For over 20 years he has taught both statistics and management science to MBA students. During his career he has published some 50 referred papers in such diverse areas as statistical process control, total quality management, multidimensional scaling and the analytical hierarchy process. In addition Michael has co-authored two text books and developed a major piece of software. Michael works in applicable mathematics, the solution of real world problems employing statistical and management science techniques. Most of this research has included computer applications.   \u003cb\u003eCombustion Residues\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eCurrent, Novel and Renewable Applications\u003c\/b\u003e  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMillions of tons of combustion residues, in particular fly ash and municipal waste bottom ash, are generated every year in the world requiring utilization or disposal. With the increasing limitation on disposal to landfill because of environmental, economic and space requirements new products and markets are required. The traditional uses in cement and concrete production and road construction are not sufficient to cope with the increasing volume of residues. In addition, the introduction of mixed fuels for power generation and new combustion technologies coupled with the increasing use of incineration for municipal wastes create new challenges for the use of these ‘secondary raw materials'.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis volume on novel products derived from the new generation of combustion ashes:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eshows how combustion residues, as well as being used in the above traditional outlets, can also be useful source of primary feed materials for a range of industrial high value products such as zeolites; ceramics; glass fibres; glass polyalkenoate cements for biomedical applications; fire resistant materials; fillers for rubber and plastics; etc\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ediscusses the nature of ashes derived from coal co-combustion, biomass and other fuels in traditional and stand-alone power plants and municipal waste incinerators\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ediscusses the development of novel commercial products incorporating such ashes, including the importance of technical and environmental standards, marketing strategies and promotion\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003epresents an example of how one particular industry has approached the problem of introducing new materials into an established industrial process and the difficulties this has caused\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eprovides an important source book for research scientists and engineers in the fields of power generation, environment and construction.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis volume is relevant to industries that produce combustion residues or utilize them in their manufacturing processes e.g. power generation, municipal incinerators, cement and concrete manufactures, ceramic industries (e.g. brick and tile manufacturers) and polymer producers.
