Process synthesis with simultaneous consideration of inherent safety-inherent risk footprint

Andreja Nemet, Jiří J. Klemeš, Zdravko Kravanja

Frontiers of Chemical Science and Engineering 2018, Volume 12, Issue 4,   Pages 745-762 doi: 10.1007/s11705-018-1779-7

Abstract: The aim of this study is to enhance and select the appropriate risk assessment method and to incorporateRisk assessment is performed simultaneously with the MINLP process synthesis, where the risk is determinedeither for the whole process as overall risk, or on a per unit-of-a-product basis.For the latter, a new measurement is proposed: the inherent risk footprint.footprint can be achieved.

Decision Support System for Evaluating Impact of Product Carbon Labeling Scheme

Xu Dong-ling,Foster Chris,Hu Ying,Yang Jian-bo

Frontiers of Engineering Management 2014, Volume 1, Issue 1,   Pages 89-104 doi: 10.15302/J-FEM-2014015

Abstract: In this paper a decision support system for systematically evaluating the impact of labeling products with their carbon footprints is developed and applied to prioritize products for carbon labeling in a large supermarket chain in the UK. Carbon labels may change consumers' behavior and encourage suppliers to implement carbon-reduction solutions. Those changes may, however, lead to unintended risks. To handle the challenges of uncertainties in the evaluation, the Evidential Reasoning approach and the Intelligent Decision System software for multi-criteria decision analysis are applied to support the process. The system developed can be applied to assessing the impact of sustainable development policies to maximize their benefits and minimize their risks.

science really help us to produce more better-quality food while reducing the world-wide environmental footprint

William J. DAVIES, Susan E. WARD, Alan WILSON

Frontiers of Agricultural Science and Engineering 2020, Volume 7, Issue 1,   Pages 28-44 doi: 10.15302/J-FASE-2019299

Abstract:

This paper reviews recent developments in crop science that can be the basis of a revolution in the global food system but it is also emphasized that such a revolution requires more than changes in food production and supply. We must more effectively feed a growing global population with a healthy diet while also defining and delivering the kinds of sustainable food systems that will minimise damage to our planet. There are exciting new developments in crop production biology but much existing crop science can be exploited to increase yields with the aid of a knowledge exchange (KE) framework requiring the use of new technology now available to most people across the globe. We discuss novel approaches at both the plant and the crop level that will enhance nutrient and water productivity and we also outline ways in which energy use and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions can be reduced and labor shortages combatted. Exploitation of new biology and new engineering opportunities will require development of public-private partnerships and collaborations across the disciplines to allow us to move effectively from discovery science to practical application. It is also important that consumers contribute to the debate over proposed changes to food and farming and so effective KE mechanisms are required between all relevant communities.

WATER USE IN HUMAN CIVILIZATIONS: AN INTERDISCIPLINARY ANALYSIS OF A PERPETUAL SOCIAL-ECOLOGICAL CHALLENGE

Frontiers of Agricultural Science and Engineering 2021, Volume 8, Issue 4,   Pages 512-524 doi: 10.15302/J-FASE -2021393

Abstract:

Settlement patterns and social structures have been shaped by access to water since the onset of human societies. This review covers historical and recent examples from Cambodia, Central Asia, India, Latin America and the Arabian Peninsula to analyze the role of water resources in determining the rise and collapse of civilizations. Over recent decades increasing globalization and concomitant possibilities to externalize water needs as virtual water have obscured global dependence on water resources via telecoupling, but rapid urbanization brings it now back to the political agenda. It is foremost in the urban arena of poorer countries where competing claims for water increasingly lead to scale-transcendent conflicts about ecosystem services. Solutions to the dilemma will require broad stakeholder-based agreements on water use taking into account the available data on water resources, their current and potential use efficiency, recycling of water after effective treatment, and social-ecological approaches of improved governance and conflict resolution.
