About this title

Synopsis

This book presents the principles of exergy analysis and major developments in the area over the last 15 years. Among the problems featured are: determination of partial exergy losses in thermal and chemical systems, the cumulative depletion of non-renewable natural resources, minimization of the ecological cost, the concept of a new pro-ecological tax proportional to the depletion of non-renewable resources, practical rules for the improvement of the thermodynamic imperfection of
processes, and discussion of global anthropogenic and natural exergy losses.
