The concept ?environment? in exergy analysisSome special cases

Sustainability analysis of a society based on exergy studies – a case study of the island of Samsø (Denmark)

“…1998Ayres (e.g. ,1999, Ruth (1995), Dincer (2002) Bastianoni (Bastianoni et al, 2005), Hammond (2004Hammond ( , 2007, Jørgensen (2006) Sciubba (2004), Serova and Brodiansky (2004), Svirezhev (2008), Dewulf et al (2008), Wall (1986), and Volk and Pauluis (2010), Kümmel (2001Kümmel ( , 2011. As thermodynamics is in general viewed as a very complicated science e which in part it true e it is probably therefore that the introduction of these views have had a hard time finding its way into environmental management and politics.…”

Exergy Inefficiency: An Indicator for Sustainable Development Analysis

“…Moreover, in the analysis of economy and society, thermodynamics has been introduced by many authors (Georgescu-Roegen, 1971;Jørgensen and Mejer, 1979;Jørgensen and Svirezhev, 2004;Jørgensen et al, 1995;Nielsen and Jørgensen, 2015). Thermodynamics presents a great number of applications and an integration of many methodologies for the analyses of both energy and material flows, and economics (Nielsen and Müller, 2009;Kandziora et al, 2013;Zhou et al, 2011;Zhang et al, 2009;Xydis, 2009;Yellishetty et al, 2011;Whittaker, 1976;Warr and Ayres, 2010;Serova and Brodianski, 2004;Herva et al, 2011). Moreover, many applications of exergy analysis have been developed in Cleaner Production, Industrial Ecology and LCA also for the analysis of depletion of resources, activities and production also in transports and building materials, and to conceder and introduce the consequences of new and more sustainable alternatives, like wind and solar power and various forms of bio-fuels (Nielsen and Jørgensen, 2015).…”
