Abstract:
Eco-design is a crucial approach in achieving sustainable manufacturing, which seeks to reduce the environmental impact of products and processes throughout their lifecycle. This paper explores the principles and tools that are used in eco-design, providing an overview of the key concepts and methods for sustainable manufacturing. The principles of eco-design are centered on minimizing the environmental impact of products and processes through the use of renewable resources, reducing waste and emissions, and improving energy and material efficiency. The paper discusses these principles in detail and highlights the benefits that can be achieved by implementing eco-design in manufacturing. The tools and methods of eco-design include life cycle assessment (LCA), design for environment (DfE), and environmental management systems (EMS) whereas DfE involves designing products and processes to minimize their environmental impact. EMS provides a framework for managing environmental performance across an organization. The paper also discusses the challenges of implementing eco-design in manufacturing, including the need for collaboration across different functions within an organization, the availability of data and resources, and the complexity of the supply chain. Organizations can implement eco design by utilizing Life Cycle Assessment, eco-labeling, and Design for the Environment. This approach can help organizations initiate or improve sustainable production practices.

Abstract:
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a direct impact on the manufacturing industry in Malaysia because all economic activities had to be suspended for some time. This study explores the role that eco-innovation capabilities might play in improving sustainable business performance during the ongoing pandemic. This study employs a quantitative method by distributing online questionnaires to 80 small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Klang Valley, Malaysia. In the study, the relationship between sustainable business performance and the three variables of eco-innovation capabilities, i.e., eco-product innovation, eco-management innovation and eco-logistic innovation, were determined using multiple regression analysis. The results indicate that two hypotheses are accepted and the other one is rejected. The findings indicate that most manufacturing SMEs in Klang Valley have adopted eco-management innovation and eco-logistic innovation as crucial capabilities for their businesses during the pandemic. However, due to the challenges faced by these SMEs during the pandemic, eco-product innovation was found to have an insignificant relationship with sustainable business performance. It is insignificant because of the low productivity rate observed during the pandemic. Hence, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused manufacturing SMEs in the Klang Valley to not be able to maintain their operations and stay on track. Therefore, this research may contribute to the efforts of policymakers, government agencies and managers of manufacturing SMEs in developing a strong innovation platform on which manufacturing SMEs may rely for support in enhancing their business capacity and performance.

Abstract:
Export value took more than half of GDP in average from 2007 to 2011. In recent years, Nations issued a large amount of environment standards; as a result, Chinese exported products suffered recall in main target nation of export because product did not meet requirement of eco-design. In China, small and medium-sized enterprises took more than half of total enterprise in manufacturing. For small and medium-sized enterprises, it is difficult to know well about all environment standards in world. This paper draw proposal for the development of Chinese manufacturing.

Abstract:
Here, the authors focused on determining the increase in consumers’ preferences for sustainable products, including that of OEMs, who are responsible for the drop in new product sales. We also assessed the effects of remanufacturing by outsourcing to third-party remanufacturers. However, the outsourcing of remanufacturing not only enables the producer to offer a remanufactured product at the same time as manufacturing new units; it also provides OEMs with the flexibility required to peruse eco-design in manufacturing and/or remanufacturing. For instance, Gree and Midea have heavily invested in eco-design to reduce energy costs in manufacturing, while Xerox has adopted a modular design approach to divert materials away from landfills and towards remanufacturing. Following observations of real-world applications, the authors developed two theoretical models in which remanufacturing can be outsourced to an independent remanufacturer, endowing the OEM with the flexibility required to enact eco-design in manufacturing or remanufacturing. This analysis reveals that OEMs tend to put more effort into eco-design in manufacturing than in remanufacturing. Furthermore, such efforts in the name of eco-design may be beneficial for both the OEM and the third-party remanufacturer. As such, this paper encourages governments to provide more incentives that will encourage OEMs to invest in eco-design in manufacturing and establish a possible “win–win” scenario in terms of both environmental and economic performances.

Abstract:
Eco-efficiency improvements in manufacturing is a controversial subject for researchers, practitioners as well as policy makers. The widely accepted definition of "doing more with less" is not accurate enough to guide the design of improvements that can deliver products in a sustainable way. The outcome of these challenges is evident through significant environmental performance variations across various levels of manufacturing operations. The study is driven by the complexity of manufacturing systems and sought to offer design support for practitioners that aim to improve eco-efficiency. A maturity model has been developed in this work that simulates the influence of manufacturing practices on eco-efficiency. The model takes the form of a maturity grid (PMGE) that overlooks practices at process, management systems and top-management levels and incorporates 15 dimensions of performance overall. Evidence shows that practices tend to evolve from reactive to proactive as manufacturing systems mature and embrace eco- efficiency as a systemic property. It was also found that mature companies achieve improvements in energy and resources by relying on existing internal capabilities. Tools to facilitate research and intervene with practitioners in real-life problems were developed and tested. The researcher combined research findings and tools into a maturity-based method (PMGEM) for eco-efficiency improvements. The method intends to help practitioners plan and design eco- efficiency improvements aligned to existing internal capabilities and adopt a more proactive behaviour to environmental challenges. PMGEM was ultimately applied in two case studies with ultimate goal to help practitioners resolve real-life challenges. The applications were positively commented and encourage further work in this field. The researcher envisages that methods such as PMGEM are deeply needed in manufacturing to support practitioners approach complex concepts such as eco-efficiency. Simplification and decomposition techniques with a clear intended use can facilitate the implementation of ambitious improvement strategies for sustainable development.

