This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Little is known about the volume of international recycling in Asia, the problems caused and the struggle to properly manage the trade. This pathbreaking book addresses this gap in the literature, and provides a comprehensive overview of the international trade flow of recyclable waste in Asia and related issues. The expert contributors discuss the various types of recyclable waste that Asian countries import, and illustrate that there are consequently higher numbers of cheaper informal recyclers with lower pollution control costs than formal recyclers with more expensive but environmentally sound technologies. They explore how governments across China, Vietnam, South Korea and Japan are therefore struggling to minimize the negative impact from informal recycling via trade regulation of recyclable and hazardous waste and comprehensive cooperation mechanisms to promote efficient use of resources. Preventive measures against illegal and/or improper transboundary movement of hazardous waste in Asia are also analyzed. This unique and fascinating book aims to facilitate a common understanding of the issues caused by international recycling in Asia to encourage effective international and regional cooperation in order to establish a sound recycling system. As such, it will prove an invaluable resource to academics, researchers and students with an interest in Asian studies, economics, environmental studies, international economics and industrial economics.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What role should governments play in protecting the environment and controlling the environmental impacts of industry? Do regulations benefit the environment? And how do they affect industrial innovation? Since the early 1970s, regulations have been used to coerce producers of goods and services into internalizing the environmental costs of production. These efforts have often faced opposition on practical and ideological grounds. Beginning in the 1980s, there has been a movement toward liberalization, coupled with the continued failure of the market to protect the environment as a public good. As a result, private and public sector interests have been debating the appropriate role of governments in protecting and improving the environment and controlling the environmental impact of industry. Using case studies from numerous countries, this book examines political and industrial trends and the responses to these challenges. The authors conclude that the complexities of environmental and economic relationships disallow universal solutions, and they stress the need for context-specific perspectives on the role of regulatory measures in environmental innovation.

This book was released on 2003 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper describes benchmarking activities undertaken to provide a basis for comparing the U.S. wood furniture industry with other nations that have a globally competitive furniture manufacturing industry. The second part of this paper outlines and discusses strategies that have the potential to help the U.S. furniture industry survive and thrive in a global business environment. A case is made for a paradigm shift in the business of designing, manufacturing, marketing, and distributing wooden furniture, as it is perhaps the most promising vehicle for our industry to sustain a prosperous U.S. manufacturing base into the future. Furthermore, a change in business models b1s a paradigm shift is proposed to avoid cost-based competition with low-cost producers such as those located in Asia and South America.

Download or read book Siting Noxious Facilities written by Michael R Greenberg and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-20 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Siting Noxious Facilities explains and illustrates processes and criteria used to site noxious manufacturing and waste management facilities. It proposes a framework that integrates economic location analysis and risk analysis, emphasizing the reduction of uncertainty. This book begins by defining noxious facilities and considers the important role of manufacturing in the world economy, before going on to describe the historical practices used in locating these facilities for much of the twentieth century. It then shifts focus to analyze the complex set of considerations in the twenty-first century that mean that any facility that produces annoying smells and sounds, is unsightly and emits hazardous substances has had the bar of acceptability markedly raised for economic, environmental, social and political acceptability. Drawing on case study examples that highlight pollution prevention, choosing locations at major plants (CLAMP), negotiations, and surrendering control of an activity, Greenberg presents a hybrid framework that advocates the amalgamation of industrial location processes with human health and environmental-oriented risk analysis. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of location economics, environmental science, risk analysis and land-use planning. It will also be of great relevance to decision-makers and their major advisers who must make choices about siting noxious facilities.

