Environmental Flow Assessment – An Analysis

Economic Analysis and Environmental Assessment

Successful economic development depends on the rational use of natural resources and on reducing as far as possible the adverse environmental impacts of development projects. Environmental assessment (EA) is a primary tool for achieving this objective, by inserting critical environmental information into the process of project identification, preparation, and implementation. Economic analysis, ...

Transgenic Crops: An Environmental Assessment

Heat flow assessment in an underground mine: An approach to improve the environmental conditions1

The generation of heat in underground spaces due to working activities is a factor that influences production and productivity rates. This paper analyses the heat generation in an underground mine and provides a number of approaches to enhance the ventilation conditions using electrical, instead of diesel machines. This assessment has been carried out using theoretical equations and modelling s...
