Progress in Sustainable Development: Sustainable Engineering Practices provides readers with the latest research and best practices in sustainable engineering in the fields of urban, environmental, energy and sustainability sciences, reflecting a focus on state-of-the art insights and the latest developments. Chapters focus on the key engineering principles of effective resource use, reduction of excess waste, and taking advantage of natural resources to equip readers with the background information and practical considerations of successful implementations of sustainable technical solutions. Each chapter features detailed case studies and figures showing real-world applications of the latest technologies, ensuring they are reproduceable by the reader. The multidisciplinary chapters include environmentally-friendly technologies and the application of novel initiatives in engineering for infrastructure, renewable energy generation, advanced materials and waste, among other areas, with a strong emphasis on sustainability and conservation of resources.

Transition Engineering: Building a Sustainable Future examines new strategies emerging in response to the mega-issues of global climate change, decline in world oil supply, scarcity of key industrial minerals, and local environmental constraints. These issues pose challenges for organizations, businesses, and communities, and engineers will need to begin developing ideas and projects to implement the transition of engineered systems. This work presents a methodology for shifting away from unsustainable activities. Teaching the Transition Engineering approach and methodology is the focus of the text, and the concept is presented in a way that engineers can begin applying it in their work.The Open Access version of this book, available at http: //www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons [Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND)] 4.0 license.

"Production has high importance in each country in point of technical, social, environmental, and economic aspects. On another side, sustainability is a hyper-disciplinary issue which became one of the main concerns across the world. It encompasses sections of society as academic fields, and all companies, factories, organization systems, and consumers. It is a hyper-disciplinary issue because involves all aspects of human life as economic, environmental, and social aspects. Therefore, it is necessary to define and explain the various considerations and elements of sustainable production. The goal of the book is to define all aspects and elements of sustainable production for readers. This book introduces and describes sustainable production elements. It includes production, design, implementation, management, and sustainability description. Sustainable production has different aspects as technical, economic, environmental, and social. Each of these aspects has different elements in sustainable production. In this book, different elements in each aspect have been described where many of them are affected by each other. For the production a product, all or some of the elements may be considered to be respected. This book can assist the readers in considering the sustainability elements in their lives, jobs, and researches. The readers may be students, researchers, manufacturers, and those who conduct any producing or servicing activity"--
