Can Biomimicry Be a Useful Tool for Design for Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation?,sed and categorised, and a series of case study examples illustrate the benefits and drawbacks of each approach. In light of the conclusions reached during the course of the research, it is argued that design that mimics ecosystems and utilises synergies between mitigation and adaptation strategies

A Green Building Envelope: A Crucial Contribution to Biophilic Cities,. This movement from a biophilic perspective point of view includes combining nature and natural elements in the built environment to ameliorate the negative impact of climate change as for example loss of biodiversity, mitigation of urban heat, or air pollution reduction.

A Case Study: Bacterial Surface Treatment of Normal and Lightweight Concrete,good durability, as the durability of lightweight concrete is generally lower than that of normal concrete. In the present chapter, a previous work of the authors, a study of the bacterial surface treatment of normal and lightweight concrete (Kim et al. .) is reviewed and summarized. The surfaces of

Microbial Fuel Cells for Wastewater Treatment,exities of MFC biofilm communities. Yet, our understanding of electrochemically active microbes is still in its infancy, as the diverse communities have a multitude of undiscovered populations in different MFC applications. Further study is warranted to optimize design, materials, and microbiology t
