Abstract

Handbook for Laboratory Safety provides insights into what you should expect when you enter a laboratory, along with how to behave in these specialized work environments. It is a practical book that can be used as a general introduction to laboratory safety, but also works as a resource for employees or students who do laboratory work. Students could carry this book in their backpack, whereas university/institute/company laboratories could place the book in every laboratory as a reference. This book is also ideally suited for essential courses for students, (new) employees or laboratory technicians who are starting their work in a laboratory environment.

Abstract

Aimed at students and professionals, this book provides an overview of the science and technology of the downstream sector of the oil and gas industry. Topics include the refining of crude oil and other feedstocks – including renewables – into fuels and lubricants. They also describe the conversion of simple chemicals into solvents, polymers, fibers, rubbers, coatings, and myriad other products, including pharmaceuticals. In addition to drawing on the authors' previous books, it includes teaching material from several courses. These include workshops provided for top refining companies and a highly rated course taught at the Florida A&M University/Florida State University (USA).

Abstract

Quatrième de couverture : "Cette troisième édition, entièrement actualisée et considérablement augmentée pour prendre en compte la plupart des risques présents dans les laboratoires, intègre les nouvelles exigences réglementaires françaises et européennes et tient compte de l’évolution des connaissances dans le domaine des risques professionnels. Elle conserve les qualités et les principes fondamentaux qui ont fait le succès international des deux premières éditions du « Picot-Grenouillet ». La multiplicité des produits et des activités qui se côtoient dans un établissement de recherche engendre des risques spécifiques, « Sécurité et prévention des risques au laboratoire de chimie et de biologie », traite ces risques dans leur globalité par une approche scientifique et, pour mieux les appréhender et les maîtriser, cet ouvrage apporte des solutions de prévention appropriées et concrètes. Les deux coordonnateurs André Picot et Jean Ducret se sont entourés d’une équipe multidisciplinaire de scientifiques éminemment compétents qui ont su mettre en commun leurs connaissances pour élaborer un recueil de bonnes pratiques de manipulation et de protection de la santé des opérateurs, sans oublier les protocoles de neutralisation des produits chimiques dangereux qui seront utiles pour réduire les risques relatifs à la manipulation et au transport des déchets chimiques. Un index en facilite l’utilisation et permet la recherche de données spécifiques. Cet ouvrage de référence incontournable s’adresse tout particulièrement à l’ensemble des personnels des laboratoires de recherche ou d’analyse. Chercheurs, ingénieurs, techniciens, mais aussi ingénieurs de sécurité, médecins de prévention et du travail, conseillers et assistants de prévention, hygiénistes et, d’une façon générale, tout encadrant, y trouveront des réponses concrètes aux situations à risques rencontrées dans ces laboratoires."

Abstract

This book presents a theoretical framework for the quantitative calculation of casualties and damage from jet fires caused by high-pressure gas leaks in pressure vessels or pipelines. The framework incorporates gas leakage models, combustion dynamics models, thermal radiation models, and thermal damage criteria. It conducts sensitivity and uncertainty analyses for the input parameters of the theoretical framework. The robustness of the theoretical framework is verified through field tests. Ultimately, the theoretical framework is used to quantitatively analyze the accidents involving jet fires due to the rupture of natural gas transmission pipelines. The sub-models within the theoretical framework are developed using the fundamental principles of thermodynamics, combustion, fluid dynamics, and heat transfer, and have been validated by small-scale laboratory tests. However, the theoretical framework receives the validation of field tests and real-world case studies. The theoretical deductions in this book offer significant guidance for scaling up from the laboratory experiments to field applications. The book is intended for anyone interested in understanding the risks associated with gas leaks and jet fires. The methodology enables the calculation of hazards for specific processes in isolation or their integration to assess overall consequences.

Abstract

Aimed at students and professionals, this book provides an overview of the science and technology of the upstream/midstream sectors of the oil and gas industry. Topics include the origin of fossil hydrocarbons and their chemical/physical properties; discovering hydrocarbon reserves; recovering oil, gas and bitumen; and purifying natural gas and process offgas. The chapter on safety and the environment convers safety regulations and environmental laws. It highlights learnings from major accidents. In addition to drawing on the authors' previous books, it includes teaching material from several courses. These include workshops provided for top petroleum companies and a highly rated course taught at the Florida A&M University/Florida State University (USA).
