This book was released on 2013-09-10 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ARGUMENTAIRE Les stratégies logistiques des entreprises incluent les choix d'approvisionnement et de distribution et les choix des politiques de stockage des matières, choix effectués dans un contexte réglementaire souvent complexe, avec plusieurs paliers de gouvernement et, la plupart du temps, un grand nombre d'intervenants. Pour améliorer leur rentabilité, les entreprises cherchent sans cesse à maximiser l'efficacité de leurs chaînes logistiques. Celles qui oeuvrent avec des matières dangereuses ont un défi supplémentaire : elles doivent prendre en compte les risques potentiels de ces substances pour les travailleurs, la population et l'environnement, et ce, à chacun des maillons de leur chaîne. Elles doivent donc intégrer la gestion des risques à leur processus de décisions logistiques et d'opération. Comme nous le rappelle douloureusement la tragédie de Lac- Mégantic au Québec, survenue le 6 juillet 2013, en matière de gestion des risques liés aux matières dangereuses, même les scénarios catastrophiques les plus improbables peuvent se produire. CIBLE Ce livre a pour but d'offrir aux intervenants du milieu (transporteurs, producteurs, planificateurs, législateurs) ainsi qu'aux personnes qui souhaitent en savoir davantage sur les thématiques liées aux matières dangereuses un ensemble d'informations indispensables. Les différents chapitres regroupent, d'une part, des données de première main et, d'autre part, une réflexion sur les divers aspects des stratégies logistiques et les risques associés au stockage, à la manutention et au transport des matières dangereuses.

Download or read book New Strategies in Locust Control written by Stephan Krall and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1997-12-01 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late eighties large-scale control operations were carried out to control a major desert locust upsurge in Africa. For the first time since the banning of organochlorine pesticides these operations relied mainly on non-persistent pesticides such as organophosphates and pyrethroids. The amount of pesticides sprayed and the area covered were probably the highest in the history of locust control and raised criticism with respect to efficacy, economic viability and environmental impact. As a consequence, applied research into the problem was intensified, both at the national and the international level, with the goal of finding new and environmentally sound approaches and solutions to locust and grasshopper control. Emphasis was laid on developing new control agents and techniques.

Download or read book Risk Analysis XII written by S. Syngellakis and published by WIT Press. This book was released on 2020-08-19 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current events help to emphasise the importance of the analysis and management of risk to planners and researchers around the world. Natural hazards such as floods, earthquakes, landslides, fires and others have always affected human societies. The more recent emergence of the importance of man-made hazards is a consequence of the rapid technological advances made in the last few centuries. The interaction of natural and anthropogenic risks adds to the complexity of the problems. Presented at the 12th International Conference on Risk Analysis and Hazard Mitigation, the included research works cover a variety of topics related to risk analysis and hazard mitigation, associated with both natural and anthropogenic hazards.

Book excerpt: Earthen architecture constitutes one of the most diverse forms of cultural heritage and one of the most challenging to preserve. It dates from all periods and is found on all continents but is particularly prevalent in Africa, where it has been a building tradition for centuries. Sites range from ancestral cities in Mali to the palaces of Abomey in Benin, from monuments and mosques in Iran and Buddhist temples on the Silk Road to Spanish missions in California. This volume's sixty-four papers address such themes as earthen architecture in Mali, the conservation of living sites, local knowledge systems and intangible aspects, seismic and other natural forces, the conservation and management of archaeological sites, research advances, and training.

Download or read book Sustainable Reverse Logistics Network written by Daoud Aït-Kadi and published by Wiley-ISTE. This book was released on 2012-03-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditional logistical chains have enabled us to respond efficiently to the needs of customers in terms of services and products. However, the returns, rejects and by-products of these activities have been eliminated or ignored. Reverse logistics aims at valuing these products using a value creation network integrating recovery, processing, recycling, distribution or clean removal processes. In the context of sustainable development, integrating economic, social and environmental factors, these activities raise questions concerning the design of products, processes and logistic networks. Taking these considerations into account involves significant changes that affect business models as well as consumer habits. New working methods and a long-term vision are the new bases for sustainable logistic networks. The objective of this book is to supply an educational tool for engineering schools, as well as a management tool for the efficient implementation of the reverse logistics function. It brings together the knowledge acquired by the scientific community. Even if reverse logistics has been the subject of several books over the past few years, very few theories have been developed and the subject is far from being exhausted. This book proposes generic concepts and processes that can be adapted to all businesses producing goods and services and which aim to integrate reverse logistics. These processes will enable us to shed light on their complexity and to take into account all the important variables. Contents 1. Logistics Challenge. 2. Reverse Logistics Engineering. 3. Ecodesign. 4. Value Loops.

Download or read book Sustainable Railway Futures written by Becky P.Y. Loo and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-03 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revitalizing railways as a major sustainable transport mode in modern societies faces many issues and challenges. This in-depth overview places the importance of railways in the wider context of comprehensive sustainability, which encompasses sustainable development, social and economic equity and community livability. Some scholars have described the 21st century as a period of renaissance for railways and suggest this transport mode can fulfil people's desire for high mobility with low negative environmental, social, economic and financial impacts. In light of these new expectations for railways, in both passenger and freight transport worldwide, this book offers the latest research insights on the renewed interest about railway expansions and their wide-ranging environmental, socio-economic and even political implications.
