DOWNLOAD EBOOKVéritable traité de référence et guide pratique, Principes fondamentaux du génie des procédés et de la technologie chimique répertorie et analyse les principes de base incontournables pour réaliser des synthèses industrielles de produits chimiques. Il présente également les fondements de la qualité, de la sécurité et de l'environnement, notions indispensables à maîtriser avant de mettre en route et de conduire un procédé. Organisé en 3 parties, cet ouvrage rassemble toutes les notions théoriques et pratiques nécessaires aux chimistes avant d'industrialiser un procédé physique ou chimique. Il permet : d'assimiler les théories et concepts fondamentaux impliqués dans les procédés (grandeurs physicochimiques, bilans de matière et d'énergie, équilibres physiques et chimiques, etc.), illustrés par 54 exercices d'application. Un chapitre est également consacré à la mise en oeuvre des opérations chimiques en présentant les connaissances de base sur les réacteurs chimiques idéaux et industriels, sur la qualité, la sécurité et l'environnement, d'acquérir une méthodologie efficace pour la conduite de calculs de base à travers 84 exercices et problèmes de synthèse résolus issus de situations industrielles réelles et de la pratique professionnelle. De difficulté croissante et commentés pas à pas, ces exercices permettent de progresser et de vérifier ses acquis, de savoir interpréter et maîtriser les opérations physiques et chimiques les plus courantes. Totalement inédite, cette partie reposant sur des déterminations expérimentales présente des exemples de bilans effectués dans des opérations de séparation ou de synthèse chimique réalisées à l'échelon pilote (rappel des notions théoriques, description exhaustive du matériel utilisé et des opérations à effectuer, présentation et interprétation des résultats expérimentaux…). Enrichie de 26 annexes rassemblant les principales données utilisées et de deux index détaillés, cette nouvelle édition constitue un support indispensable pour les étudiants et enseignants en génie des procédés et en chimie industrielle des IUT, STS, licences et masters professionnels ainsi que des écoles d'ingénieurs.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis volume is the outcome of a recent NATO Advanced Study Institute (ASI) on "Technology Assessment. Environmental Impact Assessment. and Risk Analysis: Contributions from the Psychological and Decision Sciences." The Institute was held in Les Arcs. France and functioned as a high level teaching activity during which scientific research results were presented in detail by eminent lecturers. Support for the Institute was provided by grants from the NATO Division of Scientific Affairs. the u.S. Office of Naval Research. and the Russell Sage Foundation. The Institute covered several areas of research. including quantitative studies on decision and judgmental processes. studies on human intellectual limitations. studies on risk attitudes and perceptions. studies on factors contributing to conflicts and disputes about hazardous technologies and activities. studies on factors influencing forecasts and judgments by experts. studies on public preferences for decisionmaking processes. studies on public responses to technological hazards. and case studies applying principles and methods from the psychological and decision sciences in specific settings.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA wealth of international case studies illustrating current issues and emerging best practices in enterprise risk management Despite enterprise risk management's relative newness as a recognized business discipline, the marketplace is replete with guides and references for ERM practitioners. Yet, until now, few case studies illustrating ERM in action have appeared in the literature. One reason for this is that, until recently, there were many disparate, even conflicting definitions of what, exactly ERM is and, more importantly, how organizations can use it to utmost advantage. With efforts underway, internationally, to mandate ERM and to standardize ERM standards and practices, the need has never been greater for an authoritative resource offering risk management professionals authoritative coverage of the full array of contemporary ERM issues and challenges. Written by two recognized international thought leaders in the field, ERM-Enterprise Risk Management provides that and much more. Packed with international cases studies illustrating ERM best practices applicable across all industry sectors and business models Explores contemporary issues, including quantitative and qualitative measures, as well as potential pitfalls and challenges facing today's enterprise risk managers Includes interviews with leading risk management theorists and practitioners, as well as risk managers from a variety of industries An indispensable working resource for risk management practitioners everywhere and a valuable reference for researchers, providing the latest empirical evidence and an exhaustive bibliography
Cindynics, The Science of Danger

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book offers a new perspective to uncover the keys to accident and disaster avoidance. Created with a working group, it presents research and understanding on the root causes of disasters. Indeed, beyond technical failures, human beings are at the heart of organizations and, through the exchange of data and information, influential relationships inevitably emerge such as conflicts of interest and cooperation. With examples selected from multiple accidents and disasters, this book demonstrates that analyzing the causal chain that leads to an accident is not sufficient if we wish to truly understand it. The role of operational and managerial actors and the complexities they generate are also explored. Cindynics, The Science of Danger helps readers develop their ability to identify gaps, deficits, dissonances, disjunctions, degenerations and blockages, which are the real dangers in inevitably evolving activity situations. With an easily-understandable approach, this book offers new perspectives in several fields (health, crisis management and conflict resolution).

DOWNLOAD EBOOKOur societies have become very crisis-prone. This book explores crises and the methods of anticipation, management and reconstruction, and considers a risk-crisis-territorial development continuum. The aim is to better understand a widely used concept and clarify the methods of action in the field of crisis management. The different forms of learning proposed to better face future crises are also questioned. This book invites us to analyze the resources available to support crisis management and reconstruction, and consider the unequal access to these resources in different territories in order to design future territorial strategies. This often results in a form of territorial inertia after the crises. However, some innovate, imagine renewed territories, prepare for reconstruction, or even recompose territories now in order to make them more resilient. The crisis can then be the driving force or the accelerator of these changes and contribute to the emergence of new practices, or even new urban and territorial utopias.
