This book examines ways of assessing the rational management of
nonrenewable resources. Integrating numerous methods, it
systematically exposes the strengths of exergy analysis in
resources management. Divided into two parts, the first section
provides the theoretical background to assessment methods, while
the second section provides practical application examples. The
topics covered in detail include the theory of exergy cost and
thermo-ecological cost, cumulative calculus and life cycle
evaluation. This book serves as a valuable resource for researchers
looking to investigate a range of advanced thermodynamic
assessments of the influence of production processes on the
depletion of nonrenewable resources.

Thermo-ecology: Exergy as a Measure of Sustainability integrates
thermo-ecology and exergy replacement cost as a new and original
tool called thermo-ecology cost, or TEC. This tool allows for a
more inclusive measurement of the impacts of using renewable and
non-renewable resources by including the thermodynamics law in
decision-making and presenting applications of this tool across
industries and lifecycle assessments. It includes ways to
investigate these effects more effectively by combining these
critical aspects. This combination has emerged as a valuable
decision-support tool for policymakers and the industry as they
seek to evaluate the impacts of a product or process.
