New to the second edition of Hazardous Materials Chemistry, the Field Operations Guide offers firefighters working in the field a reference for quickly identifying and responding to hazardous materials. By translating the classroom training into response in the field, responders can assist in critical decision-making at the scene of the incident using vital information, reference tables and figures drawn from the book – making this a valuable resource for any hazardous materials responder.
Features:
* Designed as a field reference for hazmat operations and technician level practitioners, this guide is helpful on a fire rig on scene or as a supplement in training courses.
* Organized logically, the guide is divided into five separate sections for field identification of hazardous threats -- C- Chemical, B- Biological, R- Radiological, N- Nuclear, and E- Explosives - allowing firefighters the ability to assist at any hazardous materials incident.
* Diagrams and charts help to present need-to-know information in a straight-forward manner for quick incident response. |
