Sustainable Manufacturing and Design draws together research and practices from a wide range of disciplines to help engineers design more environmentally sustainable products. Sustainable manufacturing requires that the entire manufacturing enterprise adopts sustainability goals at a system-level in decision-making, hence the scope of this book covers a wide range of viewpoints in response. Advice on recyclability, zero landfill design, sustainable quality systems, and product take-back issues make this a highly usable guide to the challenges facing engineering designers today. Contributions from around the globe are included, helping to form an international view of an issue that requires a global response.
- Addresses methods to reduce energy and material waste through manufacturing design
- Helps to troubleshoot manufacturability problems that can arise in sustainable design
- Includes coverage of the legislative, cultural and social impacts of sustainable manufacturing, promoting a holistic view of the subject
Graduate students and researchers in mechanical, manufacturing, electronic, production and industrial engineering who have an interest in manufacturing and sustainability
