Safety in the Chemical Process Industries

D.A. Crowl, C. DeFrain, A. Edelson

This video series entitled "Safety in the Chemical Process Industries" presents a strong
introduction to the application of chemical process safety technology in an actual
chemical facility. All video material was taped at the Chemical Engineering Research
Department at BASF Corporation in Wyandotte, Michigan. Most of the demonstrations
are given using actual process equipment in the BASF Process Development (PD)
facility.
This series is designed as instructional material for undergraduate students in chemical or
mechanical engineering as well as industrial engineers or chemists who are being
introduced to industrial safety for the first time. This series provides significant
supplementary material for an existing undergraduate chemical engineering course on
chemical process safety. This series was funded by the National Science Foundation and
by BASF Corporation.
