Soil engineering in vivo: harnessing natural biogeochemical systems for sustainable, multi-functional engineering solutions.
Carbon sequestration, infrastructure rehabilitation, brownfields clean-up, hazardous waste disposal, water resources protection and global warming-these twenty-first century challenges can neither be solved by the high-energy consumptive practices that hallmark industry today, nor by minor tweaking or optimization of these processes. A more radical, holistic approach is required to develop the ...
متن کاملTeaching Sustainable Engineering
In some ways, sustainable engineering may be thought of as the operational arm of industrial ecology: first use the methodologies of industrial ecology, such as life-cycle assessment, materials flow accounting, or product and process matrix analysis, to determine relevant social and environmental considerations; then use sustainable engineering methods to integrate that knowledge into process, ...
متن کاملSustainable engineering triggers advancements in engineering modeling
The push for greener, sustainable design is universal. Whether it’s in the cars we drive or where we get our energy for our houses, green design has left the periphery of modern engineering and is now a dominant influence in contemporary engineering, often even the most important factor. In essence, sustainable design is designing to do more with less. The green road, however, is turning out to...
متن کاملSolutions Innovation, Solutions Engineering for Industry Solutions
What is Innovation? It’s not always about inventing something entirely new. Innovation occurs at the intersection of invention and business insight. Creating industry solutions is not about doing something new for every client’s problem, it is about creatively solving business problems with reusable assets or building blocks. It is about using a systematic process to solve clients business and ...
متن کاملEthics, engineering, and sustainable development
T he term 'sustainable devel-opment' dates back to the early 1970s when certain business and government leaders began to argue that exponential growth —in human populations and industrial-ization — simply cannot continue indefinitely. One such group of leaders, the Club of Rome, issued a report, Limits to Growth, now recognized as a cornerstone piece of literature for the movement. In a tone so...
