Chemical and Process Plant Commissioning A Practical Guide to Plant System and Equipment Installation and Commissioning, Second Edition , winner of the 2012 Basil Brennan Medal from the Institution of Chemical Engineers, is a guide to converting a newly constructed plant or equipment into a fully integrated and operational process unit. The book is supported by detailed, proven and effective commission templates and includes extensive commissioning scenarios that enable the reader to good commissioning practices. Sections focus on the critical safety assessment and inspection regimes necessary to ensure that new plants are compliant with OSHA and environmental requirements. Martin Killcross has comprehensively brought together the theory of textbooks and technical information obtained from sales literature to provide engineers with what they need to know before initiating talks with vendors regarding equipment selection.
Very helpful guide for anyone working as a commissioning engineer. Covers pretty much everything, including what can go wrong at all stages of a project. I keep going back to it for reference and would recommend this book as a must have for anyone going into commissioning.
