    The HAZOP analysis identifies potential deviations in the hydrolysis process and recommends corrective actions. It analyzes the stirrer, heating jacket, flow, and pump. Five modifications are proposed: 1) Install a high-temperature shutdown system to automatically shut down the process if temperature is too high. 2) Periodically inspect the heating jacket. 3) Install a steam flowmeter and low-flow alarm. 4) Install a level control system in the reactor. 5) Install a temperature control system.

    The potential process modifications resulting from the review are the following:
    1. Install a high-temperature shutdown system. Where this system would automatically shut
    down the process in the event of a high reactor temperature.
    2. Periodically inspect the heating jacket to ensure its integrity.
    3. Install a steam flowmeter and low-flow alarm.
    4. Install a level control system in the reactor.
    5. Install a temperature control system.
