It is one of the important topics of even any government?s agenda as well and every nation is trying its best to reduce its carbon footprint to the maximum possible extent. Every company would like to reduce the carbon footprint of its products and consumers are looking for the products which emit lower carbon emissions in their entire life cycle. Assessment of Carbon footprint for different products, processes and services and also carbon labelling of products have become familiar topics in the recent past in various industrial sectors. Every industry has its unique assessment and modelling techniques, allocation procedures, mitigation methods and labelling strategies for its carbon emissions. With this background, this book has been framed with dedicated chapters on carbon footprint assessment on various industrial sectors. In each chapter, details pertaining to the assessment methodologies of carbon footprint followed in a particular industry, challenges in calculating the carbon footprint, case studies of various products in that particular industry, mitigation measures to be followed to trim down the carbon footprint, recommendations for further research are discussed in detail. This first volume includes the carbon footprint assessment methodology of agricultural sector, telecommunication sector, food sector, ceramic industry, packaging industry, building and construction sector and solid waste sector. 410 0$aEcoProduction, Environmental Issues in Logistics and Manufacturing,$x2193-4614 606 $aEnvironmental management 606 $aProduction management 606 $aIndustrial engineering 606 $aProduction engineering 606 $aEnvironmental engineering 606 $aBiotechnology 606 $aSustainable development 606 $aEnvironmental Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U17009 606 $aOperations Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/519000 606 $aIndustrial and Production Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T22008 606 $aEnvironmental Engineering/Biotechnology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U33000 606 $aSustainable Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000 615 0$aEnvironmental management. 615 0$aProduction management. 615 0$aIndustrial engineering. 615 0$aProduction engineering. 615 0$aEnvironmental engineering. 615 0$aBiotechnology. 615 0$aSustainable development. 615 14$aEnvironmental Management. 615 24$aOperations Management. 615 24$aIndustrial and Production Engineering. 615 24$aEnvironmental Engineering/Biotechnology. 615 24$aSustainable Development. 676 $a658.4083 702 $aMuthu$b Subramanian Senthilkannan$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298389303321 996 $aAssessment of Carbon Footprint in Different Industrial Sectors, Volume 1$92540333 997 $aUNINA
