Review:
This book deals with the
state-of-the-knowledge
on the sustainable supply and use of water and material resources in
industry. the problems currently faced in water and material resources
management depend on resource demands and supplies, their reliability and
environmental protection which may be geographically varied and rather localized. Thus, the appropriate responses, both managerial and
technological, will vary accordingly and creative thinking will be needed.
Several chapters in this book contain such responses and illustrate them by
case studies.
