New textbook revolutionizes teaching process safety for chemical engineers.
The article discusses a new book called "CCPS Process Safety for Engineers: An Introduction, Second Edition" that aims to teach risk-based process safety fundamentals to engineering students. The book is designed to meet the requirements of chemical engineering curricula and includes case studies, problem sets, references, and presentation materials. It can be used as a textbook for process safety courses or to integrate process safety content into other engineering courses. The book was created by a team of professors who specialize in teaching process safety and is based on CCPS risk-based process safety principles.
