Wiley-AIChE (Verlag)
978-0-470-63524-7 (ISBN)
The first part of this book (Chapters 1 and 2) provides an introduction and discusses basic concepts. Chapter 3 deals with the use of the basic human senses for identifying hazards.
Chapter 4 deals with different classes and categories of hazards.
Chapter 5 deals with techniques and methodologies for identifying and evaluating hazards.
Chapter 6 deals with making risk based decisions.
Chapter 7 deals with follow-up and call to action.
Chapter 8 deals with learning and continuous improvement.
The Appendices provide references, case studies, hazard presentations and additional pictures.
Note: CD-ROM/DVD and other supplementary materials are not included as part of eBook file.
THE CENTER FOR CHEMICAL PROCESS SAFETY (CCPS) was established by AIChE in 1985 to study and develop engineering and management practices that help prevent or mitigate catastrophic process safety accidents. CCPS publications provide the latest guidelines for the production, storage, and handling of flammable, explosive, and reactive materials. With the help of CCPS, companies can operate facilities safely and measure their own practices against today's most accepted industry practices.
