Description:
Sustainable Development in Practice: Case Studies for Engineers
and Scientists, Second Edition explores the concept of
sustainable development and its implications for science and
engineering. It looks at how sustainability criteria can be
combined with traditional scientific and engineering considerations
to design and operate industrial systems in a more sustainable
manner. Taking a life cycle approach to addressing economic,
environmental and social issues, the book presents a series of new
practical case studies drawn from a range of sectors, including
mining, energy, food, buildings, transport, waste, and health.
Written in an accessible style, the book opens with a general
introduction to the concept of sustainable development and explores
its practical implications for technical experts. Recognising that
practical application of sustainable development depends on the
context, the second part of the book is devoted to case studies.
The case studies explore scientific and technical aspects alongside
relevant environmental economic and social issues.
The key features of this completely revised and updated second
edition include:
Twelve new chapters, including the case studies on nuclear
energy, biofuels, aviation, buildings, urban transport, food,
sanitation and health.
Six completely revised chapters
Coverage of a wide range of sustainability issues in both
developed and developing countries
Integration of scientific and technical aspects with economic,
environmental and social considerations
Discussion of policy implications

Great product minus the shipping
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
The product itself is great. I’m loving this graphic novel collection. My gripe is with the way in which it was shipped. A heavy box set like this needs more shipping protection than the thin bubble wrap package it was shipped in, as it sustained quite a bit of damage in shipping to the outer box. I contemplated returning this, but since books were undamaged I decided to keep it. It is still a bit disappointing though. Great price though and it shipped very quickly.
