The shutdown of a refinery is costly, but costs are minimized when a turnaround team performs effective plant turnaround procedures. The process industry is also coming under severe pressure to cut costs with construction of larger integrated units and increasingly stringent environmental policies, putting older operators out of business and making turnaround operations the only way to ensure the integrity and physical assets of the process plants survive and sustain the life of the investment. Turnaround Management for the Oil, Gas, and Process Industries upgrades the plant manager's project management skills to understand the importance of turnaround management in relation to the health of the whole business and be able to ensure the that the right framework, processes, and software are applied to ensure a high probability of success. The book is structured in a way so that it can be used progressively through the phases of development in preparation for a turnaround with each relevant section easily identified for quicker access. Specific to the process industry, especially oil and gas, petrochemical and power plants, this reference simplifies the entire lifecycle of a turnaround and provides specific examples of both successful and unsuccessful turnaround projects, making it more applicable than the many other generalized project management books. Identifying the most significant performance indicators and strategies to ensure that targets are met, Turnaround Management for Oil, Gas, and Process Industries is the best tool for a plant manager to keep the plant safe, efficient and running successfully on effective decision making.
Aligns turnaround project management with ISO guidance and ANSI/PMI standards
Utilizes the best tools for long term planning, including instructional videos and training material
Gain practical knowledge through both good and bad turnaround management case studies along with real-world issues and challenges encountered

Explosion Hazards in the Process Industries, Second Edition," delivers the most current and comprehensive content for today s process engineer. Process safety and petrochemical engineers inherently accept that there is a risk of explosions when working on process facilities such as plants and refineries. Yet many that enter this field do not have a fundamental starting point to understand the nature of explosions, and there are a lot of misconceptions and impartial information in the market.
"Explosion Hazards in the Process Industries, Second Edition," answers this need by providing engineers and consultants a go-to reference and training guide to understand the principles of explosions, what causes them, and how to mitigate and prevent them from reoccurring. Enhanced to include new chapters on BLEVE (Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosions), water vapor explosions, and destructive effects from accidental explosions, this guide continues to fulfill a comprehensive introduction to the subject, rounded out with new case studies, references, and a discussion on methods of hazard and risk analysis. Offers a comprehensive introduction to process safetyIncludes updated new chapters on Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosions (BLEVE), water vapor explosions, and destructive effects for accidental explosionsGains new case studies, references, and standards to stay on top of what is new and criticalEstablishes the starting point to process safety and understanding the fundamentals of explosions and how to mitigate them"

Describes in one volume the data received during experiments on detonation in high explosive charges
This book brings together, in one volume, information normally covered in a series of journal articles on high explosive detonation tests, so that developers can create new explosive technologies. It focuses on the charges that contain inert elements made of materials in which a sound velocity is significantly higher than a detonation velocity. It also summarizes the results of experimental, numerical, and theoretical investigations of explosion systems, which contain high modulus ceramic components. The phenomena occurring in such systems are described in detail: desensitization of high explosives, nonstationary detonation processes, energy focusing, and Mach stems formation. Formation of hypersonic flows of ceramic particles arising due to explosive collapse of ceramic tubes is another example of the issues discussed.
Explosion Systems with Inert High Modulus Components: Increasing the Efficiency of Blast Technologies and Their Applications also looks at the design of explosion protective structures based on high modulus ceramic materials. The structural transformations, caused in metallic materials by the energy focusing, or by the impact of hypersonic ceramic jets are also discussed. These transformations include, but not limited to adiabatic shear banding, phase transformations, mechanical twinning, melting, boiling, and even evaporation of the impacted substrates.
Specifically discusses in one volume the explosions involved with inert high modules components normally scattered over numerous journal articles
Covers methods to increase energy output of a weak explosive by encasing it in a higher explosive
Discusses the specifics of explosive systems containing high modulus inert elements
Details the process of detonation and related phenomena, as well as the design of novel highly performant explosive systems
Describes the transformation in materials impacted due to explosion in such systems
Explosion Systems with Inert High Modulus Components will be of great interest to specialists working in fields of energy of the explosion and explosion safety as well as university staff, students, and postgraduate students studying explosion phenomena, explosive technologies, explosion safety, and materials science.

Описание: Dust Explosion Dynamics focuses on the combustion science that governs the behavior of the three primary hazards of combustible dust: dust explosions, flash fires, and smoldering. It explores the use of fundamental principles to evaluate the magnitude of combustible dust hazards in a variety of settings. Models are developed to describe dust combustion phenomena using the principles of thermodynamics, transport phenomena, and chemical kinetics. Simple, tractable models are described first and compared with experimental data, followed by more sophisticated models to help with future challenges. . . Dr. Ogle introduces the reader to just enough combustion science so that they may read, interpret, and use the scientific literature published on combustible dusts. This introductory text is intended to be a practical guide to the application of combustible dust models, suitable for both students and experienced engineers. It will help you to describe the dynamics of explosions and fires involving dust and evaluate their consequences which in turn will help you prevent damage to property, injury and loss of life from combustible dust accidents.
