Book Handbook of Image Processing Operators

Download or read book Handbook of Image Processing Operators written by Reinhard Klette and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 1996-05-09 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Handbook of Image Processing Operators Reinhard Klette Berlin Technical University, Germany Piero Zamperoni Braunschweig Technical University, Germany The practical applications of digital image processing have expanded significantly in recent years. Interest is increasing over a wide range of disciplines, from computer vision to biomedical imaging and mechanical inspection. An invaluable reference source for all who work in image processing, this text describes the complete range of standard image processing operators and transformations. Coverage spans the fundamentals of image processing, introducing the basic terminology, describing the general control structures and illustrating a range of algorithmical procedures. The major strength of this book lies in its practical approach, offering the user operative solutions to a broad range of specific application problems in image analysis, image enhancement and feature extraction. To this end it serves as a reference to select the most suitable operators for any given problem. After the introductory chapters, each operator is presented in the same form: characterization, mathematical definition, comments and algorithmic aspects, pseudo-program, and bibliographic references. An indispensable guide for computer applications engineers at a professional, academic or research level in communications, natural sciences, medicine, and robotics who have to solve field-specific application problems using advanced digital image processing techniques. The source codes for all the operators described in the text are available on disk for UNIX and MS-DOS systems, see inside for details.

Book Handbook of Solid Waste Management

Download or read book Handbook of Solid Waste Management written by George Tchobanoglous and published by McGraw Hill Professional. This book was released on 2002-07-13 with total page 834 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a world where waste incinerators are not an option and landfills are at over capacity, cities are hard pressed to find a solution to the problem of what to do with their solid waste. Handbook of Solid Waste Management, 2/e offers a solution. This handbook offers an integrated approach to the planning, design, and management of economical and environmentally responsible solid waste disposal system. Let twenty industry and government experts provide you with the tools to design a solid waste management system capable of disposing of waste in a cost-efficient and environmentally responsible manner. Focusing on the six primary functions of an integrated system--source reduction, toxicity reduction, recycling and reuse, composting, waste- to-energy combustion, and landfilling--they explore each technology and examine its problems, costs, and legal and social ramifications.

Book The Solid Waste Handbook

Download or read book The Solid Waste Handbook written by William D. Robinson and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 1991-01-16 with total page 1330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive, single-source reference of current issues in solid waste management designed as an aid in decision-making and assessment of future trends. Covers public perceptions, legislation, regulation, planning and financing, and technologies and operation. Reviews the evolution of waste management since the passage of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, amended in 1978, 1980 and 1984. Examines common and divergent public and private concerns, including an in-depth review of public perceptions and their effect on planning and implementation. Also includes a discussion of the inadequacies of most waste quantity and composition estimates, with techniques for adequate evaluation. Looks at the misunderstanding and controversy over source separation and issues in municipal resource recovery from the viewpoint of the private scrap process industry. Also includes an unprecedented examination of the problem of bulky waste logistics and its effect on current disposal practice, and case histories and the current status of energy recovery from industrial waste. With over 500 tables, graphs, and illustrations.

Book Sustainable Practices for Landfill Design and Operation

Download or read book Sustainable Practices for Landfill Design and Operation written by Timothy G. Townsend and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-07-16 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solid waste management is a global concern, and landfilling remains the predominant management method in most areas of the world. This book provides a comprehensive view of state-of-the-art methods to manage landfills more sustainably, drawing upon more than two decades of research, design, and operational experiences at operating sites across the world. Sustainable landfills implement one or multiple technologies to control and enhance the degradation of waste materials to realize a multitude of potential benefits during or shortly after the landfill’s operating phase. This book presents detailed approaches in the development, design, operation, and monitoring of sustainable landfills. Case studies showcasing the benefits and challenges of sustainable landfill technologies are also provided to give the reader additional context. The intent of the book is to serve as a reference guide for regulatory personnel, a practical tool for designers and engineers to build on for site-specific applications of sustainable landfill technologies, and a comprehensive resource for researchers who are continuing to explore new and better ways to more sustainably manage waste materials.
