Measuring progress towards sustainabilitya treatise for engineers /[electronic resource] :by Subhas K. Sikdar, Debalina Sengupta, Rajib Mukherjee. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2017. - xv, 280 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Chapter 1. Introduction to Scientific Sustainability -- Chapter 2. Sustainability and Innovation -- Chapter 3. Engineering Sustainability, Needs for Metrology and Standards -- Chapter 4. Systems, Indicators and Sustainability Assessment -- Chapter 5. Sustainability Measurement For Technology and Business Systems: Use of Currently Available for Quantification -- Chapter 6. Data-based Statistical Algorithm for Sustainability Measurement and Decision Making -- Chapter 7. Statistical Algorithms for Sustainability Measurement and Decision Making -- Chapter 8. Case Studies in Sustainability Decision Making -- Chapter 9. Energy Sustainability, Water Sustainability.

This book is a state of the art treatise on what has been done so far on measuring sustainability for decision making. Contributions will appeal to engineers and scientists engaged in technology development, assessment, and verification. Researchers working on engineering sustainability are likely to get ideas for further research in quantifying sustainability for industrial systems. Concepts described can be applied across all scales, from process technology to global sustainability; and challenges and limitations are also addressed. Readers will discover important insights about simulation-based approaches to process design and quantitative measurement techniques of sustainability for business and technology systems. Most of the examples and case studies are from chemical enterprises but the methodologies presented could be applicable to any system for which quantitative data for indicators are available, and the choice of the set of indicators of sustainability are comprehensive.
