Description Facilities which utilize hazardous liquids and gases represent a significant potential liability to the owner, operator, and general public
in terms of personnel safety and preservation of assets. It is obvious that a catastrophic incident or loss of property or personnel
is to be avoided at all costs.
This book was conceived to give the reader a guide to understanding the requirements of the various
codes and regulations that apply to the design, construction, and operation of facilities utilizing hazardous materials in their processes.
Audience
