Geoengineering Our Climate?: Ethics, Politics and Governance
ISBN: 9781849713740 / Angielski / Miękka / 290 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Geoengineering - the planetary scale engineering of the climate system - is expected to receive increasingly serious consideration by states seeking ways to manage the most dangerous risks of climate change. Agreeing on a governance framework in which even serious research into geoengineering technologies can take place presents an immense international political challenge. In this important book, a collection of experts from the domains of science, science policy, politics, law, governance, ethics and civil society provide the essential foundation on which the debate can be built....

Fly Ash-derived Glass Ceramic Materials
ISBN: 9783639362480 / Angielski / Miękka / 116 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Over recent years, increased environmental awareness and stringent regulatory codes have significantly influenced the way we manage municipal solid waste (MSW). Incineration has become a widely accepted alternative to conventional landfilling. However, this method generates unstable bottom and fly ash residues. Fly ash is regarded more hazardous on account of its fine size and highly toxic constituents, and, therefore, requires further inertisation treatment prior to disposal. Vitrification is very effective in the containment of fly ash. This rather costly, energy-intensive method converts...
