environment. Such scenarios may be removed by re-design of
the process or plant, or modification to existing operational procedures.
Scenarios which remain may be submitted to further analysis such as rigorous
risk assessment, where necessary, using more sophisticated QRA tools such as
SAFETI.
