This Fourth Edition brings the reader up to date on gas
technologies and equipment that have evolved since the Third
Edition was published in 1990. It is both a comprehensive overview
and a source reference for supplementary data on every aspect of
handling gases in compressed, liquefied, and cryogenic forms.
Properties, safety considerations, equipment, and regulations
relevant to compressed gases are all addressed. The Fourth Edition
gives information relating to current standards from the various
standards developing organizations in the field, as well as the
latest shipping requirements, storage and handling procedures and
uses. The Fourth Edition of Handbook of Compressed Gases is the
only compressed gas reference that combines gas-specific
information on 66 compressed gases, including physical constants,
handling, storage and transportation, and safety requirements as
well as comprehensive, detailed information on valves and pressure
relief devices, cylinder maintenance, bulk containers and
transportation, and oxygen cleaning. The handbook has been
reformatted to present information in a more ordered, logical
sequence, using specific labeling and marking information to make
the Fourth Edition even more useful than its predecessor. This new
edition includes: The latest changes in DOT regulations (HM-206,
HM-215A, HM-215B), Exposure limits set by ACGIH and OSHA which have
been reviewed and updated, New developments in safety equipment,
along with the latest training requirements to mitigate a
compressed gas incident. Since this handbook is not
product-specific, it contains coverage of gases across the spectrum
of the industry - not just those produced by one manufacturer. It
is aready source of useful information on natural gases,
refrigerants, medical gases, atmospheric gases, and equipment and
systems for oxygen service. All professionals whose work includes
the manufacture, handling, or use of gas will find the Fourth
Edition of Handbook of Compressed Gases extremely valuable. It
serves the needs of engineers, technicians, researchers,
maintenance personnel, health specialists, transportation
directors, purchasing agents, hazardous materials officials, and
chemical handlers.
