"Engineering for Sustainable Development: Theory and Practice bridges the gap between engineering and sustainability, encompassing theory, practices and case studies. It provides an introduction to the sustainable development agenda and sustainable technology development, and also covers practical methods and tools for the development and implementation of sustainable solutions. This book is divided into four parts: Engineering Sustainability Challenges; Sustainability Assessment Tools; Sustainable Engineering solutions; and Conclusions. Topics covered include life cycle analysis, industrial symbiosis, industrial ecology and green engineering principles, sustainability matrix and eco-efficiency for developing sustainable engineering solutions. Engineering for Sustainable Development: Theory and Practice includes a wide range of industry applications, including civil, mechanical, electrical and chemical engineering, and is accompanied by a website hosting website hosting additional case studies, video clips, research articles and workshop activities"-- Provided by publisher.
