Vol 19 (2010)
"Volume 19 of Chemical Engineering Transactions, provides a forum on process safety, risk assessment and HSE management. This Book provides a good opportunity to share and gain experience on "hot" topics in emerging risk assessment and management, as the assessment of accident scenarios caused by natural hazards and the safety of energy systems and infrastructures.
This Volume on safety and sustainability, contributes to the consolidation of a safety culture aiming at a sustainable growth of the enterprise value based on the safeguard of the health of employees and population, the safety of operations and the environmental protection."
