New Homelands: Hindu Communities in Mauritius, Guyana, Trinidad, South Africa, Fiji, and East Africa
ISBN: 9780195391640 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. When the colonial slave trade, and then slavery itself, were abolished early in the 19th century, the British empire brazenly set up a new system of trade using Indian rather than African laborers. The new system of "indentured" labor was supposed to be different from slavery because the indenture, or contract, was written for an initial period of five years and involved fixed wages and some specified conditions of work. From the workers' point of view, the one redeeming feature of the system was that most of their workmates spoke their language and came from the same area of India. Because...

ISBN: 9781402001383 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 442 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych.

In many cases, polluted mine water long outlives the life of the mining operation. As the true cost of long-term water treatment responsibilities has become apparent, interest has grown in the technologies that would decrease the production of contaminated water and make its treatment less costly. This is the...

Geothermal Energy: Delivering on the Global Potential
ISBN: 9783038421337 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 430 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. After decades of being largely the preserve of countries in volcanic regions, the use of geothermal energy--for both heat and power applications--is now expanding worldwide. This reflects its excellent low-carbon credentials and its ability to offer baseload and dispatchable output - rare amongst the mainstream renewables. Yet uptake of geothermal still lags behind that of solar and wind, principally because of (i) uncertainties over resource availability in poorly-explored reservoirs and (ii) the concentration of full-lifetime costs into early-stage capital expenditure (capex). Recent... After decades of being largely the preserve of countries in volcanic regions, the use of geothermal energy--for both heat and power applications--i... |
