Elements of Industrial Hazards: Health, Safety, Environment and Loss Prevention
The ever growing industrialization increases the generation of gaseous emissions, liquid effluents, solid wastes, radiations, particulate-matters, heat and noise. Associated with these are hazards such as fires, explosions, inundation, accidents, disasters and few others. These are detrimental to health and to the biotic and abiotic components of nature, which result in growing health-problems of the world's citizens and global issues such as acid rain, ozone depletion, photochemical smog, acid mine drainage and global warming.
This volume provides an introduction on Health Safety Environment (HSE) and Loss prevention as generally applicable to all industrial plant engineering disciplines. It deals with the fundamentals of ecology and environmental engineering and covers air and water pollutions. This book introduces the various elements concering industrial hazards, occupational health and safety. It includes standards, strategies, risk assessment and accident analysis and also presents the eight elements of HSE management.
Elements of Industrial Hazards is suitable for a wide audience active in the engineering work field, ranging from the plant supervisor to HSE consultants to operators in the field apart from providing a comprehensive text to the undergraduate and graduate students in Engineering, Occupational Health and Safety (OHS), Earth science and Geology.
