They are used extensively in the process industries, especially petrochemical. Though there are only four basic types of valves, there is an enormous number of different kinds of valves within each category, each one used for a specific purpose. No other book on the market analyzes the use, construction, and selection of valves in such a comprehensive manner. -Covers new environmentally-conscious equipment and practices, the most important hot-button issue in the petrochemical industry today -Details new generations of valves for offshore projects, the oil industry's fastest-growing segment -Includes numerous new products that have never before been written about in the mainstream literature 533 $aElectronic reproduction.$bAmsterdam :$cElsevier Science & Technology,$d2007.$nMode of access: World Wide Web.$nSystem requirements: Web browser.$nTitle from title screen (viewed on Aug. 2, 2007).$nAccess may be restricted to users at subscribing institutions 650 0$aValves$xHandbooks, manuals, etc. 650 6$aRobinetterie (Appareils)$vGuides, manuels, etc. 655 7$aElectronic books.$2local 700 1 $aSmith, Peter$eauthor$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$041392 776 1 $cOriginal$z0750677171$z9780750677172$w(DLC) 2004557509$w(OCoLC)56567866 856 40$3Referex$uhttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780750677172$zAn electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click for information 856 41$zTable of contents$uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/toc/els051/2004557509.html 856 42$zPublisher description$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/description/els051/2004557509.html 907 $a.b13652102$b03-03-22$c24-01-08 912 $a991003229409707536 996 $aValve selection handbook$91463921 997 $aUNISALENTO 998 $ale026$b24-01-08$cm$d@ $e-$feng$gne $h0$i0
