The new edition has been updated with more than 70% new content and the order of topics have been rearranged. Each chapter begins with a detailed case study of a Process Safety incident and includes problem sets, what a new engineer might do, and other incidents. Additionally, the volume of content on each of the elements is commensurate with the importance of that element to a new engineer. For example, much more content is given to hazard identification and risk analysis then to process safety management systems. Finally the book provides a detailed content matrix linking to existing CCPS material and tools and includes problem sets and PowerPoint lectures for each chapter"-- ER -
