Chemical Processing

Compliance verification built for chemical processing.

Skyello enforces regulatory obligations across every process unit, every chemical service, and every shift — connecting RMP, PSM, TSCA, and environmental requirements to field execution with full citation traceability.

The problem

Chemical plants operate under more overlapping regulations than almost any other industrial environment.

01

Overlapping regulatory frameworks

A single facility can be governed simultaneously by OSHA PSM, EPA RMP, TSCA, RCRA, EPCRA, Clean Air Act permits, Clean Water Act permits, state-level chemical safety rules, and facility-specific consent decrees — each with its own inspection schedules and reporting timelines.

02

Equipment × chemical complexity

Compliance requirements change based on both the equipment type and the chemical it handles. A storage tank's inspection criteria depend on the substance inside it. A reactor's requirements depend on the process chemistry, operating conditions, and hazard profile of the materials involved.

03

Management of Change cascades

When a process is modified — new feedstock, adjusted parameters, equipment substitution — the compliance implications cascade across PSM, RMP, environmental permits, and potentially TSCA reporting. Most facilities track these cascading effects manually, if at all.

04

Fragmented field execution

Contract operators rotate. Shift teams interpret requirements differently. Paper forms and disconnected systems can't trace a finding back to the specific regulation, the specific chemical service, or the specific process condition that required it.

The platform

One platform for every framework, every chemical service, every process unit.

01

Regulatory ingestion

Skyello parses the full regulatory stack — PSM documentation, RMP submissions, TSCA recordkeeping requirements, RCRA waste handling mandates, EPCRA reporting obligations, environmental permits, consent decrees, and facility-specific SOPs. Every obligation is extracted into a machine-executable rule that retains its regulatory source. When regulations change or permits are updated, rules propagate automatically.

Regulatory Documents — Ingested
PSM Process_Hazard_Analysis_Unit_A.pdf 247 rules
RMP RMP_Submission_2024.pdf 89 rules
TSCA Chemical_Inventory_Report.xlsx 36 rules
RCRA Waste_Handling_Procedures.docx Processing...
EPA Consent_Decree_2023.pdf 124 rules
02

Chemical-aware compliance logic

Inspection requirements are generated based on the intersection of the equipment type and the chemical service it operates in. A storage tank holding a TSCA-regulated substance triggers different inspection criteria than the same tank type holding a non-regulated intermediate. The compliance checklist is always specific to what the equipment is doing and what it contains.

Rule Engine — Chemical Service Comparison
TK-301 · Storage Tank TSCA-regulated
TSCA §8(a) Chemical inventory reporting
40 CFR 68.67 RMP hazard review
RCRA §262.34 Accumulation time limits
PSM §1910.119(j) Mechanical integrity
12 inspection criteria
TK-302 · Storage Tank Non-regulated
PSM §1910.119(j) Mechanical integrity
API 653 Tank inspection
4 inspection criteria

Management of Change tracking

When a process modification is entered, Skyello identifies every compliance obligation affected across every applicable regulatory framework. A feedstock substitution that introduces a new TSCA-listed substance automatically triggers updated inspection requirements, adjusts RMP documentation flags, and surfaces any environmental permit conditions affected by the change.

MOC Impact Analysis — #MOC-2025-047 Active
Change Feedstock substitution: Toluene → Xylene (Unit B reactor R-201)
PSM PHA update required — new hazard profile
RMP Worst-case scenario recalculation triggered
TSCA Xylene inventory reporting — new substance
CAA VOC emission permit limits — verify compliance
EPCRA Tier II threshold not exceeded — no action
5 frameworks assessed · 4 actions required · 1 no-action

Process Safety Information integration

Skyello ingests and indexes Process Safety Information — chemical hazard data, process flow diagrams, equipment design specifications, operating procedures, and safety system documentation. PSI is linked directly to compliance rules, ensuring inspection criteria reflect current process conditions. When PSI is updated, affected compliance obligations are automatically surfaced.

Process Safety Information — R-201

Process Flow Diagram — Unit B → Linked to 14 inspection rules

Safety Data Sheet — Toluene → Linked to 8 hazard rules

Field inspection

Inspectors execute chemical-service-specific inspections on ruggedized mobile devices. Every checklist item maps to the regulation requiring it, the chemical service the asset is in, and the process unit it belongs to. Findings are captured with timestamped photographic evidence, GPS coordinates, and inspector verification. Offline-capable for areas with no connectivity.

Compliance dashboard

Compliance status is tracked continuously across every process unit, every regulatory framework, and every chemical service. Reports are generated with full regulatory citations linking every finding to the specific rule, the specific chemical, and the specific process condition that required the inspection.

What changes

Before and after Skyello.

Before

Compliance obligations tracked separately for each regulatory framework in disconnected systems.

After

Every obligation from every framework unified in a single platform, linked to the specific asset and chemical service it applies to.

Before

Management of Change triggers manual cross-referencing across PSM, RMP, environmental permits, and TSCA records.

After

Process changes automatically surface every affected compliance obligation across every applicable framework.

Before

Inspection checklists are generic to equipment type regardless of what chemical the equipment handles.

After

Every checklist reflects the specific regulatory requirements for the intersection of the equipment and its chemical service.

Before

Process Safety Information lives in binders and shared drives, disconnected from the inspection program.

After

PSI is indexed, linked to compliance rules, and automatically flagged when updates affect inspection requirements.

Before

Audit preparation means weeks of cross-referencing paper records against multiple regulatory frameworks.

After

Every record is audit-ready from the moment it's created, with full citations to the specific regulation, chemical, and process condition.
