  • comprehensive approach to increase energy efficiency based on versatile industrial practices
    Journal of Cleaner Production, 2016
    Co-Authors: Janez Petek, Peter Glavič, Anja Kostevsek
    Abstract:

    Abstract Throughout industrial practice, the problem is that of identifying a suitable holistic approach connecting Cleaner Production, Total Site Integration, and Energy Efficiency Optimization. The combination of all the before mentioned concepts is believed to be crucial for comprehensive assessment of the energy and environmental issues within a company. Various case studies are included within this paper regarding the implementations of cleaner production principles, energy Audit Performance, pinch analysis and various optimisation techniques' calculations. Several energy Audits of industrial processes within the dairy, ceramic, metal processing and meat processing industries, services such as laundries and of public buildings were carried out in order to find possibilities for increasing the overall energy efficiencies of industrial processes, buildings and energy systems. On the bases of the results and the knowledge obtained from the projects mentioned in the paper, a Total Site – Cleaner Production – Energy Efficiency – Optimisation approach is proposed which enables gradual research, development and integration of Cleaner production, Energy Auditing and Optimisation combined within novel optimisation methods and its concepts. The main objective of the research was the use of analysis regarding industrial practices when developing a holistic Total Site – Cleaner Production – Energy Efficiency – Optimisation approach for supporting industrial needs during the optimisation of energy demand. This novel approach consists of three phases that include within each one the traditional Total Site Integration, Cleaner Production and Energy Efficiency – Optimization methods with a proposed novel structure for addressing the energy and environmental categories within industry. This novel approach could generate greater efficiency due to combining the different methods and consequently having a higher more positive impact on the environment. The scientific added value is demonstrated through the combination of Total Site, Cleaner Production and Energy Efficiency Optimization approaches as a comprehensive unit and by the proposal of this novel procedure for the implementation of Total Site – Cleaner Production – Energy Efficiency – Optimisation approach.

  • the Audit expectations gap plus ca change plus c est la meme chose
    Critical Perspectives on Accounting, 1992
    Co-Authors: Christopher Humphrey, Peter Moizer, Stuart Turley
    Abstract:

    Abstract This paper explores the response of the accounting profession to the Audit expectations gap, with primary reference to the profession's behaviour in the United Kingdom during the period of the last 20 years. Starting from a brief examination of the history of expectation concerns over a somewhat longer period, it is argued that both the existence of a gap and the specific aspects of Audit Performance it comprises have shown considerable continuity and resilience against solution. The profession's response to the expectations gap are then discussed, considering them as interrelated with, rather than independent of, the nature of professional interests. Two main strategies of response are identified: a defensive approach focusing on education and reassurance of the public; and a constructive approach, seeking to convey a willingness to change Audit activities to meet public concern. The paper evaluates these responses, and their likelihood of success in reducing expectations problems, in the context of the inherent conflicts in the structure of Auditing as a self-regulated activity,
