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 ...

Basic, nuts and bolts structural geology is the unheralded success story central to brownfields exploration that in Australia, globally, has grown manyfold mineral deposits beyond start-of-mine Reserve. Since last (2012) meeting on applied Resources, topic changed dramatically. Now, practised daily house by most mining companies.KEY POINTSA diversity of settings, host rocks, control geometry ma...

Urban planning is a challenge, especially when it comes to limiting land take. In former industrial regions such as Wallonia, the presence of large number brownfields, here called “redevelopment sites”, opens up new opportunities for sustainable urban through their revalorization. The Walloon authorities are currently managing an inventory more than 2200 sites, which requires significant amount...

Urban intensification seems to be a growing trend, especially in the context of severe land scarcity. Brownfields offer great potential meeting increasing demand for housing major cities worldwide. Redevelopment projects appear provide immediate solutions shortages that are being experienced due population pressures large metropolitan areas. The paper explores range factors property developers ...

This paper examines the transformation of brownfield sites and places occupied by old industrial activities in Romania, focusing on a medium-sized town since small- towns are mainly overlooked current scientific debates. These frequently followed similar development patterns to large cities, but at different paces local urban regeneration. We conducted case study Romanian Lugoj, one most import...

Utilizing culture as a tool for the regeneration of industrial brownfields represents fairly new trend in post-socialist Europe. This topic has garnered some academic attention; however, studies primarily originate from EU member states, whereas examples non-EU cities remains largely unexplored. In addition, literature dealing with temporary creative use derelict sites is scarce. The case study...
