´Environmentally Conscious Alternative Energy Production shows you how to design and implement power generation technologies that are efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly. Chapters have been written by experts who, based on their hands-on field experience, offer detailed coverage of the environmental and economic impacts of renewable and conventional power generation technologies. Moreover, you learn how to satisfy business objectives, such as minimizing costs and maximizing design utility, while meeting environmental objectives.´ ´Throughout the volume, examples and case studies serve as blueprints, demonstrating how designs are devised and executed. Figures illustrate key design principles, and tables provide at-a-glance summaries of key data. Finally, references at the end of each chapter enable you to investigate individual topics in greater depth.´--Jacket.
