    Layer of Protection Analysis (LOPA) for Nitroglycerine Production

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Shojaei, Saeed (Author) ; Rashtchian, Davood (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Nitroglycerine is an oily liquid and in pure form it is colorless. It is the main component of high explosives such as dynamites, and an essential ingredient of smokeless, double base propellants. The production of nitroglycerine has to solve the problems that arise from the extremely high mechanical sensitivity of the substance and the chemical instability of impure materials. Without sufficient control and mitigation of hazards, incidents have led to severe consequences, such as explosions, and threats to human lives, properties, and the environment. In this study, the hazard and operability study method is used to identify the existing hazards in the nitroglycerine production plant. Then,... 

    Handheld NIR Spectroscopy and Hyperspectral Imaging in Combination with Chemometrics for Determination of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient in Warfarin, Metformin and Nitroglycerin

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Bolhassani, Zahra (Author) ; Parastar Shahri, Hadi (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    With the expansion of the pharmaceutical market and the increasing likelihood of distributing substandard medicines, it is necessary to develop methods for rapid, timely, and non-destructive analysis. These methods should enable the assessment of qualitative features such as the amount of active substance and the homogeneous distribution of materials at various stages of drug manufacturing. In this regard, numerous studies have been conducted using spectroscopy and hyperspectral imaging, particularly in the visible and near-infrared regions. The challenge here is that active ingredients in medicine and excipients look very similar in this region. They're usually white powders, and the weak...
