The thesis provides a presentation of the two conceptual models of industrial system material and energy flows in terms of sustainability; the dominant and the unsustainable throughput flow model and the potential future sustainable roundput model. These two material and energy flow concepts serve to illustrate the main research agenda of the emerging research and practical field of industrial ...

New waste management legislation provides a driver for materials recovery, industrial ecology, and remanufacturing practices throughout the global electronics industry. Paradoxically, the resulting regulations are incongruent and unsustainable because the targeted practitioners can neither legally re-use the resultant reclaimed materials nor legally store or dispose of the ensuing wastes.

Environmental pollution is the major problem associated with rapid industrialization, urbanization and rise in living standards of people. Efforts has to be made for controlling pollution arising out of the disposal of wastes by conversion of these unwanted wastes into utilizable raw materials for various beneficial uses. The problems relating to disposal of industrial solid wastes are associat...

Industrial pollution prevention has been incorporated into several aspects of the chemical engineering curriculum at The University of Tennessee. One is an industrial internship program. This technology selection example focuses on a case from a pilot internship project sponsored by a pesticide manufacturer. This project involved synthesis and evaluation of waste management strategies for reduc...

This paper describes a methodology for estimating the true internal costs of construction waste, aimed at promoting environmentally friendly waste management. The study employs cost-benefit analysis, contribution margin analysis, the polluter-pays principle and a mathematical model: the model for Efficient Use of Resources for Optimal Production Economy (EUROPE), which has been introduced previ...
