measure sustainability. An overview of the definitions and units of measurement associated …

The design of sustainable manufacturing processes and supply chains is rapidly becoming
a critical issue. The reason is the necessity of providing for the needs of a growing human …

Biomass energy systems can be employed to meet the requirements of distributed energy
systems in rural as well as urban contexts, whether this is an electrification or a …

The human dependency on finite fossil fuel has led to its drastic depletion. Along with its
detrimental effects on the environment, such practice is now deemed unsustainable. This …

The increase of the global population has a negative impact to the environment due to the
direct correlation between the amount of solid waste generated and the population growth …

The aim of this paper is to introduce a novel approach which supports facility planning in the
field of waste management. Only 23% of municipal solid waste (MSW) was thermally treated …

This paper presents an extended implementation of a P-graph for an open-structure
biomass network synthesis. Biomass and biofuel production networks syntheses are …

The utilization of anaerobic systems for biogas production integrates various aspects such
as renewable energy generation, waste management, waste treatment, and biofertilizer …

This paper presents a method for assessing environmental performance in industrial
operations. The method was applied to three logistical operations in an industrial supply …

As most of the energy production and transformation processes are safety-critical, it is vital to
develop tools that support the analysis and minimisation of their reliability-related risks. The …
