    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    This forward-thinking book offers an actionable roadmap to reinventing fossil fuel ports as circular economy precincts. The authors advocate for decarbonised ports that recover materials, host clean energy production plants, and support new industries. With coordinated effort, ports can cut emissions, create skilled jobs, attract investment and improve local environments.


    Using real-world cases, the book provides clear guidance on assessing existing assets and hinterland strengths, launching low-risk pilot projects, scaling proven technologies, redesigning business models and aligning policy, finance and governance. Chapters cover industrial symbiosis, renewable power, digital and automation solutions, funding options, and community engagement, with checklists, metrics and practical examples.


    Navigating Ports and the Circular Economy is an essential resource for students and scholars in transport and maritime studies, industrial ecology and sustainability. It is also a beneficial guide for port leaders, policymakers, investors and communities seeking a credible path from fossil fuel dependence to resilient, low‑carbon growth.



    This forward-thinking book offers an actionable roadmap to reinventing fossil fuel ports as circular economy precincts. The authors advocate for decarbonised ports that recover materials, host clean energy production plants, and support new industries. With coordinated effort, ports can cut emissions, create skilled jobs, attract investment and improve local environments.

    ‘An indispensable guide to the increasingly essential topic of the circular economy and the strategies through which ports can diversify their activities (and revenues) away from fossil fuel. It not only explains the technical options but also considers how port managers can navigate social and political issues.’
