This book was released on 2015-01-01 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La biomasa constituye una fuente energética de gran interés, siendo en la actualidad el recurso renovable más utilizado en el planeta, sobre todo en sus formas tradicionales. Ello debe dar paso al desarrollo de técnicas avanzadas que permitan producir energía con elevadas prestaciones, altas eficiencias, bajas emisiones y a un coste competitivo. Algunas de estas tecnologías se encuentran ya en plena fase comercial y otras aún en desarrollo, abarcando una gran variedad de materiasprimas y de procesos que pueden usarse con fines energéticos muy diversos. El texto aporta una visión comprensiva de los métodos de conversión de la biomasa de acuerdo a los materiales empleados, las transformaciones necesarias y los productos energéticos obtenidos: procesos termoquímicos y por vía húmeda, a partir de biomasa primaria, cultivos y residuos, para producir biocombustibles y servicios energéticos de calor, electricidad y trabajo mecánico. Los autores son académicos, investigadores o profesionales expertos en cada uno de los capítulos, donde se analizan con detalle los componentes tecnológicos clave de los procesos,junto a otros aspectos relevantes: económicos, ambientales e institucionales. Por todo ello, la obra constituye una aportación de indudable interés en idioma español para introducirse, actualizarse oespecializarse en un campo tan prometedor como es la biomasa energética, sus tecnologías, productos y aplicaciones.

Download or read book Glosario Del Banco Mundial written by World Bank and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1996 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition of the World Bank has been revised and expanded by the Terminology Unit in the Languages Services Division of the World Bank in collaboration with the English, Spanish, and French Translation Sections. The Glossary is intended to assist the Bank's translators and interpreters, other Bank staff using French and Spanish in their work, and free-lance translator's and interpreters employed by the Bank. For this reason, the Glossary contains not only financial and economic terminology and terms relating to the Bank's procedures and practices, but also terms that frequently occur in Bank documents, and others for which the Bank has a preferred equivalent. Although many of these terms, relating to such fields as agriculture, education, energy, housing, law, technology, and transportation, could be found in other sources, they have been assembled here for ease of reference. A list of acronyms occurring frequently in Bank texts (the terms to which they refer being found in the Glossary) and a list of international, regional, and national organizations will be found at the end of the Glossary.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.
