Safety in process industries is of utmost necessity to ensure protection from hazards. The aim of this book is to elucidate the hazards and preventive measures for a few of such specific industrial processes. Starting with overview of the prevalent industrial accidents, types of hazards and safety provisions, the book contains nineteen chapters with each one of them consisting of a unique case study comprising of basic causes, results and discussion, and protective measures to be adopted to overcome such situation. Topics covered include caprolactam storage tank accident, fire explosion accident caused by static electricity, and human factors risk and management in process safety and so forth. Aimed at researchers, professionals, graduate students in Chemical Engineering, Safety Management, Risk Assessment, Chemical Process Safety, this book:

Provides exhaustive coverage of industrial case studies on their hazards and safety issues in the process industry set-up.

Includes quantitative discussion on new and existing technologies and methodologies.

Explores high quality descriptive and quantified data for better visualization of each chapter.

Gives detailed description on various industrial accidents, their related consequences and available safety/preventive measures.

Discusses preventive measures taken by world class industries in their production plants.

Dr. Vikranth Volli is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Safety, Health and Environment, at National Yunlin University of Science and Technology (YunTech), Douliou, Taiwan. Before joining YunTech, he has received his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati and M.Tech from National Institute of Technology, Rourkela after completing his B.Tech in Chemical Engineering from Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University, Hyderabad, India. His research work is dedicated to studies relating the thermal behavior, oxidative stability, and hazard analysis of ionic liquids, agricultural residues, ester based lube, and commercial oils. He has also studied the synthesis of catalysts and value-added products from industrial wastes (fly ash and red mud) and their application in biodiesel production. He has published numerous research papers in international journals of repute.

Dr. Shu was a Distinguished Chair Professor and Academic Vice President of National Yunlin University of Science and Technology in Taiwan. He was the first Taiwanese professor to receive the North American Thermal Analysis Society (NATAS) Fellow Award (2011) for his technical service and professional contributions as a recognition of this important contribution. Furthermore, he was the first Taiwanese professor to be elected as an American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) Fellow in 2016 for technical service and professional contributions, followed by the NATAS Mettler Toledo Award, which is the highest honor in Thermal Analysis internationally for the year 2017. He was the 4th ethnic Chinese recipient in 50 years. In 2018, he obtained the two Fellows from the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) and The Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET. Dr. Shu also served as an editorial board member for various reputed science journals, such as PSP (Process Safety Progress, SCI), JSR (Journal of Safety Research, SSCI) and JLPPI (Journal of Loss Prevention in the Process Industries, SCI).
