About mass and energy balancing

This guide provides general information about mass and energy balancing. It explains the basic concepts and demonstrates that a range of options might be relevant, depending on the context.

The guide explains the first law of thermodynamics and provides examples of how it might be applied in mass/energy balancing in both industry and domestic situations.

The information is relevant to several units of competency in the MSS Sustainability Training Package, however, the guide is not aligned to a specific unit of competency or AQF level.
