High-quality technical knowledge and research results from specific test cases aroundtheworldarebeinganalysed,providingaholisticviewinthemainaspects oftheGlobalWarmingissue.Thelatteralsoconcerncurrentpoliciesandemissions from air and maritime transport, in addition to the fossil fuel applications. Novel technologies such as Carbon Capture and Storage are investigated along with process/systems analysis and optimization for mitigating CO emissions. Water 2 resources management and waste water treatment as well as waste management issues are also tackled. Biomass, hydrogen and solar energy technologies are presentedalongwithaninsightongreenbuildings. Theutmostscopeofthisbookistocontributetothescientificcommunity,since it includes scientific approaches from many organisations around the globe, presenting key issues, challenges and research results in a variety of scientific areasthatrelatetotheGlobalWarmingeffects.
