Sommario/riassunto

Ground water is a source for drinking and industrial water supply and pollution created by active industrial sites which often cause social, health, and environmental problems.  This groundwater eventually drains into adjacent water sources.   Filtration Materials for Groundwater: A Guide to Good Practice presents the up-to-date technology of purification of polluted ground water, its treatment for industrial and human needs and the remediation of polluted sites.  The book examines:  Types of pollutants in ground water including the main inorganic and organic pollutants and their behaviour. Filtration materials for water treatment and principles of their choice. How to choose suitable filtration materials according to targeted compounds and estimate its efficiency. Technologies for ground water treatment. Cost and risks estimation of treatment facilities. Lifetime, risks and cost estimation of technology. Examples of modern ongoing facilities for ground water treatment and polluted sites remediation.  This book is of interest to scientists and engineer who deal with the problem of purification of ground water for different purposes and the remediation of polluted sites.

Sommario/riassunto

“This book provides a novel perspective and modelling-based solutions for energy transitions. The book is an essential read for decision makers and policymakers which seek sustainability transition.” – Mauricio Becerra-Fernandez, Director of the Master in Smart and Sustainable Cities, Universidad del Rosario, Bogotá, Colombia. This book presents a dynamics model-based perspective for attaining the energy transitions by business model innovation. It examines how dynamic business modelling and innovation studies can assist in the sustainability transitions field, highlighting the role of technological innovation system (TIS) and dynamic performance management (DPM). In the last decade, renewables have operated in the context of emerging societal transitions. Indeed, one of the current challenges for the energy sector is to transform business models in tune with shifting societal and market conditions. This work shows how dynamic business modelling captures the feedbackloops and the behaviour of performance measures to contribute the energy transitions. Besides, this book offers an in-depth discussion on innovation measurement to designing index of green technology, which it will prove useful to those studying management sciences, energy, innovation, and sustainability. Milton M. Herrera is a Professor of Logistics and Business Management at the Faculty of Economic Sciences, Universidad Militar Nueva Granada, Colombia, where he is also Senior Research Fellow in system dynamics and the Director of Contemporary Studies Group in Organization Management at the Economic Sciences Research Centre. He has published in highlighted scientific journals such as Renewable Energy, Utilities Policy, Electricity Journal and Energy. He has a scientific interest in energy transitions, business model innovation, and supply chain performance.
