A companion to Volume V: Applications of Ion Trapping Devices, this volume explores advances in this expanding field. It covers new methods for trapping ions, such as the Orbitrap™, the digital ion trap, the rectilinear ion trap, and the toroidal ion trap; the development and application of the quadrupole ion trap and the quadrupole linear ion trap; and the introduction of high-field asymmetric waveform ion mobility spectrometry. The book explains all terms, acronyms, procedures, and equations in a style readily accessible at the graduate level and presents a common writing style that enables readers to appreciate the commonalities of topics.

While current methods used in ecological risk assessments for pesticides are largely deterministic, quantifiable results garnered using probabilistic methods are attracting growing interest from industries and governments. This book identifies which methods are most appropriate for pesticide assessment and explores their appropriateness as a common suite for general use. The authors discuss classical and Bayesian approaches, various types of Monte Carlo analysis, first order error analysis, probability bounds analysis, interval analysis, and fuzzy mathematics. They then examine how these methods can be used in assessments for other environmental contaminants.

Currently serving as a resource for the National Center for Toxological Research in their work with the Gulf Coast oil spill, this book presents current research conducted primarily by the airforce on the toxic effects of JP-8 jet fuel on the pulmonary, immune, dermal, and nervous systems. It examines the history and chemistry involved with the handling of jet fuel, and discusses the impact of exposure. In all, the book considers 13 toxicology studies of significance, the results of which are currently shaping US armed services policy. It will enable all of the hydrocarbon industry to make better choices regarding fuel handling.

Although the fields of toxicology and human health assessment address similar problems, the experts from these fields do not meet very frequently. Originating from a meeting of scientist in both fields, this book clearly links ecotoxicology and classic human toxicology. It incorporates extensive reviews of exposure to toxicants, toxicokinetics and toxicodynamics, toxicology of mixtures, and risk assessment. This unusual combination of coverage sets it apart from other ecotoxicological and risk assessment resources that do not discuss these topics in an integrated manner.

Connecting Industrial Energy Efficiency to Business Performance

The Design Interface Between Everyforest and Everycity

Christopher Russell

Chris Maser

Consultant

Consultant, Corvallis, Oregon, USA

Written in accessible, understandable prose, this book explains the connection between energy and business performance. It delineates how day-to-day choices relate to the risks and rewards of energy use. Concise, to-the-point chapters explain how energy is invested, preserved, and ultimately positioned to create wealth. Hard-nosed business leaders should appreciate the section with examples that show a strong financial case for energy improvements, including the save-orbuy criterion, the economic penalty for “doing nothing,” the break-even cost, and the budget for supporting design and analysis work.

Based on the author’s forty years of experience, this book discusses the sustainability of the planet and its population when dealing with climate change. It focuses on community-based solutions and emphasizes how the heavy lifting will always be done inside existing cities and communities. The author suggests that society must adapt to the circumstances of global climate change in order to determine what can be done to stabilize the global climate as effectively and quickly as possible. He explores the reciprocal interface between communities and the landscape and explains how government agencies can create solutions that work.

Sustainability and Design Ethics Tom Russ

Edited by

Okechukwu Ukaga, Chris Maser, and Michael Reichenbach

College of Southern Maryland, La Plata, USA

Series: Social Environmental Sustainability

Major revisions of traditional professional codes of ethics are required to reflect emerging environmental concerns and the corresponding standards of care and professional practice. Drawing on business ethics principles and his experience as a design professional, the author presents an exposition of the underlying ethical reasoning involved in the challenges confronted by contemporary design professionals. It considers the implications of sustainability from traditional ethical points of view and provides a balanced analysis of how a sustainable standard of care might be composed.

An exploration of the human-related aspects of sustainable development, this book emphasizes the need to move away from an unwanted circumstance by being systemic in our thinking instead of symptomatic. The authors argue that we cannot move away from an unwanted, negative circumstance; we can only move toward a desired, positive outcome. Revealing the multidimensional nature of sustainable development, the text summarizes positive approaches and presents strong theoretical and historical pieces along with salient case examples that illustrate the desired outcome of each model or framework discussed.
