Book excerpt: Among the many factors complicating locational analysis of the petrochemical industry are (1) the infinite number of process combinations possible in a large petrochemical complex; (2) the difficulty of quantifying agglomeration economies which characterize the industry; (3) the large number of products defined as petrochemicals (some of which tend to be raw-material-location-oriented while others are market-oriented). One of the most important changes the petrochemical industry is undergoing is the current shift in feedstocks. Now that natural gas is becoming costly and scarce, new production facilities will no longer be based on the light feedstocks such as ethane, but will instead be based on heavier feedstocks such as gas-oil and naptha. In this analysis, the authors attempt to outline the locational factors that will be most relevant to petrochemical producers of the future. The divergence of opinion over the effects and magnitude of the energy crisis or the future impact which environmental lobbying will have an petrochemical location makes it impossible to make projections with certainty. Consequently, they try to make explicit their assumptions and the uncertainty involved in some of these assumptions so that the reader can easily adjust their estimates in light of alternative hypotheses. Wherever possible, they rely on published predictions by industry experts. 36 references, 17 figures, 11 tables.

Book excerpt: In The Place with No Edge, Adam Mandelman follows three centuries of human efforts to inhabit and control the lower Mississippi River delta, the vast watery flatlands spreading across much of southern Louisiana. He finds that people’s use of technology to tame unruly nature in the region has produced interdependence with—rather than independence from—the environment. Created over millennia by deposits of silt and sand, the Mississippi River delta is one of the most dynamic landscapes in North America. From the eighteenth-century establishment of the first French fort below New Orleans to the creation of Louisiana’s Coastal Master Plan in the 2000s, people have attempted to harness and master this landscape through technology. Mandelman examines six specific interventions employed in the delta over time: levees, rice flumes, pullboats, geophysical surveys, dredgers, and petroleum cracking. He demonstrates that even as people seemed to gain control over the environment, they grew more deeply intertwined with—and vulnerable to—it. The greatest folly, Mandelman argues, is to believe that technology affords mastery. Environmental catastrophes of coastal land loss and petrochemical pollution may appear to be disconnected, but both emerged from the same fantasy of harnessing nature to technology. Similarly, the levee system’s failures and the subsequent deluge after Hurricane Katrina owe as much to centuries of human entanglement with the delta as to global warming’s rising seas and strengthening storms. The Place with No Edge advocates for a deeper understanding of humans’ relationship with nature. It provides compelling evidence that altering the environment—whether to make it habitable, profitable, or navigable —inevitably brings a response, sometimes with unanticipated consequences. Mandelman encourages a mindfulness of the ways that our inventions engage with nature and a willingness to intervene in responsible, respectful ways.
