This new volume consists of a comprehensive range of papers that were presented at the 14th International Conference on Fluid Sealing, held on 6-8th April 1994, in Florence, Italy, organised by BHR Group Limited. Emission control is a critical function in plant, equipment, machinery, and transportation systems, and is becoming the focus of legislation to control pollution. Failure to seal can have expensive and even hazardous consequences, including loss of use of plant or equipment, environmental contamination. lost or wasted production, and expensive maintenance, and the demand on seals are ever-increasing in their stringency. It is important, therefore, for engineers to take advantage of the papers presented in FLUID SEALING as they address such issues by providing a firm foundation for future development, and an insight into the application of the best available technology.
