ASME Codes and Standards for Piping and Valves: Engineering Applications in Hydrogen, Renewable, and Conventional Energy Systems delivers a thorough introduction to ASME B31 and B16 standards, offering clear explanations and practical strategies for designing, building, and maintaining piping and valve systems used in a variety of energy sectors. Covering everything from basic principles to advanced techniques in fabrication, inspection, and testing, this book examines important standards like B31.1, B31.3, and B31.12, as well as B16 fittings, flanges, and valves. Special focus is given to hydrogen piping, geothermal, biomass, and carbon capture, with dedicated chapters on material selection and operational best practices.

In addition to its practical guidance, the book stands out for its emphasis on real-world applications, using case studies and illustrations to help readers navigate the complexities of modern energy systems. Whether you’re an engineer, project manager, student, or trainer, this resource ensures a solid grasp of the latest ASME codes and their relevance to emerging energy technologies.

Karan Sotoodeh holds a PhD in Safety and Reliability in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Stavanger. Previously, Karan was the Senior / Lead Engineer in valves and actuators for Baker Hughes, one of the world’s largest oil field services company. He was responsible for engineering and delivering valves and actuators in subsea manifolds, working with valve suppliers, R&D activities, and maintaining the company’s valve database. He also worked for AkerSolutions, NLI Engineering, and Nargan Engineers as a senior specialist in piping and valves, assisting with many projects around the world. 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.
