Topics include the origin of fossil hydrocarbons and their chemical/physical properties; discovering hydrocarbon reserves; recovering oil, gas and bitumen; and purifying natural gas and process offgas. The chapter on safety and the environment convers safety regulations and environmental laws. It highlights learnings from major accidents. In addition to drawing on the authors' previous books, it includes teaching material from several courses. These include workshops provided for top petroleum companies and a highly rated course taught at the Florida A&M University/Florida State University (USA). 606 $aChemistry, Technical 606 $aChemistry, Physical and theoretical 606 $aChemical engineering 606 $aProduction engineering 606 $aChemicals$xSafety measures 606 $aIndustrial Chemistry 606 $aPhysical Chemistry 606 $aChemical Engineering 606 $aChemical Process Engineering 606 $aProcess Engineering 606 $aChemical Safety 615 0$aChemistry, Technical. 615 0$aChemistry, Physical and theoretical. 615 0$aChemical engineering. 615 0$aProduction engineering. 615 0$aChemicals$xSafety measures. 615 14$aIndustrial Chemistry. 615 24$aPhysical Chemistry. 615 24$aChemical Engineering. 615 24$aChemical Process Engineering. 615 24$aProcess Engineering. 615 24$aChemical Safety. 676 $a665.53 700 $aHsu$b Chang S.$0782759 702 $aRobinson$b Paul R. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910886989003321 996 $aPetroleum Science and Technology$92495435 997 $aUNINA
