This book brings together a comprehensive and up-to-date presentation of the main scientific and technological aspects of limestone mining. The book discusses how to excavate limestone from surface mines including the nuances of production and commercial aspects.It addresses topical issues related with the quarrying of limestone and environmental protection measures adopted in mining and manufacturing. The chapters in this book describe planning and designing of mining processes to produce limestone that meets with market requirements and customer specifications. The book also discusses the environmental stresses caused by mining as an industrial activity and their ramifications and remedies. The book includes case studies from different geo-mining environments. The contents of this book will be useful to professionals, researchers, and policy makers alike.

Himalaya, the world's most prominent mountain system of the world is a source of sustainence for the social, cultural and economic development of population across different countries. Unscientific, small-scale mining for harnessing reounrces including minerals has caused ecosystem damage. Therefore, an integrated and holistic approach to deal with the resource management is required. This book makes a focussed effort to explain how mining in the Himalaya is practiced with discussions pertaining to critiques and lacunas of mining and environmental practices. Status of mining practices in Himalaya is included along with the legal/environmental repercussions of mining.

There is a need for a text book containing practical case studies in the subject of energy conservation and associated CO2 emission mitigation for UG & PG level engineering and science students. This book is written keeping in mind the application part of engineering knowledge and skills so that learners and practicing engineers can really apply the techniques in the field. Application of engineering principles and the methodology of integrating with practice in reducing CO2 emission are presented in this maiden edition. The first chapter provides an insight into the nexus between energy consumption and CO2 emission and the needed for mitigation. In Chapter-2 a detailed survey is presented to highlight the need of energy conservation and the achievements made. The application of numerical tools for critical analysis of energy systems to quantify energy consumption and CO2 emission mitigation potential are reviewed and presented. Detailed discussions on energy Audit, emission estimation methodology are enumerated in Chapter 3 to motivate the readers to understand and apply these strategies in the industrial environment. The cases of paper based industry, cement, spice powder and electronic contactors manufacturing industry are discussed for better understanding in chapters 4, 5, 6 & 7. In chapter 8, the application of numerical method-Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to pressure drop analysis in compressed air pipe junctions T and elbow are discussed with simulation results for energy and CO2 emission reduction. A brief introduction is presented on carbon capture in chapter 9. This book will be an eye opener for the readers looking for a career in the domain of Green Manufacturing and serve as a hand book for practicing engineers.

The book is an outcome of the author’s active professional involvement in research, manufacture and consultancy in the field of cement chemistry and process engineering. This multidisciplinary title on cement production technology covers the entire process spectrum of cement production, starting from extraction and winning of natural raw materials to the finished products including the environmental impacts and research trends. The book has an overtone of practice supported by the back-up principles.
