Although many papers have been published describing methods for the inorganic analysis of petroleum no book has previously appeared devoted exclusively to this subject. The purpose of this work is to provide a laboratory handbook for industrial analysts of various degrees of professional training covering the determination of those elements commonly occurring in various types of petroleum products.The procedures represent, from the author's point of view, a reasonable compromise among the usual conflicting interests of speed, accuracy, and cost, and emphasize manufacturing rather than research applications.

Those involved in the design, operation, or maintenance of industrial boilers will find this book an invaluable source of information. The clarity and accuracy of presentation allows this book to function as a manual as well as a text.

Here is a lucid, practical presentation of the problems and solutions to industrial chemical cleaning. Contained in one essential reference are the causes and composition of fouling, the various chemicals used for its control, hazards in cleaning, and an examination of cleaning methods for the most common industrial equipment

This standard reference serves the industrial community as an authoritative source on cooling water problems. The problems of corrosion measurement and control are intensively examined and the more recently developed cooling water additives are reviewed. Advances in treatment chemicals and chemical cleaning are thoroughly explored.

McCoy's guide to the maintenance and management of cooling water systems and the bacteria that live in them. Methods are given for identifying and evaluating toxicants and bacteria that lead to fouling and staining of cooling water systems.
