The rapid pace of economic development and urbanization in Asia have led to several major problems such as greenhouse gas emissions, mass consumption, and depletion of natural resources.
This book provides a detailed coverage of how the circular economy aims to change the paradigm in relation to the linear economy, by limiting the environmental impact and waste of resources, as well as increasing efficiency at all stages of the product economy.
This book examines the presence of stochastic and deterministic convergence in ten series of greenhouse gases, aerosol precursors, and aerosols across 29 industrialized and emerging countries from 1820 to 2018.
The global energy crisis is a two-dimensional phenomenon: on the one hand, the gap between a continuously depleting supply capacity of fossil fuel and rapidly increasing demand for energy is fast widening, and, on the other, the burning of fossil fuels intensifies the problem of global warming day by day.
Water Treatment: Resource Recovery and Sustainability provides a comprehensive overview of the latest research in increasing the sustainability of water treatment processes.
The book describes the results of the AGaStor Project's social research carried out in northwestern Poland which recognizes the main social opportunities and barriers to the introduction of CCUS to society.
Transparency and Public Participation for Radioactive Waste Management in Europe investigates how the pillars of the Aarhus Convention, and a broader understanding of transparency by Civil Society (CS), can be transposed into Radioactive Waste Management (RWM), particularly in the establishment of Radioactive Waste (RW) facilities in different national contexts.
Electrification and the Future of Decentralized Electricity Supply addresses the role of electrification in the energy transition by examining what an electrified future entails, how it can be achieved, and the challenges that must be overcome to succeed.
Energy Efficiency in Critical Times: Security, Economics, and Transition provides a holistic perspective on energy policy analysis and development from a global context, covering economic, security, and technological aspects.
Oil and gas are important to every aspect of our economy, yet the oil and gas industry is distinguished by its combination of increasing demands and decreasing discovery volumes--and it is an industry shrouded in an environment of extremely volatile pricing.
