  • Safety in Design

    John Wiley & Sons Inc Safety in Design

    4 in stock

    Book SynopsisExpert insight and guidance on integrating safety into design to significantly reduce risks to people, systems, property, and communities Safe designrefers to the integration of hazard identification and risk assessment methods early in thedesignprocess so as to eliminate or minimize the risks of catastrophic failure throughout the life of a system, process, product, or service. This bookprovides engineers, designers, scientists and governmental officialswith the knowledge and tools needed to seamlessly incorporate safety intothe design of civil, industrial, and agricultural installations, as well as transportation systems, so as to minimize the risk of accidents and injuries. The methodology described in Safety in Design originates from the continuous safeguarding techniques first developed in the chemical industry and can successfully be applied to a range of industrial and civil settings. While the author focuses mainly on the aspects of safe design, he also addresses procedures which have a proven track record of preventing and alleviating the impacts of accidents with existing designs. He shares lessons learned from his nearly half-century of experience in the field and provides accounts of mishaps which could have been prevented, or significantly mitigated, based on data collected from approximately seventy incidents that have occurred in various countries. Describes the application of safe design in an array of fields, including the chemical industry, transportation, farming, the building trade, and leisure Reviews the history of intrinsic process safeguarding, which was first used in the chemical industry to minimize the risk of human error or instrumentation failure Describes dozens of preventable incidents to illustrate the critical role safe design can play Provides expert guidance and valuable tools for seamlessly weaving safety into every phase of the design process Safety in Design is an indispensable working resource for chemical, civil, mechanical, risk, and safety engineers, as well as professional R&D scientists, and process safety professionals. It is also a useful reference for insurers who deal with catastrophic loss potentials, and for government personnel who regulate or monitor industrial plants and procedures, traffic systems, and more.Table of ContentsPreface xi Acknowledgments xiii 1 Introduction 1 1.1 Introduction 1 1.2 Intrinsic Continuous Process Safeguarding 1 1.3 The Flixborough Accident in the United Kingdom in 1974 2

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisUp-to-date and thorough coverage of the causes, repercussions, and prevention of dust explosions and fires by one of the most well-respected environmental scientists and worker safety litigation specialists in the world This handy volume is a ready go to reference for the chemical engineer, plant manager, process engineer, or chemist working in industrial settings where dust explosions could be a concern, such as the process industries, coal industry, metal industry, and others. Though dust explosions have been around since the Earth first formed, and they have been studied and written about since the 1500s, they are still an ongoing concern and occur almost daily somewhere in the world, from bakeries to fertilizer plants. Dust explosions can have devastating consequences, and, recently, there have been new industrial standards and guidelines that reflect safer, more reasonable methods for dealing with materials to prevent dust explosions and resultant fires.

  • Safety and Biological Effects in MRI

    John Wiley & Sons Inc Safety and Biological Effects in MRI

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisIn vivo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has evolved into a versatile and critical, if not gold standard', imaging tool with applications ranging from the physical sciences to the clinical -ology'. In addition, there is a vast amount of accumulated but unpublished inside knowledge on what is needed to perform a safe, in vivo MRI. The goal of this comprehensive text, written by an outstanding group of world experts, is to present information about the effect of the MRI environment on the human body, and tools and methods to quantify such effects. By presenting such information all in one place, the expectation is that this book will help everyone interested in the Safety and Biological Effects in MRI find relevant information relatively quickly and know where we stand as a community. The information is expected to improve patient safety in the MR scanners of today, and facilitate developing faster, more powerful, yet safer MR scanners of tomorrow. This book is arranged in three sections. The first, named Static and Gradient Fields' (Chapters 1-9), presents the effects of static magnetic field and the gradients of magnetic field, in time and space, on the human body. The second section, named Radiofrequency Fields' (Chapters 10-30), presents ways to quantify radiofrequency (RF) field induced heating in patients undergoing MRI. The effect of the three fields of MRI environment (i.e. Static Magnetic Field, Time-varying Gradient Magnetic Field, and RF Field) on medical devices, that may be carried into the environment with patients, is also included. Finally, the third section, named Engineering' (chapters 31-35), presents the basic background engineering information regarding the equipment (i.e. superconducting magnets, gradient coils, and RF coils) that produce the Static Magnetic Field, Time-varying Gradient Magnetic Field, and RF Field. The book is intended for undergraduate and post-graduate students, engineers, physicists, biologists, clinicians, MR technologists, other healthcare professionals, and everyone else who might be interested in looking into the role of MRI environment on patient safety, as well as those just wishing to update their knowledge of the state of MRI safety. Those, who are learning about MRI or training in magnetic resonance in medicine, will find the book a useful compendium of the current state of the art of the field.

