Fault detection and diagnosis for gas density monitoring using multivariate statistical process control by Norul Shahida, Che Din, Noor Asma Fazli, Abdul Samad, Chin, Sim Yee

“…Thus, modern chemical industries need to operate as fault free as possible because faults that present in a process increase the operating cost due to the increase in waste generation and products with undesired specifications. Effective monitoring strategy for early fault detection and diagnosis is very important not only from a safety and cost viewpoint, but also for the maintenance of yield and the product quality in a process as well. …”

The greening of terminal concessions in seaports by Notteboom, Theo, Lam, Jasmine Siu Lee

“…Not all instruments have the same likeliness of being embraced or implemented by port authorities, in part because of a low perceived contribution, high associated regulation costs, or simply because the port authority is unlikely to have jurisdiction in that specific area. Measures related to information reporting and some types of harm-based standards, design standards, and technology specifications are relatively easy to implement in a concession setting. …”
