Industrial Energy Management Strategies
The importance of energy management has grown in recent years due to the heightened awareness of the impact of energy use on the environment and its very real impact on a company’s bottom line. This book provides a detailed and knowledgeable reference for those engaged in the energy management field or those just starting out by illustrating a practical approach to implementing energy management programs using case studies and real-world experience. Topics covered include new areas of development such as CUSUM and multivariate regression analysis. Also included is coverage of all systems and standards that affect energy management, including ISO50001, EMIS, Industrial Refrigeration, Cooling Water System and Industrial Ventilation System. Technical, organizational and behavioral considerations are covered. The book is designed as a quick reference guide for practicing energy managers.
Microbes in Microbial Communities
The book overviews the complex interactions amongst the microbes and their possible applications. Emphasis has been made to include a wide spectrum of experimental and theoretical contributions from eminent researchers in the field. Microbial communities are the assemblages of microorganisms of various species which live together in the same environment and continuously interact with each other. The microbial cells in communities display unique phenotypes that affect the survival and reproduction of other cells present around them. These phenotypes constitute the social adaptations that drive the interactions between microbial cells. The interactions, further determine the productivity, stab...
Optimization and Inventory Management
This book discusses inventory models for determining optimal ordering policies using various optimization techniques, genetic algorithms, and data mining concepts. It also provides sensitivity analyses for the models’ robustness. It presents a collection of mathematical models that deal with real industry scenarios. All mathematical model solutions are provided with the help of various optimization techniques to determine optimal ordering policy. The book offers a range of perspectives on the implementation of optimization techniques, inflation, trade credit financing, fuzzy systems, human error, learning in production, inspection, green supply chains, closed supply chains, reworks, game t...
Microbial Versatility in Varied Environments
The book compiles the latest studies on microorganisms thriving in extreme conditions. Microbes have been found in extremely high and low temperatures, highly acidic to saline conditions, from deserts to the Dead sea, from hot-springs to underwater hydrothermal vents- the diversity is incredible. The various chapters highlight the microbial life and describe the mechanisms of tolerance to these harsh conditions, and show how an understanding of these phenomena can help us exploit the microbes in biotechnology. The theme of the book is highly significant since life in these environments can give vital clues about the origin and evolution of life on earth, as a lot of these conditions simulate the environment present billions of years ago. Additionally, the study of adaptation and survival of organisms in such environments can be important for finding life on other planets. This book shall be useful for students, researchers and course instructors interested in evolution, microbial adaptations and ecology in varied environments.
Sustainable Agriculture in the Era of Climate Change
Under ongoing climate changes, natural and cultivated habitats of major crops are being continuously disturbed. Such conditions impose and exacerbate abiotic and biotic stressors. Drought, salinity, flood, cold, heat, heavy metals, metalloids, oxidants, irradiation, etc. are important abiotic stressors, while diseases and infections caused by plant pathogens, such as fungal agents, bacteria and viruses, are major biotic stresses. In many instances, stresses have become the major limiting factor for agricultural productivity and exert detrimental role on growth and yield of the crops. To help feed an ever increasing world population and to ensure global food security, concerted efforts from s...
Microbial Syntrophy-mediated Eco-enterprising
Microbial Syntrophy-Mediated Eco-enterprising summarizes and reviews possible microbial applications for eco-industrial sustainability. The book emphasizes a wide spectrum of experimental and theoretical contributions from eminent researchers in the field. In 13 chapters, there is a focus on the microbial intrusions for remediating sites by accumulated pesticides, heavy metals, polyaromatic hydrocarbons, and other industrial effluents. Moreover, the potentiality and key mechanisms used by microorganisms for sustainable environmental management and their prospects are also considered in this new release. The term syntrophy for nutritional interdependence is often used in microbiology to descr...
Microbial Exopolysaccharides
This book offers a complete coverage of microbial refinery for exopolysaccharides (EPS) production, including genetic improvements, production techniques, biotechnological applications in food, cosmetics, health and environment sector, economic perspectives, and commercialization of EPS products. It focuses on exopolysaccharides production from an organism perspective to offer a complete picture from isolation of microbes to commercialization of EPS-based products. It covers strategies for EPS production and future perspectives and the potential of microbial refinery. Features: Provides a concise introduction to the science, biology, technology, and application of exopolysaccharides (EPS) Details upstream and downstream steps in EPS production from microbial resources Acts as a complete guide from production to commercialization Explores the potential application of EPS for socioeconomical benefits Discusses the EPS applications in food, cosmetics, health, and bioremediation approach for clean and sustainable development This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in fermentation technology, biochemical engineering, and biotechnology.
Managing Financial Institutions
This book goes beyond traditional financial institutions textbooks, which tend to focus on mathematical models for risk management and the technical aspects of measuring and managing risk. It focuses on the role of financial institutions in promoting social and economic goals for the communities in which they operate for the greater good, while also meeting financial and competitive challenges, and managing risks. Cooperman divides the text into seven easily teachable modules that examine the real issues and challenges that managers of financial institutions face. These include the transformative changes presented by social unrest, climate change and resource challenges, as well as the chang...
ECONOMIC INEQUALITY AND GROWTH A new look through Human Capital as you designed and shown
This book tries to portray the link between economic inequality and long-run growth via human capital and the major take of the book is to analyze the growth panorama through the lens of the ‘idea’ or ‘knowledge’ generation’ which is eventually considered as the ‘engine of growth’ being fueled by productivity enhancement through the innovations of new technologies. But this is not the end of the story as it involves enormous controversies. Simply the controversy started with the basic question --- why are some countries richer than other countries? To put it in another way, why growth is a miracle, why it is not driven homogeneously for economies, or whether the economies would...
The Elephant Moves
Charting out a roadmap for India depends on a sound understanding of how India is unique and why it is shaped the way it is. The Elephant Moves unfolds a captivating saga, tracing India's economic journey through the lens of competitiveness. From unraveling economic history ('origins unveiled") to navigating global dynamics ("sailing the tides"), the book explores the forces shaping nations. It delves into the facets of many Indias, unveiling opportunities in heterogeneity. Envisioning India's path to a developed economy by 2047, the book addresses challenges such as job creation, policy implementation, and the imperative for shared prosperity that are met through guiding principles grounded in shared value, social progress, and prosperity. Providing a dynamic vision for India's diverse future, the book urges readers to embrace a narrative where India, rooted in regional diversity, shapes its global destiny.
