When used appropriately, it provides a rational basis for evaluating process safety and comparing alternative safety improvements. This guide, an update of an earlier American Chemistry Council (ACC) publication utilizing the \"hands-on\" experience of CPI risk assessment practitioners and safety professionals involved with the CCPS and ACC, explains how managers and users can make better-informed decisions about QRA, and how plant engineers and process designers can better understand, interpret and use the results of a QRA in their plant.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eList of Figures.\u003c\/b\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eList of Tables.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePreface.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAcknowledgments.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eExecutive Summary.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAdvice for the Reader.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAcronyms.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGlossary.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 1.
