<b>The Leading Guide To Process Safety Now Extensively Updated For Today’s Processes And Systems <p> </p> </b> <p> </p> <p>As chemical processes have grown more complex, so have the safety systems required to prevent accidents. <i> <b>Chemical Process Safety, Third Edition, </b> </i>offers students and practitioners a more fundamental understanding of safety and the application required to safely design and manage today’s sophisticated processes.</p> <p> <br /> </p> <p>The third edition continues the definitive standard of the previous editions. The content has been extensively updated to today’s techniques and procedures, and two new chapters have been added. A new chapter on chemical reactivity provides the information necessary to identify, characterize, control, and manage reactive chemical hazards. A new chapter on safety procedures and designs includes new content on safely management, and specific procedures including hot work permits, lock-tag-try, and vessel entry.</p> <p> </p> <p>Subjects Include</p> <ul> <li>Inherently safer design</li> <li>Toxicology and industrial hygiene</li> <li>Toxic release and dispersion models</li> <li>Fires and explosions, and how to prevent them</li> <li>Reliefs and relief sizing</li> <li>Hazard identification</li> <li>Risk assessment</li> <li>Safe designs and procedures</li> <li>Case histories</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p> <b> <i>Chemical Process Safety, Third Edition,</i> </b> is an ideal reference for professionals. It can be used for both graduate and undergraduate instruction. This edition contains more than 480 end-of-chapter problems. A solutions manual is available for instructors.</p>
