The main aim of this book is to illustrate circular models for sustainable resource management. It highlights the benefits of transformative approaches in integrating, simplifying, and facilitating understanding of complex systems and transforming systems towards greater sustainability while achieving multiple social, economic, and environmental outcomes. It provides pathways towards strategic policy decisions on socio-economic transformation supported by case studies.Features:Discusses exploration of a transitional path to the circular economy, explored from the point of view of waste and technology.Explains transformational change towards sustainable socio-ecological interactions.Reviews provision of pathways towards sustainability through scenario development.Provides assessment of progress towards Sustainable Development Goals.Presents cross-sectoral and multicentric approaches towards circularity.This book is aimed at researchers and professionals in water and environmental engineering, circular economy, sustainability, and environmental studies.The Open Access version of this book, available at www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons [Attribution-Non-Commercial (CC-BY-NC)] 4.0 license.

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
The book seeks to cover the application of the principles of the circular economy within the context of the processing and waste management industry in sub-Saharan Africa. It includes topics related to the circular economy and the sustainable use of resources in the mining, process industry, and waste management sectors, and examines how some resources from these sectors, currently treated as “waste”, can be converted into secondary resources that can help drive economic development.Features:Describes fundamental environmental and process engineering principles to understand waste valorization technologies.Covers sustainable solid waste management and recovery of resources from solid waste from an African perspective.Provides guidelines for specific approaches to long-term sustainable waste management.Includes alternative waste treatment technologies in order of priority as per the waste hierarchy.Introduces pertinent industry-specific case studies, worked examples, and problems.This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in environmental and chemical engineering and waste treatment.

The growing need for sustainable energy solutions has driven research into co-combustion processes, where coal is blended with biomass to reduce emissions and enhance efficiency. This book overviews best practices to optimise the combustion processes through the use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, focusing particularly on solid fuel combustion modelling. It equips the reader with an understanding of combustion parameter optimisation and modelling from a thermodynamic-fluid dynamic-mass transfer perspective.Key featuresOffers a specialised approach to solid fuel co-combustion, using CFD to model and optimise combustion processes for sustainable energy solutionsCombines theoretical and practical applications, with a focus on energy optimisation and emissions reductionIncludes modelling of complex phenomena such as multiphase and reaction modellingGives insights into important sub-models required during combustion modelling, forming the basis of reliable modelsContains detailed case studies and real-world applicationsThis book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in thermodynamics, combustion, energy engineering, fluid dynamics, and clean energy processes.
