This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Sociedad actual, atendiendo al incesante desarrollo industrial y económico, debe hacer frente a la enorme cantidad de residuos generados, debido fundamentalmente a los nuevos hábitos de consumo adquiridos por la población. Cada día son más los agentes sociales, económicos, administraciones así como Universidades que entienden que el reciclaje es sólo una parte de la respuesta, y que para poner solución al derroche de recursos naturales y consumo de energía y reducir los impactos ambientales de los residuos, hay que apostar por la prevención en origen. El objetivo de esta tesina se basó en la realización de una caracterización de residuos en los Campus de Castelldefels y en el de Terrassa, en el Edifico Vèrtex de la UPC en Barcelona y en datos recolectados en trabajos anteriores en la Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería Industrial de Barcelona ETSEIB, donde los datos arrojados ayudaron a analizar el comportamiento de los residuos, a proponer estrategias de manejo y a establecer medidas de mejora en la gestión de los mismos.

This book was released on 2015-07-31 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tesis (Bachelor) del año 2015 en eltema Ingeniería - Ingeniería industrial , Nota: ninguna, Universidad Autónoma de Coahuila (Facultad de Sistemas), Materia: Ingeniero Industrial y de Sistemas, Idioma: Español, Resumen: En el presente proyecto de tesis se realiza un diagnóstico sobre la disposición de los Residuos Sólidos Urbanos generados dentro de la Facultad de Sistemas por los estudiantes. La investigación se clasifica en: cuantitativa, de campo,transversal y descriptiva. El instrumento utilizado se compone de tres variables complejas: Conocimiento/información, percepción y hábitos. Integradas por un total de 77 variables simples. El estudio se realizó en una población de 100 estudiantes, a través de un muestreo determinístico incidental. Dentro de los resultados obtenidos, se encuentra una evidente falta de información/conocimiento de los alumnos en cuanto a conceptos básicos, como por ejemplo, el destino final de la basura. Sin embargo, cuentan con un conocimiento sobresaliente respecto al impacto positivo en la salud que se produce al separar correctamente los residuos. Por otro lado, la población percibe que la separación de los residuos en la Facultad no es efectiva, ya que consideran que no se cuenta con la información pertinente para realizar una adecuada segregación. Respecto a los hábitos, se encontró que los estudiantes no acostumbran separar los residuos en su casa y que, la población fumadora, con frecuencia tiran las colillas en la calle. Para lograr la correcta segregación de residuos, es necesario proporcionar a los estudiantes la información correcta, y brindarles la infraestructura necesaria para realizarla. Con esto y con un seguimiento adecuado, se lograrán modificar los hábitos de los estudiantes y la percepción que tienen de la Institución sobre la responsabilidad de llevar a cabo un adecuado manejo de los residuos.

Book Synopsis Construction and Building Research by : Carmen Llinares-Millán
Download or read book Construction and Building Research written by Carmen Llinares-Millán and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-01-31 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many areas of knowledge converge in the building industry and therefore research in this field necessarily involves an interdisciplinary approach. Effective research requires strong relation between a broad variety of scientific and technological domains and more conventional construction or craft processes, while also considering advanced management processes, where all the main actors permanently interact. This publication takes an interdisciplinary approach grouping various studies on the building industry chosen from among the works presented for the 2nd International Conference on Construction and Building Research. The papers examine aspects of materials and building systems; construction technology; energy and sustainability; construction management; heritage, refurbishment and conservation. The information contained within these pages may be of interest to researchers and practitioners in construction and building activities from the academic sphere, as well as public and private sectors.

Book Synopsis Medellín: environment urbanism society by : Michel Hermelin Arbaux
Download or read book Medellín: environment urbanism society written by Michel Hermelin Arbaux and published by Universidad EAFIT. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent times what has become known as "the case of Medellín " has generated a growing interest in the international community. These urban transformation that Medellín has experimented have become a focus of attention and reference for experts in many fields, around the world. The book ́Medellin: Environment, Urbanism and Society ́, that now published the Center for Urban and Environmental Studies, Urbam, of EAFIT University is a testimony of the value given by our culture to the accomplishments of the city, to the idea of the public sphere and the growing relationship between the technical sphere and the political sphere, understood in the broad sense as a form of disciplinary knowledge and construction of civil society. This book brings together a knowledge of the city from multiple perspectives; knowledge that is, without any doubt, impressive for its extension and profoundity, as well as for its capacity to combine objective data with conceptual reflections about the scope and impact of the different perspectives concerning the theme of urban transformation and the different actors that have participated in such processes. The book weaves a broad net over the city, its history and development, adopting a multidisciplinary vision. I think that this will be the first step in creating a speech that might finally liberate itself from the strict disciplinary boundaries, building a trans-disciplinary perspective that can amplify the urban dimension of the city. This is the beginning of a profound and complex reflection that is, at the same time, a project of knowledge and an instrument of action and participation.

