Practical Guide to Industrial Safety- Methods for Process Safety Professionals by Nicholas P. Cheremisinoff. This book has been written for process safety professionals. The intent of the volume is to provide supplemental information to assist safety specialists in managing operations in industrial settings. The subject areas covered highlight some of the more important health and safety problems involved in the chemical and allied industries. It is not intended as a handbook, and indeed many safety subjects such as hearing protection, back injuries, and stress fatigue are not covered. Instead, the book concentrates on areas of high-risk personal exposure, with emphasis on inhalation hazards and direct chemical exposure.
