Loss prevention engineering describes all activities intended to help organizations in any industry to prevent loss, whether it be through injury, fire, explosion, toxic release, natural disaster, terrorism or other security threats. Compared to process safety, which only focusses on preventing loss in the process industry, this is a much broader field. Here is the only one-stop source for loss prevention principles, policies, practices, programs and methodology presented from an engineering vantage point. As such, this handbook discusses the engineering needs for manufacturing, construction, mining, defense, health care, transportation and quantification, covering the topics to a depth that allows for their functional use while providing additional references should more information be required. The reference nature of the book allows any engineers or other professionals in charge of safety concerns to find the information needed to complete their analysis, project, process, or design.
Privileged Chiral Ligands and Catalysts
Catalytic asymmetric synthesis has been one of the most active research areas in chemistry (Nobel Prize in 2001). The development of efficient chiral catalysts plays a crucial role in asymmetric catalysis. Although many chiral ligands/catalysts have been developed in the past decades, the most efficient catalysts are derived from a few core structures, called «privileged chiral catalysts». This ultimate «must have» and long awaited reference for every chemist working in the field of asymmetric catalysis starts with the core structure of the catalysts, explaining why a certain ligand or catalyst is so successful. It describes in detail the history, the basic structural characteristics, and the applications of these «privileged catalysts». This novel presentation provides readers with a much deeper insight into the topic and makes it a must-have for organic chemists, catalytic chemists, chemists working with/on organometallics, chemists in industry, and libraries. From the contents: * BINAP * Bisphosphacycles – From DuPhos and BPE to a Diverse Set of Broadly Applied Ligands * Josiphos Ligands: From Discovery to Technical Applications * Chiral Spiro Ligands * Chiral Bisoxazoline Ligands * PHOX Ligands * Chiral Salen Complexes * BINOL * TADDOLate Ligands * Cinchona Alkaloids * Proline Derivatives

Empfehlungen des Arbeitskreises «Baugruben» (EAB)
Deutsche Gesellschaft für Geotechnik e.V. / German Geotechnical Society
Mit der Herausgabe der Empfehlungen, die normenähnlichen Charakter haben, unterstützt der Arbeitskreis „Baugruben“ der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Geotechnik e.V. (DGGT) die Planungspraxis bei Entwurf und Berechnung von Baugrubenumschließungen. Zur bauaufsichtlichen Einführung der Eurocodes wurde eine Anpassung der 4. Aufl age der Empfehlungen an die Vorgaben der DIN EN 1997-1:2009 in Verbindung mit dem Nationalen Anhang DIN 1997-1/NA:2010-12 und den ergänzenden Regelungen der DIN 1054:2010-12 erforderlich. Alle Empfehlungen wurden gründlich überprüft, soweit erforderlich überarbeitet und an neue Erkenntnisse angepasst. Wesentlich überarbeitet wurde Kapitel 10 „Baugruben im Wasser“. Aufgrund der fortgeschrittenen Entwicklung in der Messtechnik und den gestiegenen Anforderungen wurde Kapitel 14 „Messtechnische Überprüfung und Überwachung von Baugrubenkonstruktionen“ völlig neu formuliert. Die Empfehlungen des Arbeitskreises „Baugruben“ sollen helfen, • Entwurf und Berechnung von Baugrubenumschließungen zu erleichtern, • Lastansätze und Berechnungsverfahren zu vereinheitlichen, • die Standsicherheit der Baugrubenkonstruktionen und ihrer Einzelteile sicherzustellen und • die Wirtschaftlichkeit der Baugrubenkonstruktionen zu verbessern.
Recommendations of the Committee for Waterfront Structures - Harbours and Waterways (EAU 2004)
Since 1949 the «Committee for Waterfront Structures» has operated on honorary base as a committee of the Society for Harbour Engineering (HTG), Hamburg, and since 1951 also as working group of the German Society for Geotechnics (DGGT), Essen. Its full designation reads «Committee for Simplification an Standardization of Calculation and Construction of Waterfront Structures», which also outlines its goals. Following on from the previous joint publications, this new edition of EAU 2004 contains the safety concept with partial safety factors in accordance with the Eurocodes or the European prestandards as well as with the new edition of the corresponding German standard, partially differing on account of practice experiences. The recommendations continue to satisfy the requirements for international acknowledgement and application with regard to planning, design tendering, the awarding of contracts, building and building supervision. Further, the inspection and accounting procedures for harbour and waterway constructions are given from uniform points of view.
Handbook of Lean Manufacturing in the Food Industry
The principles of lean manufacturing – increasing efficiency, reducing waste, lowering costs and improving control – may be applied to any industry. However, the food industry is unique, and creates unique demands. The political, social and economic importance of food is unrivalled by any other form of produce, as is the scrutiny to which the manufacture of food is subjected. For the food industry, lean manufacturing is not simply a cost-saving strategy, but is directly linked to issues of sustainability, the environment, ethics and public accountability. Handbook of Lean Manufacturing in the Food Industry is a major new source of information and ideas for those working in food manufacturing. Offering a fresh and modern perspective on best practice, it points the way to fewer breakdowns, reduced quality faults, improved teamwork and increased profits. With a focus on operations management and new process development, the book is accessible and easy to read, and is complemented by a wealth of practical examples drawn from industry. The author’s conversational style and questioning approach will be invaluable to food manufacturers who are seeking solutions to fundamental issues. The book is directed at those who are working in food manufacturing or the wider food industry, particularly factory operations managers and training teams who are looking for resources to help with lean manufacturing implementations. Others in the supply chain, from producers to retailers, will also find it invaluable. The book is a clear and timely introduction for students and lecturers in food science and technology who want to access the reality of lean manufacturing as well as the theory.
