Book Description

Calculation Methods for Industrial Hygiene Written in easy-to-understand language, students as well as practicing environmental health professionals will find that problem solving becomes a sixth sense after using Calculation Methods for Industrial Hygiene. Calculation Methods begins with a discussion of the fundamental units of mass, length, and time, and moves on to develop an understanding of the fundamental physical chemistry of gases and vapors — enabling environmental health professionals to develop new methods to solve "real world problems." Understanding of algebraic methods is the cornerstone upon which the author builds a common foundation for problem solving. After working through this book the reader will be able to:
  • Employ dimensional analysis in solving problems
  • Develop computational skills using a rigorous scientific basis
  • Integrate basic principles of physical chemistry with industrial hygiene, toxicology, and air pollution studies
  • Develop exposure assessment data
  • Validate exposure assessments
A technical and laboratory reference manual on physical chemistry and calculation techniques used in industrial hygiene and toxicology, Calculation Methods for Industrial Hygiene pays meticulous attention to the use of dimensions to solve complex problems with minimal errors. Over 180 examples and problems are completely solved and explained.

2.0 out of 5 stars I bought this for CIH prep and did not use it much., February 5, 1999
By A Customer
I think the best book for IH calculations is Quantitative Industrial Hygiene A Formula Workbook by Caravanos. I also like the computer programs for calculation practice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for calculations, December 3, 1999
By A Customer
This book isn't meant for those studying for the CIH exam but for those who need a great study reference for industrial hygiene calculations, this is the book! Step by step from beginning to end.
