"This is a genuinely exciting book." (Chemistry and Industry, 2nd October 2000)

Ein Umdenken bei Einkauf und Einsatz von Rohstoffen kann nicht nur die Produktionskosten, sondern auch den Schadstoffausstoß eines Prozesses drastisch senken! Die Autoren dieses Buches konzentrieren sich darauf, wie man Abfälle minimiert, statt sie kostenintensiv entsorgen zu müssen. Eine Reihe von Fallstudien zeigt Vorteile, Probleme und Fallstricke bei der Umsetzung der theoretischen Erkenntnisse in die Praxis. (12/99)
