Beschreibungen

<P>In the recent past, environmental innovations have led to a considerable reduction of many pollutants; however, further innovation is required to tackle remaining pollution sources. This work analyses the significance and the effects of framework conditions on innovation activities&nbsp;that contribute&nbsp;to the realisation of a sustainable development. The book links the experiences of different&nbsp;research projects&nbsp;with the aim to develop a system of indicators&nbsp;to evaluate sustainable effects of (environmental) innovations. A comprehensive framework for an indicator system&nbsp;is established&nbsp;that allows&nbsp;to include different environmental innovation fields such as process innovations in the steel production, substitution of dangerous chemicals, organisational innovations in the field of waste disposal or sustainable water management.</P>
