Dieses Buch interpretiert die wirtschaftlichen und sozialen Vorteile, die durch Null-Abfall entstehen. Beginnend mit der allgemeinen Geschichte des Abfalls, seinem Mechanismus und seinen verschiedenen Kategorien, untersucht dieses Buch zunächst das Abfallmanagement und die Ressourcentechnologie weltweit in der heutigen Zeit. Danach erläutert es das Konzept und die Praktiken von Null-Abfall, diskutiert über die Beziehung zwischen Null-Abfall und Öko-Design sowie über relevante internationale Standards. Schließlich weist es darauf hin, dass Null-Abfall der Weg von der linearen Wirtschaft zur Kreislaufwirtschaft sein könnte, gestützt durch Theorien und Praktiken. Dieses Buch bietet Unternehmen und Organisationen eine klare Richtung in Umweltfragen. Es kann auch als Handbuch für nachhaltige Entwicklungsstrategien für Führungskräfte in Unternehmen und Organisationen verwendet werden.

This book interprets the economic benefits and social benefits brought about by zero waste. Beginning with the general history of waste, its mechanism and different categories, this book first explores waste management and resourcing technology around the world nowadays. It then elaborates on the concept and practices of zero waste, discussing about the relationship between zero waste and eco-design, and about relative international standards. At last, it points out that zero waste could be the pathway from linear economy to circular economy, backed up by theories and practices. This book offers a clear direction for companies and organizations about environment. It can also be used as a sustainable development strategy handbook for executives in companies and organizations.

Machinery Dynamics includes recent advancements in this quickly evolving area, while also analyzing real applications, analyzing integrated systems, and including further discussions on each mechanical component. The book treats mechanisms separately, with different methods depending on the level of accuracy required. The contents of this book is made to suit the needs of MsC and PhD students, researchers and engineers in the areas of design of high speed machinery, condition monitoring of machine operation, and vibration.

This book explores the history of mechanical engineering since the Bronze Age. Focusing on machinery inventions and the development of mechanical technology, it also discusses the machinery industry and modern mechanical education. The evolution of machinery is divided into three stages: Ancient (before the European Renaissance), Modern (mainly including the two Industrial Revolutions) and Contemporary (since the Revolution in Physics, especially post Second World War). The book not only clarifies the development of mechanical engineering, but also reveals the driving forces behind it – e.g. the economy, national defense and human scientific research activities – to highlight the links between technology and society; mechanical engineering and the natural sciences; and mechanical engineering and related technological areas. Though mainly intended as a textbook or supplemental reading for graduate students, the book also offers a unique resource for researchers and engineers inmechanical engineering who wish to broaden their horizons.

This book discusses environmental management and construction management approaches to the environmental problems that can emerge in construction projects. It sets a brand new standard for environmental management in mega construction projects in China and helps all construction project stakeholders establish a more compliant and efficient environmental management system. The authors systematically explore management systems and team management, offering managerial methods and tips based on international and Chinese practices. Outlining all the environmental challenges that can arise during construction, it is a valuable resource for company owners, construction contractors, and construction management consultants and companies. It also offers useful insights for engineers, project managers and project executives.
