Product Description
Environmental science combined with computer technology. One click on a mouse and information flows into your PC from up to 10,000 miles away. When you receive this information you can ferret through the data and use it in any number of computer programs. The result: solutions to plant design problems that affect the health and well being of people around the globe. What does that mean to you, the environmental professional, scientist, or engineer? Computer Simulated Plant Design for Waste Minimization/Pollution Prevention builds on the concepts introduced in Stan Bumble's Computer Generated Physical Properties, the first volume of the Computer Modeling for Environmental Management series. Bumble discusses using computer simulation programsto solve problems in plant design before they occur. He covers design issues for stationary and non-stationary sources of pollution, global warming, troposcopic ozone, and stratospheric ozone. With Computer Simulated Plant Design for Waste Minimization/Pollution Prevention you will understand how to use computer technology to design plants that generate little or no pollution. Even better, you can use the information generated by computer simulation for technical data in proposals, presentations and as the basis for making policy decisions. ... Read more

Product Description
The environmental impact of industrial waste is one of the most serious challenges facing the chemical process industries. From a focus on end-of-pipe treatment in the 1970s, chemical manufacturers have increasinglyimplemented pollution prevention policies in which pollutants are mitigated at the source or separated and recovered and then reused or sold.
This book is the first to present systematic techniques for cost-effective pollution prevention, altering what has been an art that depends on experience and subjective opinion into a science rooted in fundamental engineering principles and process integration. Step-by-step procedures are presented that are widely applicable to the chemical, petrochemical, petroleum, pharmaceutical, food, and metals industries.
Various levels of sophistication ranging from graphical methods to algebraic procedures and mathematical optimization, numerous applications and case studies, and integrated software for optimizing waste recovery systems make Pollution Prevention through Process Integration: Systematic Design Tools a must read for a wide spectrum of practicing engineers, environmental scientists, plant managers, advanced undergraduate and graduate students, and researchers in the areas of pollution prevention andprocess integration.

1Allows the reader to establish pollution-prevention targets for a process and then develop implementable, cost-effective solutions
1Contains step-by-step procedures that can be applied to environmental problems in a wide variety of process industries
1Integrates pollution prevention with other process objectives
1Author is internationally recognized for pioneering work in developing mass integration science and technology

Editorial Review

Product Description
Green Profits covers two tightly connected topics, environmental management systems (EMS) and pollution prevention (P2), in a single volume. Authored by an environmental engineer and an economist/planner, Green Profits shows how to implement an EMS, especially ISO 14001, so that it leads to profitable pollution prevention innovations, and how to identify and implement pollution prevention measures in a sound strategic business framework. Green Profitsprovides the knowledge and tools for enterprise managers to achieve the benefits of both EMS and P2, and to do so in ways that fit in with existing management systems in their enterprises.

Environmental management systems are planned and organized ways for an enterprise to manage its interactions with the environment, in particular those interactions that consume resources, degrade the environment, and create human health risk. Part I of Green Profits provides a thorough and practical understanding of the elements of EMSs in general and ISO 14001 in particular, tools and techniques for implementing an EMS and achieving ISO 14001 certification, and help with getting the implementation process started.

Pollution prevention involves replacing process technologies that generate pollution with those that do not or that do so much less. It focuses on improving production processes to minimize waste rather than treating effluents or emissions, which add to costs. Part II of Green Profits provides tools such as step-by-step guides to conducting a P2 audit and energy and material balances for identifying P2 opportunities in an enterprise; examples of P2 practices in specific industry sectors; and a set of tools for assessing potential P2 investments from a bottom-line point of view.

5-0 out of 5 stars Review of Green Profits
This is an excellent book to generate cost saving ideas from. It combines simple engineering and management principles with a focus on proving to the reader how good environmental performance translates into good economic performance. The authors have done a great job in showing the basic prinicples and benefits of pollution prevention within the context of environmental management systems. The many industry-specific examples on P2 and waste minimization are simply excellent. I highly recommend this book for environmental managers.

5-0 out of 5 stars Green Profits: The Managers Handbook for ISO 14001 and P2
Very informative book with new concepts on how to apply life cycle costs to pollution prevention projects. This book brings together two related subjects very clearly. It has helped our refineries see more clearly how an EMS can be applied within the context of pollution prevention. It clearly shows by many examples reasons for displacing end of pipe treatment trechnologies.

5-0 out of 5 stars Green Profits: The Managers Handbook for ISO 14001 and P2
This is an excellent text that shows both engineers and managers how to apply principles to reducing environmental compliance costs. The works of Dr. Cheremisinoff are well known in the environmental management and pollution prevention fields. This book is a wonderful source of ideas and techniques for senior environmental managers.

Product Description
During the last century international trade has becomeindispensable for many economies. This is not only the case for tradein primary raw materials and consumer products but also for secondary(recyclable) materials. With the rapid growth of the recycling sectorworldwide, trade in recyclables increased tremendously. It is strikingthat most of this trade flows from developed to developing countries.This book addresses the main causes of this typical trade pattern andinvestigates its economic and environmental effects by carrying outcase studies on waste paper imports in India, waste plastics importsin China, and used-tyre trade in Europe. The book concludes byrecommending policies that are aimed at preventing negative economicand environmental effects potentially resulting from trade inrecyclables. The book offers new ideas to researchers who are involvedin international trade, material flows, and waste management, andprovides new insights for decision-makers who are interested in WTOand the Basel Convention. ...

Description:
Green chemistry is an important tool in achieving sustainability. The implementation of green chemistry, the design of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use and generation of hazardous substances, is essential if the expanding global population is to enjoy an increased standard of living without having a negative impact on the health of the planet. Cleaner technologies will allow the chemical enterprise to provide society with the goods and services on which it depends in an environmentally responsible manner. Green chemistry provides solutions to such global challenges as climate change, sustainable agriculture, energy, toxics in the environment, and the depletion of natural resources. A collaborative effort by industry, academia, and government is needed to promote the adoption of the green chemistry technologies necessary to achieve a sustainable society. ... Read more
