This text aims to teach environmental engineers and managers how to quantify the financial benefits of environmental projects using total cost assessment (TCA). It shows the reader how to calculate the real costs of generating pollution and how to apply this cost information to improve production processes and save money in waste disposal. The text also provides practice exercises that should help environmental managers and engineers to calculate costs and analyze actual problems faced by industrial facilities. Each exercise includes worksheets and answers. It aims to help environmental managers and project engineers get funding for pollution prevention projects by showing that preventing waste can be cheaper than disposing of it. There are also case studies from actual environmental projects in industrial sectors, such as electroplating, metal working, textile and paper mills, electronics manufacturers and food processors.
