Recognized as the standard work for chemical and process engineering safety professionals and trusted for 30 years, it provides the most complete collection of information on the theory, practice, design elements, equipment, regulations and laws covering the field of process safety. An entire library of alternative books (and cross-referencing systems) would be needed to replace or improve upon it, but everything of importance to safety professionals, engineers and managers can be found in this all-encompassing three volume reference instead. The 5th edition is not just an update of previous editions but a complete reorganization and re-write to include all the known practices and fundamentals of process safety plus developing areas driven by technological advances and industry’s look to the future. It will have more breadth and depth than previous editions while being more concise.
The book will also be published in a digital format to make it fully searchable. Besides a wealth of references, it will have internal hyperlinks that interconnect relevant chapters.
It is divided into 3 Volumes:
Volume 1: Process Safety Practice (Design, Management and Operations)
Volume 2: Process Safety Science and Technology (Risk Assessment and Management and Underlying Science)
Volume 3: Process Safety Incidents and Their Learnings
