Viele Autoren behaupten von sich, das ?vollständigste? Tabellenwerk chemischer Materialkenndaten verfasst zu haben. Was vorgelegt wird, sind aber oft äußerst umfangreiche Bände, die für den praktisch tätigen Ingenieur an falscher Stelle allzu sehr ins Detail gehen. Hier kommt endlich ein wirklich handliches Buch für jeden Ingenieur, Chemiker oder Naturwissenschaftler verwandter Disziplinen, der schnell Antwort auf alltägliche Fragen braucht, ohne Enzyklopädien durchsuchen oder das Internet durchforsten zu wollen! Aufgenommen wurden ausschließlich die gängigsten Substanzen, die regelmäßig in industriellen Verfahren zum Einsatz kommen (wie Gase, Brennstoffe, Wasser), aber in den ?vollständigen? Tabellenwerken gewöhnlich fehlen. Nützliche Zugabe: schrittweise abzuarbeitende Sicherheitspläne und -schemata, die Ingenieure und Anlagenfahrer problemlos auf die eigenen Prozesse zuschneiden können.


Nicholas P. Cheremisinoff is a consultant to industry, international lending institutions and donor agencies on pollution prevention and responsible environmental care practices. With a career spanning more than 30 years, he is also the author, co-author or editor of more than 150 technical books and hundreds of state of the art review and scientific articles. He received his B.Sc., M.Sc., and Ph.D. degrees in chemical engineering from Clarkson College of Technology. Anton Davletshin received a degree in construction management from Virginia Polytechnic Institute and has most recently joined N&P Ltd, an environmental services group that focuses on pollution prevention and environmental management. Mr. Davletshin has focused on green building practices and technologies and has assisted N&P Ltd on a number of site investigations including the Tennessee Valley Authority flyash spill.
