Dispelling chemical industry myths

0 - Default Title
Description
With over fifty years of experience in the chemical industry, Trevor Kletz sheds light on statements of doubtful accuracy that are widely accepted among chemical engineers and professionals in the chemical industry. These so-called myths have led to accidents and wrong decisions. This book encourages a skeptical approach so that accidents can be avoided and our resources can be more effectively used. The myths address technology, management, and, new to this edition, toxicology and the environment. Included in each myth is a thorough description of why it is wrong. This important resource provides a gentle reminder that all received wisdom should be looked at critically from time to time. Everyone teaching, learning, and working in the oil, chemical, and other process industries will find the book stimulating and provocative - and relevant to their everyday work.
