Sommario/riassunto

The most important physical principles, as well as the engineering equipment (components, assemblies and their function) for the regasification and compression of cryogenic liquefied gases, especially natural gas, are presented in this book. The most important LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) applications are described. Practical advice is given on possible plant layout and design. Safety-related product-specific designs are pointed out and their solutions are described. They are reflected in the safety and training instructions that are provided to the reader with this book. From the contents LNG and its thermodynamics From the source to the customer Continuous and discontinuous operation management Supply facilities/grid feed/CNG filling stations Tank types and tank equipment Description of the main components of the LNG/CNG plant Safety devices Approval procedure Protective measures and training recommendations The target group Occupational safety officers, filling station operators, operators of decentralised supply systems Decision-makers in the field of energy supply, energy management and licensing authorities Project engineers, assembly managers, fitters, maintenance staff Lecturers and students in the field of power engineering, industrial safety About the author Werner Hermeling is a trained engineer in chemical plant engineering and heat, ventilation and air conditioning technology with many years of practical experience in the field of cryogenic liquefied gases, their transport, regasification and compression. He is the inventor of several patented and implemented solutions in the field. This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.

Sommario/riassunto

The Great Rebellion of 1857 in India was much more than a 'sepoy mutiny'. It was a major event in South Asian and British colonial history that significantly challenged imperialism in India.This fascinating collection explores hitherto ignored diversities of the Great Rebellion



such as gender and colonial fiction, courtesans, white 'marginals', penal laws and colonial anxieties about the  Mughals, even in exile. Also studied are popular struggles involving tribals and outcastes, and the way outcastes in the south of India locate the Rebellion. Interdisciplinary in focus and ba