Book Synopsis Engaging People in Sustainability by : Daniella Tilbury
Download or read book Engaging People in Sustainability written by Daniella Tilbury and published by IUCN. This book was released on 2004 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is based on the exchange of professional experiences which featured in an IUCN CEC workshop in August 2002. Practitioners from around the world shared their models of good practice and explored the challenges involved in engaging people in sustainability. The difficulties facing practitioners vary between country and context but some challenges are universal: A lack of clarity in communicating what is meant by sustainable development; An ambition to educate everyone to bring about a global citizenship; Social, organisational or institutional factors constrain change to sustainable development, yet there is an emphasis on formal education, and community educators do not receive the same support; A lack of balance in addressing the integration of environmental, social and economic dimensions leading to an interpretation that ESD is mainly about environment and conservation issues; New learning (rather than teaching) approaches are called for to promote more debate in society. Yet, few are trained or experienced in these new approaches. Practitioners need support to explore new ways of promoting learning. [Foreword, ed].

Download or read book The Llobregat written by Sergi Sabater and published by Springer. This book was released on 2012-06-02 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Llobregat belongs to the most thoroughly studied rivers in Europe and is a paradigm of the confluence of human and natural disturbances in a single basin. Because of its location in a very densely populated region and its Mediterranean character, the Llobregat supports a mixture of irregular flow, water abstraction, excess nutrients, mining debris, and a wide array of pollutants. The aquatic organisms strive to survive in a dramatically changing river that passes through a succession of dams, weirs and channels. The long-term river monitoring as well as the research that has been carried out in the river for a long time have provided an extensive knowledge of these disturbances and their effects on the biological communities. This book highlights the available information, with emphasis on the hydrological, chemical and biological elements interspersed in the river. Experts in the field discuss the main nutrient patterns and pollutant occurrence and the responses of the biological quality elements as well as the river ecosystem to the overall natural and man-made influences.

Book Synopsis Pyrethroid Insecticides by : Ethel Eljarrat
Download or read book Pyrethroid Insecticides written by Ethel Eljarrat and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-08-04 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reviews the latest developments concerning the analysis, fate, behaviour and toxicity of pyrethroid insecticides. Over the last few decades, pyrethroid insecticides have increasingly replaced organochlorine pesticides due to their relatively lower mammalian toxicity, selective insecticide activity and lower environmental persistence. They represent 25% of global sales of insecticides, and are considered to be “safe” since they are converted to non-toxic metabolites by oxidative metabolism in fish and by hydrolysis in mammals. However, recent studies have demonstrated their environmental ubiquity, their bioaccumulation and their toxicity in various aquatic and terrestrial organisms, and even in humans. Featuring contributions by leading experts, the book discusses the physico-chemical properties and uses of pyrethroid insecticides; the latest chemical analytical methods; their occurrence in the environment, biota and food; and their isomeric and enantiomeric behaviour. It particularly highlights the toxicological effects and human exposure to pyrethroid insecticides, and also offers insights into the effects of the salmon industry on the marine environment with a case study of sea lice treatment using pyrethroids. This comprehensive book is a valuable source of information for environmental scientists, policymakers and producers interested in issues related to pyrethroid insecticides.

Book Synopsis The Metabolism of Islands by : Simron Singh
Download or read book The Metabolism of Islands written by Simron Singh and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2021-08-04 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book makes the case for why we should care about islands and their sustainability. Islands are hotspots of biocultural diversity and home to 600 million people that depend on one-sixth of the earth’s total area, including the surrounding oceans, for their subsistence. Today, they are at the frontlines of climate change and face an existential crisis. Islands are, however, potential “hubs of innovation” that are uniquely positioned to be leaders in sustainability and climate action. This volume argues that a full-fledged program on “island industrial ecology” is urgently needed, with the aim of offering policy-relevant insights and strategies to sustain small islands in an era of global environmental change. The nine contributions in this volume cover a wide range of applications of socio-metabolic research, from flow accounts to stock analysis and their relationship to services in space and time. They offer insights into how reconfiguring patterns of resource use will allow island governments to build resilience and adapt to the challenges of climate change.
