Bioenergy is renewable energy generated from biological source materials, and includes electricity, transportation fuels and heating. Source materials are varied types of biomass, including food crops such as corn and sugarcane, non-edible lignocellulosic materials such as agricultural and forestry waste and dedicated crops, and municipal and livestock wastes. Key aspects of policies for bioenergy deployment...

This paper investigates how the speed and nature of disaster waste management impacts on residents belonging to different socio-economic backgrounds, with a particular focus on the 2011 January Floods in Brisbane, Australia.

This paper documents recent research, which assessed the technical, economic and social feasibility of stormwater and wastewater recycling for both potable and non-potable end-uses.

These pressures require the water industry to develop innovative and more efficient processes to optimise resource recovery from wastewater, according to a new report by the Academy of Technology and Engineering (ATSE). The report notes that Australian wastewater contains nutrients, carbon, energy and other inorganic and organic resources worthy of recovery and examines the potential...

Forecasting for integrated demands and carbon impacts of a precinct in the ETWW (energy, transport, waste and water) domains will allow for the assessment of policy scenarios for low carbon futures.
