Elements of Industrial Hazards : Health, Safety, Environment and Loss Prevention

This volume is an introductory course on health, safety, and environment (HSE) as applicable to all manufacturing and exploration engineering industries. The first part explores the fundamentals of ecology and environmental engineering. It covers air and water pollution sources, measuring techniques, and remedial measures to minimize the effects of these toxins. The second part discusses industrial hazards, health, and safety, and includes standards, strategies, risk assessment, and accident analysis. Finally, it examines eight elements of HSE management — currently a critical activity for virtually any engineering business.

An introductory course on Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) as applicable to all manufacturing and exploration engineering industries. Its first part deals with fundamentals, ecology and environmental engineering and covers air and water pollution sources, magnitude, measuring techniques and remedial measures to minimize them. The second part deals with industrial hazards, health and safety. It includes standards, strategies, risk assessment and accident analysis. The last part treats eight elements of HSE management, which is currently a critical activity for virtually any engineering business. Intended for a wide audience active in the engineering industry, ranging from the plant supervisor to HSE consultants to operators in the field.
