Industrial energy systems channel fuels and power into a variety ofenergy types such as steam, direct heat, hot fluids and gases, andshaft power for compressors, fans, pumps, and other machine-drivenequipment. All of these processes impact the environment and areimpacted by external energy and environmental policies andregulations. Therefore many environmental management issues areclosely related to energy use and efficiency.
Applied Industrial Energy and Environmental Managementprovides a comprehensive and application oriented approach to thetechnical and managerial challenges of efficient energy performancein industrial plants. Written by leading practitioners in the fieldwith extensive experience of working with development banks,international aid organizations, and multinational companies, theauthors are able to offer real case studies as a basis to theirmethod. The book is divided into three main parts:
* Part one describes Energy and Environmental Management Systems(EEMS) in current use and management techniques for energy andenvironmental performance improvement.
* Part two focuses on the engineering aspects of industrialenergy management, describing main industrial energy systems andhow to analyse and improve their energy performance.
* Part three is the TOOLBOX on an accompanying website,which contains data, analytical methods and questionnaires as wellas software programs, to support the practical application of themethods elaborated on in the first two parts of the book.
This book will be a valuable resource to practising energy andenvironmental management engineers, plant managers and consultantsin the energy and manufacturing industries. It will also be ofinterest to graduate engineering and science students takingcourses in industrial energy and environmental management

Über Autor(innen)

Dr. Z. K. Morvay, holds a PhD in electrical engineering andhas more than 20 years of teaching experience at universities inCroatia, the UK and Thailand. During the early 1990s he worked fora UK energy and environmental consultancy firm, managing projectsfor international development banks and aid organizations,technical assistance projects for governmental and consultancyprojects and feasibility studies for industry. he moved to Thailandto manage the local office just before the economic crisis in SouthEast Asia in 1997. He developed, designed and managed theimplementation of a number of energy and environmental managementprojects for large industrial international companies from Japan,the USA, the UK and Thailand, which often evolved into costmanagement projects because the theme of the day at that time wascost cutting. In addition, he has practical experience of changemanagement, training needs assessment and support fororganizational learning. He is the author of a number ofprofessional papers and of a handbook and manuals on energy andenvironmental subjects. Currently, he manages a national energyefficiency project in Croatia.
Dr. D. D. Gvozdenac is Professor and Chairman of ThermalEngineering at the University of Novi Sad Serbia and Thailand. Thisis complemented by having spent the last 15 years as aninternational consultant working on energy projects in Europe,Africa, South East Asia and China. He was also the director of anational energy efficiency agency and a regional energy efficiencycentre. He has managed a number of energy audits in industry,solving the problems of energy and utility systems, and hasdeveloped best practice and preventive maintenance manuals forindustrial equipment and machines. He is the author of a number ofprofessional papers, editor of conference proceedings and author oftraining manuals. Currently, he is working on the development of anational cogeneration project in Thailand.
