This book was released on 2001-09-13 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information technology is a powerful tool for meeting environmental objectives and promoting sustainable development. This collection of papers by leaders in industry, government, and academia explores how information technology can improve environmental performance by individual firms, collaborations among firms, and collaborations among firms, government agencies, and academia. Information systems can also be used by nonprofit organizations and the government to inform the public about broad environmental issues and environmental conditions in their neighborhoods. Several papers address the challenges to information management posed by the explosive increase in information and knowledge about environmental issues and potential solutions, including determining what information is environmentally relevant and how it can be used in decision making. In addition, case studies are described and show how industry is using information systems to ensure sustainable development and meet environmental standards. The book also includes examples from the public sector showing how governments use information knowledge systems to disseminate "best practices" beyond big firms to small businesses, and from the world of the Internet showing how knowledge is shared among environmental advocates and the general public.
Download or read book Implementation and Evaluation of Green Materials in Technology Development Emerging Research and Opportunities written by Mastura, M.T. and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2019-09-13 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to legal and consumer demands, eco-friendly resources that comply with environmental concerns while maintaining or improving performance are highly sought amongst manufacturers. Green materials are a specific material that are widely found in many product markets and are popular choices as alternative materials due to their recyclable, reusable, highly available, and corrosion-resistant features. These materials positively impact the environment through fewer emissions during the production process, positive carbon credits and energy recovery from incineration, and lower global warming effect. Extensive research is required to understand the full potential of these eco-friendly substances. Implementation and Evaluation of Green Materials in Technology Development: Emerging Research and Opportunities provides emerging research exploring the theoretical and practical aspects of environmentally friendly resources and applications within technology. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as life cycle analysis, nanomaterials, and environment management, this book is ideally designed for manufacturers, engineers, product developers, industrial practitioners, policymakers, researchers, academicians, students, and business and marketing associates seeking current research on the advancements and applications of green materials in future technology.

Download or read book Strategies and methods for implementing CE in construction activities in the Nordic countries supporting cases written by Wahlström, Margareta and published by Nordic Council of Ministers. This book was released on 2021-04-12 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Available online: https://pub.norden.org/temanord2021-508/ The national strategies for a circular economy set the overall targets for implementation of circular economy in the country. Putting theory into practice via local strategies can be a good means for the transition towards a circular economy in the construction sector. Municipalities can set demands for CE solutions by requiring, e.g. the use of recycled and/or recyclable construction materials, the application of design for disassembly principles in construction and requiring resource mapping, and reuse and recycling in the demolition phase. The study identifies and presents cases and experiences from the implementation of CE concepts at the local level in the Nordic communities with a focus on construction, renovation and demolition. Barriers and drivers for the uptake of CE solutions are analysed, and enabling factors that could support the implementation of circular economy concepts and identified barriers in norms, legislation and guidelines are described. As part of the project, the project group gave 10 policy recommendations.

Download or read book Management Recycling and Reuse of Waste Composites written by Vannessa Goodship and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2009-12-18 with total page 632 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This authoritative reference work provides a comprehensive review of the management, recycling and reuse of waste composites. These are issues which are of increasing importance due to the growing use of composites in many industries, increasingly strict legislation and concerns about disposal of composites by landfill or incineration. Part one discusses the management of waste composites and includes an introduction to composites recycling and a chapter on EU legislation for recycling waste composites. Part two reviews thermal technologies for recycling waste composites with chapters on pyrolysis, catalytic transformation, thermal treatments for energy recovery and fluidized bed pyrolysis. Part three covers mechanical methods of recycling waste composites. This section includes chapters on additives for recycled plastic composites, improving mechanical recycling and the quality and durability of mechanically recycled composites. Parts four discusses improving sustainable manufacture of composites, with chapters on environmentally-friendly filament winding of FRP composites, process monitoring and new developments in producing more functional and sustainable composites.
