Waste to Renewable Biohydrogen, Volume Two: Numerical Modelling and
Sustainability Assessment provides an integrated approach on the
experimental, modeling and sustainability aspects of
waste-to-biohydrogen systems. The book focuses on processes for
waste treatment to hydrogen production, delving into modeling and
simulation methodologies for the design and optimization of
different processes and systems. In addition, it looks at the
application of computational fluid dynamics and artificial neural
networks. Finally, it addresses the economic, environmental and
sustainability implications of waste-to-biohydrogen systems,
covering several techniques for cost-benefit analysis,
techno-economic analysis, lifecycle assessment, sustainability
ranking and supply chain design. This well-rounded reference
supports decision-making for energy researchers and industry
practitioners alike, but it is also ideal for graduate students,
early career researchers and waste management professionals.
Waste to Renewable Biohydrogen: Volume 1: Advances in Theory and
Experiments provides a comprehensive overview of the advances,
processes and technologies for waste treatment to hydrogen
production. It introduces and compares the most widely adopted and
most promising technologies, such as dark fermentation,
thermochemical and photosynthetic processes. In this part,
potential estimation, feasibility analysis, feedstock pretreatment,
advanced waste-to-biohydrogen processes and each individual systems
element are examined. The book delves into the theoretical and
experimental studies for the design and optimization of different
waste-to-biohydrogen processes and systems. Covering several
advanced waste-to-biohydrogen pretreatment and production
processes, this book investigates the future trends and the
promising pathways for biohydrogen production from waste.
This book focuses on the ways in which military installations and
small cities can implement and integrate triple net planning and
energy, water, and waste sustainability strategies into broad
installation operational management, arrive at the best decision,
create policy and communicate effectively to stakeholders. It
explores current and emerging technologies, methods, and frameworks
for energy conservation, efficiency, and renewable energy within
the context of triple net zero implementation practice. Recognizing
that the challenge extends beyond finding technological solutions
to achieve triple net zero outcomes, the contributions also address
the need for a systemic view in the planning phase, as well as
adequate communication and policy measures and incentives.
This volume of the Encyclopedia of Sustainability Science and
Technology, Second Edition, provides a broad and comprehensive view
of air pollution, extending from ground-level, localized air
quality and regional and global air quality and effects, to sensors
and measurement and air pollution control. Despite substantial
improvements in many parts of the world, globally, air pollution
remains the most hazardous environmental threat. The increasing
quality of exposure assessments, access to new and better
statistical methods, and more complete and precise health data have
led to stronger associations between air pollution exposure and
health effects. Air pollution exposure-effect relationships have
now been established for a wide variety of health outcomes, and
well documented through parallel studies in many countries around
the world using a variety of approaches and methodologies.
Assessments of the health effects in the population are now
performed on a routine basis in many countries and by many
agencies, and often these also include calculation of externalities
associated with the negative health effects. Such knowledge is
essential for pushing development towards a more sustainable
society. This volume covers topics including, but not limited to,
basic knowledge to understand foundational concepts and drivers of
regional and global air pollution in relation to air quality and
ways to sense, measure and control pollutants, while placing this
knowledge into the perspectives of health and technological
systems.
