Industrial Ecology of Earth Resources EAEE E4001 Nickolas J. Themelis

Sustainable development (UN) : How to meet the needs Introduction Sustainable development (UN) : How to meet the needs of the present generation… …without compromising the ability of future generations to meet theirs

Industrial Ecology for materials production: Introduction Industrial Ecology for materials production: The design or re-design of processes and products with full knowledge of their environmental impacts Materials: Minerals, fuels, water

Annual consumption of copper during the 20th century Copper is principally used in electrical and water conduits --> it is a good measure of the material standard of living 10 kg/capita for the highly developed nations 0.6 kg/capita in China 0.2 kg/capita in India

Ore RESERVES are not infinite: The “tyrannies” of ore type and grade (Kellogg)

Energy savings from materials recycling

Estimated global anthropogenic emissions in tons/year (after Nriagu &Pacyna 1998)

Application of 20th century materials extraction technologies to 21th century problems

Earth and Environmental Engineering : A new discipline for materials and the environment
