This clearly makes the hazards associated with the handling of materials subject to either cause or react to electrostatic discharge of vital importance to anyone associated with their handling or industrial bulk use. This book provides a comprehensive guide to the dangers of static electricity and how to avoid them. It will prove invaluable to safety managers and professionals, as well as all personnel involved in the activities concerned, in the chemical, agricultural, pharmac 606 $aIndustrial buildings$xFires and fire prevention 606 $aElectrostatics 606 $aIndustrial accidents$vCase studies 615 0$aIndustrial buildings$xFires and fire prevention. 615 0$aElectrostatics. 615 0$aIndustrial accidents 676 $a628.9/2 686 $aSCI022000$aTEC017000$2bisacsh 700 $aLuttgens$b Gunter$01607179 701 $aWilson$b Norman$cDr.$01825226 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911006847603321 996 $aElectrostatic hazards$94392742 997 $aUNINA
