This book was released on 1994-01-01 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1970s, the first wave of environmental regulation targeted specific sources of pollutants. In the 1990s, concern is focused not on the ends of pipes or the tops of smokestacks but on sweeping regional and global issues. This landmark volume explores the new industrial ecology, an emerging framework for making environmental factors an integral part of economic and business decision making. Experts on this new frontier explore concepts and applications, including: Bringing international law up to par with many national laws to encourage industrial ecology principles. Integrating environmental costs into accounting systems. Understanding design for environment, industrial "metabolism," and sustainable development and how these concepts will affect the behavior of industrial and service firms. The volume looks at negative and positive aspects of technology and addresses treatment of waste as a raw material. This volume will be important to domestic and international policymakers, leaders in business and industry, environmental specialists, and engineers and designers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As many industries are beginning to learn, pollution prevention technologies offer more than just a way to comply with regulations, or even to “do the right thing.” It also makes smart business sense. The authors of this book, both veterans of DuPont’s in-house waste reduction team, have put together a “how-to” guide for locating and implementing the best pollution prevention strategies for particular manufacturing processes. The book codifies elements of fundamental pollution prevention knowledge that are “easily understood and broadly applicable,” across a wide range of industries. At the heart of the book is what the authors call the “10-Step Method for Engineering Evaluations of Pollution Prevention Methods,” which breaks down the process to such simple steps as defining problems, setting goals, and identifying, defining, and evaluating alternative strategies.

Book excerpt: Pollution Prevention focuses on current efforts to incorporate pollution prevention into the functions of state and local environmental agencies. It explains how to introduce pollution prevention methods into inspection programs, permitting procedures, enforcement actions, technical assistance, training, and voluntary initiatives. Topics covering the financing of pollution prevention efforts and factors contributing to their development are addressed. The book offers a wealth of practical information for state and government agency personnel, consultants, waste management personnel, and professionals in industry.
Download or read book Pollution Prevention written by Louis Theodore and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-01-27 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Engineering and science professionals have studied the management of hazardous and toxic wastes extensively, and it is clear that the principal option of the future will be waste minimization, or pollution prevention. At present, however, few practicing professionals have a working understanding of this approach, educators are just starting to teach course material in this field, and students are only beginning to receive the training necessary to implement pollution prevention in their future work environment. An applications-oriented workbook of more than 100 exercises, Pollution Prevention: Problems and Solutions covers a variety of topics closely relevant to this field. The workbook is the result of a National Science Foundation College Faculty Workshop designed to generate new ideas and innovative educative approaches in the emerging, interdisciplinary field of pollution prevention. Contents include a pollution prevention overview in addition to problems and solutions organized into the categories of basic concepts, pollution prevention principles, regulations, source reduction, recycling, treatment, chemical plant/domestic applications, case studies, and ethics. Readership: Academics and students of undergraduate or graduate courses on waste management, as well as decision makers and practising professionals in the pollution prevention industry.
Download or read book Responsible Care written by Nicholas Cheremisinoff and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-11-25 with total page 553 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental regulations provide protection to the public, workers and the environment. To protect themselves from long-term liabilities, however, companies have to do more than just comply with the basic responsibilities. This handbook is designed to introduce terminology, methodology, tools, procedures and practical guidance for incorporating efficient pollution prevention strategies into the overall business plan. It is a company's responsibility to protect and control its management of waste and pollution, and a company that fails to do so will ultimately inflict a negative impact on its bottom line, especially in financial performance. Responsible Care delivers critical guidelines and rules of thumb required for industrial managers to improve their companies' profitability through waste reduction, cleaner production technologies and sound management practices.

Download or read book Tools and Methods for Pollution Prevention written by Subhas K. Sikdar and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Difficult ethical and political issues confront the application of scientific and technological solutions for preventing pollution from occurring. Often the questions embodying proposed solutions to known problems are ambiguous; and no singular solution can exist for all locations. Yet the common organizing principle for all solutions to environmental problems must be scientific, because only sound science can provide a rational understanding that decision-makers can use universally. The NATO Advanced Research Workshop (ARW) on Tools and Methods for Pollution Prevention (October 12-14, 1998, Prague, Czech Republic) was designed to assemble experts from NATO and former socialist countries of Eastern Europe to discuss science-based tools and methods, either available or in development, that can be used to analyze environmental impacts of manufacturing processes and manufactured products. The presentations at the workshop were written up specifically for the purpose of this book, albeit after peer reviews and thorough revisions. Most of the chapters focus on specific method development for designing environmentally benign processes or products. Several chapters take a broader view and focus on such designs from an implementation perspective, and dwell on ethical conflicts, resistance to change because of inertia or inadequate infrastructure, and on the lack of resources. We placed these chapters at the beginning of the book. The volume starts with the overview by Sikdar et aI. , who describe the scope and difficulties of pollution prevention in the manufacturing sectors.
