Crises in Oil, Gas and Petrochemical Industries: Loss Prevention and Disaster Management, Volume Two provides an overview of both natural and manmade disasters occurring in oil, gas and petrochemical industries and prepares special solutions based on their types. The book focuses on loss prevention and disaster management in petrochemical industries from different points-of-view. Sections review methods for making the apparatus safer and continue with discussions on the process of facing and managing disasters during the occurrence. Final sections cover loss and economic analysis after disasters and methods of reversibility are presented with case studies from around the world.

Prof. Mohammad Reza Rahimpour is a professor in Chemical Engineering at Shiraz University, Iran. He received his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from Shiraz University joint with University of Sydney, Australia 1988. He started his independent career as Assistant Professor in September 1998 at Shiraz University. Prof. M.R. Rahimpour, was a Research Associate at University of California, Davis from 2012 till 2017. During his stay in University of California, he developed different reaction networks and catalytic processes such as thermal and plasma reactors for upgrading of lignin bio-oil to biofuel with collaboration of UCDAVIS. He has been a Chair of Department of Chemical Engineering at Shiraz University from 2005 till 2009 and from 2015 till 2020. Prof. M.R. Rahimpour leads a research group in fuel processing technology focused on the catalytic conversion of fossil fuels such as natural gas, and renewable fuels such as bio-oils derived from lignin to valuable energy sources. He provides young distinguished scholars with perfect educational opportunities in both experimental methods and theoretical tools in developing countries to investigate in-depth research in the various field of chemical engineering including carbon capture, chemical looping, membrane separation, storage and utilization technologies, novel technologies for natural gas conversion and improving the energy efficiency in the production and use of natural gas industries. Dr Babak Omidvar is an associate professor at the University of Tehran. He received his Ph.D. in Civil Engineering from the Faculty of Engineering, University of Tehran in 2001. He started his work as Assistant Professor in September 2002 at the graduate Faculty of Environment, University of Tehran. His research interests are resilience, risk and reliability analysis in various fields of urban areas and infrastructures. The courses he teaches at the University of Tehran include “Disaster resistant structures”, “Loss estimation studies”, “Infrastructure protection against natural disasters”, “Vulnerability assessment”, “Risk analysis and management”, “Resilience engineering”, “Environmental statistics”, “Environmental economics”, “Reliability in water resource management” and “Engineering Mathematics”. His recent research focus is on robust optimization, deep uncertainty, decision making under uncertainty, infrastructure performance assessment considering inter- and intra- dependencies, catastrophe theory, complex systems, network analysis and Multi-hazards analysis which all of them are used in natural disaster engineering and management category. In this regard, he has conducted many research studies and supervised more than 180 national and international graduate students in performing their Ph.D. and MSc theses. Nazanin Abrishami Shirazi is a PhD Candidates at University of Tehran. Her focus is on vulnerability assessment in various fields including engineering apparatus and materials, and finding proper solutions for crisis prevention and environmental side effects management. Recently he has collaborated in writing and editing various scientific works including book chapters with prestigious publishers such Elsevier and Springer. Dr. Mohammad Amin Makarem is a research associate at Shiraz University. His research interests are gas separation and purification, nanofluids, microfluidics, catalyst synthesis, reactor design and green energy. In gas separation, his focus is on experimental and theoretical investigation and optimization of pressure swing adsorption process, and in the gas purification field, he is working on novel technologies such as microchannels. Recently, he has investigated methods of synthesizing bio-template nanomaterials and catalysts. Besides, he has collaborated in writing and editing various books and book-chapters for famous publishers such as Elsevier, Springer and Wiley, as well as guest editing journals special issues.
