Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView: This three-volume set collects 376 papers from the October 2011 conference on renewable and sustainable energy, environmental science, and progress in power and electrical engineering. The contributions in volume one present recent research in mineral exploration, mineral process engineering, oil and gas well development projects, petrochemical engineering, and metallurgical engineering. Topics include demand prediction for the Chinese copper industry, the fracture characteristics of a coal seam, wastewater treatment with microwave radiation, and hydraulic fracturing in shale gas wells. Volume two discusses new approaches to the storage and processing of agricultural products, saving energy in factories, urban planning, and management in the energy industry. The last volume focuses on the tricky balance between environmental protection and economic development, assessing economic and air pollution changes in Shaanxi province, species biodiversity in Korean pine forests, market competition for common resources, and financial support policies in China.
