A collection of research finding on one of the proposed new industrial processes in the Caribbean – Aluminium Smelting. These findings are supplemented by extensive data and background literature on smelting processes and related environmental impacts, including effects on fragile ecological systems and biodiversities in the Caribbean.
Aluminium Smelting: Health, Environmental and Engineering Perspectives is a collection of research finding on one of the proposed new industrial processes in the Caribbean – Aluminium Smelting. These findings are supplemented by extensive data and background literature on smelting processes and related environmental impacts, including effects on fragile ecological systems and biodiversities in the Caribbean. Contributors to this volume, all experts in their respective fields, discuss a range of issues including energy and economics; land use planning; environmental concerns; human health aspects and the effects of industrialization on ecosystems. Of particular importance are the discussions on a range of planning and environmental strategies to control pollution, as well as benchmarks for designing environmental standards geared to specific Caribbean requirements. Though complex and often technical, the topics are presented in a language and style that are accessible to non-experts. They succeed in providing relevant up to date and unbiased information about a rapidly changing industry that is intended to inform the debate on the introductions of aluminium smelting as it relates to the particular circumstances of Trinidad and Tobago and Small Island Developing States (SIDs) in general.
