Abstract |
This textbook is designed to assist the practicing engineer in the evaluation and design of systems for the control of the industrial in-plant environment. Chapters cover: theory in practice (basic chemistry and physics, behaviour of gases and vapours, mixtures of gases and vapours, fuels and combustion products); identifying sources of air contaminants; plant layout and classification of hazardous areas; natural, mechanical and exhaust ventilation; makeup air systems; dust control; pressure ventilation; clearing the air in laboratories; moisture control in process buildings; noise control; industrial heat and its control. |
