Sustainable practices within the mining and energy sectors are
assuming greater significance due to uncertainty and change within
the global economy and safety, security, and health concerns. This
book examines sustainability issues facing the mining and energy
sectors by addressing six major themes: Mining and Mineral
Processing; Metallurgy and Recycling; Environment; Energy;
Socioeconomic and Regulatory; and Sustainable Materials and Fleets.
Emphasizing an integrated transdisciplinary approach, it
deliberates on optimizing mining productivity and energy efficiency
and discusses integrated waste management practices. It discusses
risk management, cost cutting, and integration of sustainable
practices for long-term business value. It gives a comprehensive
outlook for sustainable mineral futures from academic and industry
perspectives covering mine to mill optimization, waste, risk and
water management, improved efficiencies in mining tools and
equipment, and performance indicators for sustainable developments.
It covers how innovation and research underpin management of
natural resources including sustainable carbon management. *Focuses
on mining and mineral processing, metallurgy and recycling, the
environment, energy, socioeconomic and regulatory issues, and
sustainable materials and fleets. *Describes metallurgy and
recycling and uses economic, environmental and social parameter
analyses to identify areas for improvement in iron, steel,
aluminium, lead, zinc, copper, and gold production. *Discusses
current research on mining, performance indicators for sustainable
development, sustainability in mining equipment, risk and safety
management, and renewable energy resources *Covers alternative and
conventional energy sources for the mineral sector as well water
treatment and remediation and energy sustainability in mining.
*Provides an overview of sustainable carbon management. *Offers an
interdisciplinary approach with international focus.
