Description

Sustainable Development in Practice: Case Studies for Engineers and Scientists is a comprehensive guide to designing and operating industrial systems in a more sustainable manner. It explores how sustainability criteria can be combined with traditional scientific and engineering considerations to address economic, environmental and social issues. The book presents a series of new practical case studies drawn from various sectors, including mining, energy, food, buildings, transport, waste, and health. These case studies examine the scientific and technical aspects alongside relevant environmental, economic and social issues, providing valuable insights for technical experts. This second edition has been completely revised and updated to include twelve new chapters, covering topics such as nuclear energy, biofuels, aviation, buildings, urban transport, food, sanitation and health.