Download or read book The Complete Guide on Industrial Pollution Control written by H. Panda and published by ASIA PACIFIC BUSINESS PRESS Inc.. This book was released on 2011-10-02 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Industrialization is the process of social and economic change that transforms a human group from a pre-industrial society into an industrial one. It is a part of a wider modernization process, where social change and economic development are closely related with technological innovation, particularly with the development of large scale energy and metallurgy production. Industrial pollution hurts the environment in a range of ways, and it has a negative impact on human lives and health. Pollutants can kill animals and plants, imbalance ecosystems, degrade air quality radically, damage buildings, and generally degrade quality of life. India is a home to many industries. The sectors include Iron and Steel, Pulp and Paper, Food Processing, Chemicals, Aluminium Industry, Cement, Pharmaceuticals, Machine tools, Surface finishing Industries etc. However, the industrial growth happening at a breakneck speed has resulted in a significant contribution to the toxicity in the environment. Therefore industrial activities should comply with regulatory norms for prevention and control of pollution. There have been many guidelines for the industries and the pollution caused by them. The setup and implementation of these guidelines is a joint responsibility of the central and state governments along with the Central Pollution Control Board to curb such emissions. At present, the control of pollution from industrial installations remains a key issue in India. As urbanisation expands and cities grow the need to deal with the environmental impact becomes even more important to ensure sustainable development. This also entails handling increasing volumes of waste water. Efficient wastewater management exploiting the capacity optimally requires a thorough understanding of the pollutions sources origin and substance. Hence pollution sources must be mapped and identified. This book is designed to assist in the identification and implementation of a cost effective program for industrial pollution monitoring, control, and abatement within the context of institutional and financial constraints present in India. The book is a complete guide on industrial pollution control in important industries like Iron and Steel, Pulp and Paper, Food processing, Chemicals, Aluminium industry, Cement, Pharmaceuticals, Paint industry and many more. This book will be very resourceful to all its readers, students, entrepreneurs, technical institution, scientist, etc. TAGS How to Start Industrial Pollution management Industry in India, Industrial Pollution management Industry in India, Industrial Pollution management & Industrial Pollution management Based Profitable Projects, Industrial Pollution management Projects, Small Industrial Pollution management Projects, Starting a Industrial Pollution management Business, How to Start a Industrial Pollution management Business, Industrial Pollution management Based Small Scale Industries Projects, new small scale ideas in Industrial Pollution management industry, NPCS, Niir, Process technology books, Business consultancy, Business consultant, Project identification and selection, Preparation of Project Profiles, Startup, Business guidance, Business guidance to clients, Startup Project for Industrial Pollution management, Startup Project, Startup ideas, Project for startups, Startup project plan, Business start-up, Business Plan for a Startup Business, Great Opportunity for Startup, Small Start-up Business Project, Start-up Business Plan for Industrial Pollution management, Start Up India, Stand Up India, Industrial Pollution management Making Small Business Manufacturing, Small scale Industrial Pollution management machine, Industrial Pollution management making machine factory, Modern small and cottage scale industries, Profitable small and cottage scale industries, Setting up and opening your Industrial Pollution management Business, How to Start a Industrial Pollution management Business?, How to start a successful Industrial Pollution management business, Small scale Commercial Industrial Pollution management making, Best small and cottage scale industries, Industrial Pollution management Business, Profitable Small Scale Manufacturing, Treatment to Reduce Disposal , Economic Evaluation in Pollution Prevention Programs, Machining and Other Metal Working Operations , Solvents Used for Cleaning, Refrigeration and Other Uses , Metal Plating and Surface Finishing , Painting and Coating , Removal of Paint and Coatings , Motor Oil and Antifreeze, Aluminium Industry, Construction and Demolition, Electric Utilities, Food Processing, Iron and Steel, Petroleum Exploration and Refining, Pharmaceuticals, Pulp and Paper Industry, Air Pollution Control Equipment, How to control industrial pollution, Waste Treatment and Disposal Methods, reuse, recycling, resource recovery, treatment and disposal, types of waste disposal methods, solid waste disposal methods, waste treatment methods, waste disposal problems, Electroplating & Surface Finishing, metal surface finishing process, surface treatment process, environmental regulation, chemical treatment, cleaning and degreasing, cold cleaning, vapor cleaning, precision cleaning, refrigerant, Nickel Plating, chrome plating, cadmium and zinc plating, copper, gold, silver, and tin plating, techniques to reduce plating waste, electro dialysis, powder coating, electrostatic painting, rendering, scalding
