He is the author of Prevention of Valve Fugitive Emissions in the Oil and Gas Industry and Subsea Valves and Actuators for the Oil and Gas Industry, both published by Elsevier. Karan earned a Master of Research in Mechanical Engineering and a Masters in Oil and Gas Engineering, both from Robert Gordon University of Aberdeen, and a Bachelors in Industrial Engineering from the Iran University of Science and Technology.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

ASME Codes and Standards for Piping and Valves offers an overview of the essential ASME B31 codes and B16 standards, guiding the design including flexibility and stress analysis, material selection, fabrication, inspection, testing, operation, and maintenance of piping and valve systems across various energy sectors. Covering key codes such as B31.1, B31.3, B31.12, and B16 standards related to flanges, fittings and valves, it highlights applications in hydrogen piping systems, power piping for geothermal, and biomass facilities, and carbon capture plants.
The book starts with an introduction to ASME codes, covers piping systems, valve types, fittings, flange integrity, and several aspects of piping design. It addresses the full lifecycle of piping and valve systems as used in industrial projects, from design to operation and maintenance. Later chapters cover power and hydrogen piping codes, helping readers understand codes for low-carbon technologies. With case studies and visuals, the book is a valuable guide for engineers, managers, and students in energy and sustainability fields.
