The EUROPE model is applicable to production activities that show an inflow of inputs that are transformed, followed by the discharge of a flow of products plus a residual flow. The EUROPE model can opti-mize flows through a ‘black box’, which is a certain unit with inflows and outflows. The EUROPE model promotes an increased equity for distributing natural resources to everyday citizens, as well as to the production lines of major corporations. This work shows how the EUROPE mod-el’s possible realm of applicability, step by step, has been expanded to encapsulate ever more areas of commercial interest, to improve the people’s quality of life.
This book compiles many different treatment options and best practices for the treatment and recycling of municipal solid waste from all over the globe, factoring in cost-effectiveness, sanitation, and environmental degradation. Important to professors, researchers, students, policymakers, and municipal offices, this informed book looks into innovative waste management systems from a number of developing countries, which may prove useful to developed countries of the world as well. This book is unique in that it focuses on state-of-the-art urban solid waste management and future trends.
This book describes how the equality principle and its mathematical expression, the Efficient Use of Resources for an Optimal Production Economy (EUROPE) model, can improve the economy, the environment and the technological standard. It shows how this novel model should be applied to, for example, the manufacturing industry, the exploitation of asteroids, mining, reuse and recycling, energy flows, ocean currents, water distribution, megacity supply, and food webs. The EUROPE model is applicable to all producing activities that show an inflow of inputs that are transformed. The book will appeal to academics interested in sustainability, and practitioners who want insights into how to best utilize their input. The EUROPE model can improve the resource economy, from a single machine up to the planetary system.
