The #1 Process Safety Guide, Now Extensively Updated for Current Industrial Processes, Systems, and Practices

Process safety has seen a dramatic consolidation of concepts in the past few years. Chemical Process Safety, Fourth Edition, provides students and working engineers with the understanding necessary to apply these new concepts to safely design and operate any process.

Long the definitive guide in the field, this edition fully reflects major recent advances in process safety technology and practice. Readers will find extensive new and updated coverage of relief sizing, hazards identification, risk assessment, and many other topics. Several chapters have been completely rewritten, and all are substantially modified. This textbook includes 50 new problems and solutions (mostly in SI units), and 25 new case histories.
Crowl and Louvar link key academic concepts to modern industrial practice, making this guide invaluable for all engineering students and for all working engineers.

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.
