Many chemical engineering graduates leave university with limited practical experience, including in the important field of process safety. Authored by two veterans of industry, this book provides early career engineers with a strong practical background in process safety. It contains basic theory to bolster an understanding of the subject, whilst the bulk of the book gives practical information covering both design and operation of process plants. It offers an interactive approach, with frequent links between chapters and inclusion of numerous case histories to illustrate and support the text.
Key Features:

• Serves as a simple introduction with a bias towards practical and realistic solutions
• Discusses a wide range of safety-related subjects with comprehensive links to more detailed references
• Covers both design and operation of plants
• Features a significant number of brief case histories to offer real-world context, many of which have not been published elsewhere

With its accessible and hands-on approach, this book gives early career chemical engineers a deeper understanding of the issues they will face whilst on the job and practical solutions to address and avoid problems. The book’s many case studies will also be of value to more experienced engineers.
