| Summary: | The goal of this special issue is to take a multidisciplinary approach to an integrated discussion of the topics related to sustainable development paths for resource-constrained process industries. Resources include water, minerals, fossil fuel, environmental capacity, etc., the availability of which strongly restricts the growth of process industries in both developed and developing countries. Thus, research that leads to a resource-constrained sustainable development path is needed to ensure the long-term viability of process industries. It is necessary to balance the environmental considerations with economic aspects of production and consumption of process industry products. Rigorous conceptual, analytical and quantitative approaches need to be developed in order to identify such development paths. © 2016 Elsevier B.V. |
