The Evaluation of Residential Solid Waste Management Policies
ISBN: 9783639099287 / Angielski / Miękka / 112 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Most large cities have waste crises, and the majority
of municipal solid waste (MSW) comes from residents rather than businesses. The introduction of a unit-pricing policy in Taipei decreased residential solid waste (RSW) by 33% and almost doubled the recycling in the first two years. Most communities including Taipei use a mixed RSW policy. This work evaluates RSW policies. It differs from previous studies because of the following reasons. Firstly, the disposal option of waste storing or composting is considered in the household behavior model. Secondly, the waste collection characteristics...

Subtropical Marine Low Clouds and Surface Wind Distributions
ISBN: 9783639096736 / Angielski / Miękka / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is designed to represent subtropical marine stratus and stratocumulus (MSC) and surface winds in a simple but physical consistent way, which has applications in climate modeling and offshore wind energy development. A simple low cloud cover scheme is developed in Chapter 2, in which the variation of MSC is formulated by connecting low cloud amount with lower tropospheric stability (LTS), large-scale subsidence, and dynamical transport of available dry inhibition energy below trade wind inversion. The new scheme produces realistic seasonal and inter-annual variations of MSC amounts...

Building façades and thermal comfort
ISBN: 9783639098242 / Angielski / Miękka / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. There is currently a trend of designing new commercial buildings with large glazed facades. Maintaining comfort in the perimeter zones of these buildings is difficult due to their transmittance of solar radiation and exposure to cold outdoor air temperature. Designing these buildings with high-performance facades, however, can improve energy performance, provide a high-quality thermal and visual environment, and reduce thermal loads. This book presents an experimental and simulation study of the indoor thermal environment of a perimeter zone office with glass facade and solar shading device....

Biodegradation of Pesticides
ISBN: 9781468440904 / Angielski / Miękka / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When first developed, chlorinated pesticides such as DDT, dieldrin, and mirex were received with open arms, quickly becoming popular as effective, economic agents against pests. But evidence began to mount that residues of these chemicals remained in the environment, not breaking down, often appearing in plants and animals. By the late seventies many pesticides had achieved a terrible notoriety and were subsequently banned in a number of countries. Of tremendous concern, then, is the persistence of pesticides in the environment. The major thrust of research and development in the area of...

Fluidized Bed Combustion and Identification
ISBN: 9783639173154 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The disposal of municipal solid waste (MWS) is a growing problem worldwide because of the increasing volume of the waste and the negative impact on the environment, health and safety. Among the combustion and incineration technologies, fluidized bed combustion is becoming more popular because of its ability to handle a variety of waste and advantages in controlling emission. However, in the high moisture content wastes with low calorific value, co-firing wastes with a supplementary fuel such as coal is being tried in many industrial and utility boilers. In order to ensure that these co-firing...
