As the text book for chemical engineering student at ITB, this book is describe more deeper on calculation and analysis rather than philosophy as of Fundamental of Process Safety. A rigorous calculation on dispersion analysis, source model, explosion analysis, and relief load of the pressure safety valve, is described in a detail manner.

I have bought this book with a discount of 20% when i went to National Univercity Singapore on October 2004. It is precious to be collected if you choose your career in process safety engineer just like me.
