Résumé :	The first text available devoted completely to industrial ecology/green engineering, this introduction provides everything instructors need to teach a successful course-including visuals-in one source. The authors use industrial ecology principles and cases to ground the discussion of sustainable engineering, and thus offer practical and reasonable approaches to an otherwise difficult and sometimes otherworldly subject. Features • Methods to better incorporate concerns about environmental and social issues into design decisions-from the level of products and manufacturing processes to factories and material flow systems-are discussed. • A complete suite of homework problems is included. • A set of vugraphs enables professors to present from the start a sophisticated, self-containe[...] The first text available devoted completely to industrial ecology/green engineering, this introduction provides everything instructors need to teach a successful course-including visuals-in one source.
