Sustainable design definition

Therefore, in this definition process intensification encompasses both novel apparatus and techniques which are designed to bring dramatic improvements in production and processing (Figure 1.8) [25]. As a result, safe, cheaper, compact, sustainable (environmentally friendly), and energy-efficient technologies are obtained. 

In our attempt to understand the different designations of meat, we discovered the following extremely helpful definitions and meat certification guide written by the Chefs Collaborative (an organization of food-community members who promote sustainable cuisine and sing the praises of local, seasonal, and artisanal cooking—www.chefscollaborative.org). 

Green chemistry is also known as environmentally benign chemistry, or sustainable chemistry. Perhaps the most widely accepted definition of green chemistry is the one offered by chemists Paul Anastas and John Warner, who defined green chemistry as the design of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use and generation of hazardous substances. 

Survey Design. To ensure that the respondents addressed the areas of sustainability - economic, environmental, and social - the survey presented three commonly used definitions for sustainability3 and respondents were asked to consider their responses in terms of those definitions. This was critical given the broad array of definitions and understanding related to the concept of sustainability. 

By definition, sustained release formulations differ pharmaceutically and pharmacokinetically from the innovator drug. The excipients and particle sizes (usually larger) of the formulation are designed to dissolve more slowly and are almost always drugs for chronic diseases. The common advantages are reduction in dose frequency (and thus, hopefully, improved patient compliance see that chapter in this book) or reduction of Cmax for a standard AUC, which can improve tolerability when adverse events are plasma concentration related. Regulatory approval of these formulations... 

A pharmacometrics enterprise is, intrinsically and by definition, a needs-driven solution-oriented enterprise. Therefore, establishing a pharmacometrics service consists of designing and implementing specific variants of the nine processes enumerated above and the infrastructure required to execute and sustain them. The core process of a pharmacometrics service enterprise is pharmacometric analysis, conceived of and visualized in Figure 36.2 as a specific variant of solution... 

Conversely, Ehlermann and Schubert (1987) sustained that compressibility results from materials of different composition cannot be compared and that flowability characterization through compressibility must be made specifically for each food variety. Moreover, confined uniaxial compression is a simple compression test that provides an approximate measure of the flowability of powders. Therefore, it is not suitable for silo design but may prove to be a convenient method for process control in any food laboratory (e.g., to evaluate particle cohesion). Table II offers a range value definition for flowability classification by comparing flow function (ratio between the maximum consolidation stress and unconfined yield stress) with compressibility. 

It is doubtful if a satisfactory, all-inclusive definition of lubrication can be formulated a pn.-ioK.yi. In that case, we might as well fall back on common experience and see whether we can identify and describe the modes of behavior we propose to designate as lubrication. Let us take a typical case where lubricants are unquestionably useful namely, the operation of machinery with members that move against one another. We readily observe that lubricated operation differs from unlubricated operation by the exertion of less force, the consumption of less energy, and the slower alteration of the shape and size of the contacting parts in the sustained course of the operation of the machinery. In the accepted terminology of engineering, lubrication results in the...
