Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. 1.1 Life Cycle Assessment (LeA): a fascinating and sophisticated tool The greening of the economy is not a new task, but it is a challenge for which a lot of tasks still have to be done. It is known that the main source of environ mental deterioration by industry is not any more the chimneys and other process related emissions, but the products and services produced. Products are regarded as carriers of polIution: they are not only a potential source of polIution and waste during their use; they are also a cause of resource depletion, energy consumption, and emissions du ring their life...

Green Industrial Restructuring: International Case Studies and Theoretical Interpretations
ISBN: 9783642086892 / Angielski / Miękka / 434 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Structural change in basic industries is usually interpreted as an autonomous economic process. Some authors claim that there is a tendency to use the "end of the era of materials," thus resulting in a decline of the basic industries. Such a process would obviously benefit the environment. Classic economic theories, which deal with structural change in a rather holistic way, correspond to this trend, predicting either a shift towards manufacturing and services or a relocation of old basic industries to developing countries. On the basis of this dematerialization hypothesis, comparative case...

The Potential for Ground Source Heat Pumps in Domestic Houses in the UK
ISBN: 9781907962325 / Angielski / Miękka / 104 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Ground source heat pumps are a very successful renewable technology used in many countries, so why are they less popular in the UK?

They clearly have the potential to greatly help the UK to reduce its environmental impact. This book looks into existing case studies of heat pumps in the UK to determine whether they should be widely installed in domestic properties. Different factors are considered such as financial viability,...
