Understanding Explosions

Beschreibung

There are many different types of explosions, each with its owncomplex mechanism. Understanding explosions is important inpreventing them. This reference provides valuable information onexplosions for everyone involved in the operation, design,maintenance, and management of chemical processes, helping enhanceunderstanding of the nature of explosions and the practical methodsrequired to prevent them from occurring. The text includes: * Fundamental basis for explosions * Explosive and flammable behavior and characteristics ofmaterials * Different types of explosions * Fire and explosion hazard recognition * Practical methods for preventing explosions or minimizing thepotential consequences * Additional references Understanding Explosions provides a practical understandingof explosion fundamentals, including the different types ofexplosions, the explosive and flammable behavior of materials, andthe hazards related to fires and explosions. It also discussespractical methods to prevent and minimize the probability andconsequence of an explosion during routine use of flammable,combustible and/or reactive materials.
