Abstract: Substance and energy are the main forms under which both the processes at the economy basis (production and trade) and of the ecosphere (from soil and subsoil, biosphere and atmosphere) are presenting. Therefore, mass-energy models allow a unified treatment of the “social metabolism” and of its interaction with the environment. In this study, we present the most important models in this regard.
