| CPAS (Clean Process Advisory System) | |
| The
Clean Process Advisory System (CPAS™) is conceived as a system
of software for efficiently delivering information on clean technologies
and pollution prevention methodologies to the conceptual process and
product designer on an as-needed basis. The system is meant to address
the challenge of incorporating environmental considerations into conceptual
process and product design, where the majority of the waste can be
reduced in a cost effective manner. Development of the system is occurring
through a series of independent projects. For further details, please contact the system producer. |
