Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

The study investigated the metal processing industry and established gaps in its application of cleaner production initiatives. Major processes were reviewed through use of material balance diagrams for typical operations. Upon which feasible CP options were generated to minimize waste and emissions from the metal industry. The specific framework guidelines for CP implementation were outlined for various metal industry sector processes.
