The present day industrial environment demands increased production, nigh efficiency, control of costs, stringent quality controls, etc. Chemical processes have become complex and capital intensive. Outages in plants can be hardly tolerated. To meet such needs of industries, the subject of safety has attained significant importance. Any neglect in these aspects can prove wry costly. The engineers are therefore expected to have first hand knowledge of this subject. Keeping this requirement in view, an attempt has been made to present basic information about safety in chemical and process industries in this book.
