Abstract

System Theory (ST) is the best methodology to address the hot subject of SD and its relation to EE and the differences between them and to identify which is a subsystem of the other. To analyze both and their practical importance and relevance ISA is the best technique. In last few years SD has acquired special attention and specialized Journal entitled: European Journal for SD Research has appeared and the different aspects and applications of SD are being addressed and many research projects are being funded regarding SD research. In this paper both EE and SD are discussed from a Chemical Engineering point of view utilizing ST and ISA.


Keywords

Integrated System Approach, Sustainable Development, Environmental Engineering.