    Book SynopsisThe two chapters in Volume 83 describe reactions that represent two major (and growing) franchises in the Organic Reactions series, namely, transition metal catalyzed cross-coupling reactions and multicomponent reactions. These two processes not only have a rich history in synthetic organic chemistry, but also represent some of the most commonly employed transformations in the modern practice of molecule construction. The first chapter authored by Eiichi Nakamura, Takuji Hatakeyama, Shingo Ito, Kentaro Ishizuka, Laurean Ilies, and Masaharu Nakamura describes one of the most exiting advances in the field of transition metal catalyzed cross-coupling reactions: the use of iron catalysts. The second chapter authored by Stephen G. Pyne and Minyan Tang describes the latest in a long line of multicomponent reactions published in this series: the boronic acid Mannich reaction, sometimes called the Petasis reaction.Table of ContentsCHAPTER PAGE 1.

  • Ligand Design in Metal Chemistry

    John Wiley & Sons Inc Ligand Design in Metal Chemistry

    Book SynopsisThe design of ancillary ligands used to modify the structural and reactivity properties of metal complexes has evolved into a rapidly expanding sub-discipline in inorganic and organometallic chemistry. Ancillary ligand design has figured directly in the discovery of new bonding motifs and stoichiometric reactivity, as well as in the development of new catalytic protocols that have had widespread positive impact on chemical synthesis on benchtop and industrial scales. Ligand Design in Metal Chemistry presents a collection of cutting-edge contributions from leaders in the field of ligand design, encompassing a broad spectrum of ancillary ligand classes and reactivity applications. Topics covered include: Key concepts in ligand design Redox non-innocent ligands Ligands for selective alkene metathesis Ligands in cross-coupling Ligand design in polymerization Ligand design in modern lanthanide chemistry CoopTrade Review"Catalysis underpins both modern industrial and academic chemistry, improving reaction sustainability, shaping reaction selectivity and facilitating fundamentally new reaction pathways. While the focus is often on the showpiece metals themselves, the ligands are the true shapers of this reactivity. Stradiotto and Lundgren have curated a collection that certainly celebrates ligands across a wide array of applications. At over 400 pages across 13 chapters written by world leaders in catalysis and ligand design, the book is a modern resource for those working in the area. The book opens with a chapter detailing the underlying key concepts that feature throughout the rest of the book. This is likely the only chapter which would serve the undergraduate student – but as a stand-alone chapter would indeed provide a strong additional resource for final year students on a catalysis and/or coordination chemistry course. From there, each chapter captures a specific vignette of relevance to the authors. The overall book is by no means comprehensive in coverage, but it neither intends to be or indeed should be. Instead, it permits the reader to learn about specific topics in the key authors voice, and from a unified perspective of the ligand design... The book, as a secondary impact, also helps to showcase the important contribution Canadian researchers have made to catalysis and ligand design, with 6 of the 13 chapters written by authors at Canadian universities. In closing, the collection of articles found in Ligand Design in Metal Chemistry is certainly worthy of a book shelf spot for those working in the field of ligand design in catalysis. As the content of the book is necessarily focussed, this reviewer recommends a thorough read through the table of contents to ensure that chapters of particular interest are complemented by those that will introduce the reader to new areas."