Abstract:
Over the last decades the concept of eco-innovation has increased its relevance among academics, practitioners and policy makers. The majority of prior literature has concerned eco-innovations and their drivers. Research concerning the barriers to eco-innovation is however scarce, especially among large companies. The purpose with this thesis is therefore to extract further information regarding the field of the barriers to eco-innovation. The aim is to contribute with enhanced knowledge and expand the current literature, as focus is placed on large companies and their barriers. This has been done by implementing a qualitative approach. Twelve semi-structured interviews have been performed with respondents in nine large Swedish manufacturing companies. Secondary data has also been collected in order to triangulate the primary data. The findings show that the main barriers for the large companies to be eco-innovative are related to the awareness in the organization, the quality requirements for the products and production process as well as the regulations affecting the company.

Abstract:
Increasingly, services are utilised by manufacturing companies to satisfy demand. This trend is thought by a number of authors to provide opportunities to develop products that satisfy demand at increased resource efficiencies. This thesis considers a special category of services which have been conceptualised by academics and policy makers to realise this - Eco-services Eco-services have been the focus of a number of research projects lead by those practicing and associated with cleaner product design. This work has mainly focused on product policy and whilst a considerable body of knowledge has been accumulated, the array of factors that would lead to the successful transfer (from academia and to UK manufacturing companies) of this exogenous concept were unknown. This thesis sought to identify and understand these. Two inter linked phases of research were initiated and completed. The first was inductive in nature and was comprised of a Pilot Study. In this data was elicited from a variety of sources so as to provide a robust foundation of knowledge upon which subsequent enquiry could be initiated. It concluded with the construction of an initial conceptual framework which described the attributes of receptivity that were found in UK manufacturing firms to be specific to the Eco-service concept. Also, a number of research propositions were generated so as to guide research in phase two. The second deductive phase of research was undertaken so as to test the initial conceptual framework. A Main Study was carried out in order to elicit primary qualitative data from two UK manufacturing companies. This work was guided by the research propositions and a more in-depth understanding of the attributes of receptivity was gained. This body of knowledge was utilised to refine the initial conceptual framework. This research identified and understood the range of factors that give rise to the successful inward transfer of the Eco-service concept in U manufacturing companies. Eight attributes of receptivity were identified and described in the final conceptual framework. The intention of this work was not to refute current trajectories of research within the Eco-service domain, but rather to provide an additional body of knowledge that can be thought to enable those authors in the Eco-service domain to realise the opportunity that the emergent trajectory of services provides to significantly improve resource efficiencies.

Abstract:
L'industrialisation d'un produit de rupture dans le contexte spécifique d'une startup Deeptech est difficile, stressante et risquée. Elle nécessite un processus bien structuré, aligné sur la R&D du produit et le développement des procédés, le développement de la startup elle-même, et le développement ou l'adaptation d'outils et de méthodes spécifiques. Cette thèse aborde la question de l'industrialisation et de la mise à l'échelle de la production d'un produit innovant avec des objectifs de durabilité ambitieux. Une startup se distingue par ses ressources limitées qui se développent rapidement et sa maturité hétérogène des défis de processus/production.La recherche a été effectuée dans le cadre d'un contrat CIFRE au sein d'une start-up qui conçoit une pile à combustible bio-enzymatique. Le travail de recherche a été effectué simultanément à un travail d'ingénieur, permettant de tester les décisions théoriques et académiques et les décisions pratiques de l'entreprise pour faire progresser le processus d'industrialisation, telles que le développement de machines feuille-à-feuille et rouleau-à-rouleau.Les principaux résultats sont de nouveaux outils de prise de décision et de gestion de projet utiles dans un tel contexte. En particulier, les concepts de Minimum Viable Product (MVP) et de conception intégrée sont proposés pour soutenir une approche systémique et une prise de décision holistique. Un modèle permettant de piloter simultanément le développement de la startup et du produit a été développé et un outil de pilotage pratique est proposé. Il est basé sur les TRL et MRL, une version adaptée du DRL ainsi qu’un un nouveau niveau de préparation à la durabilité (SRL), afin de définir l'effort (concept de Delta) nécessaire pour atteindre l'objectif
Industrializing a disruptive product in the specific context of a Deeptech startup is challenging, stressing, and risky. It requires a well-structured process, aligned with the product R&D and process developments and the development of the startup itself, and the development/adaptation of specific tools and methods. This thesis addresses the question of industrializing and scaling up the production of an innovative product with ambitious sustainability targets. A startup differs from by its limited resources that develops quickly and its heterogeneous maturity of process/production challenges.The research was carried out in a CIFRE position at a startup designing an innovative bio-enzymatic fuel cell. The research work was done simultaneously of an engineering work, allowing tests of theoretical and academic-based decisions and practical company decisions to make the industrialization process progress such as development of sheet-to-sheet and roll-to-roll machines.The main results are new decision-making and project management tools useful in such a context. In particular, the concepts of Minimum Viable Product (MVP) and Integrated Design are proposed to support a systemic approach and a holistic decision-making. A model to pilot both the startup and product developments simultaneously has been developed and a practical steering tool is proposed. It is based on the well-known TRL and MRL, an adapted Demand Readiness Level (DRL) and a new Sustainability Readiness Level (SRL), to define the effort (concept of delta) required to achieve the objective

Abstract:
Preocupações com sustentabilidade ambiental são recorrentes tanto no meio acadêmico, como no meio empresarial. Elas ecoam ao se pensar no crescimento econômico chinês e nos impactos das atividades produtivas no meio ambiente. A China é o país emergente com as maiores taxas de crescimento econômico no mundo, porém sua imagem também reflete sua vulnerabilidade com relação à ecologia. Tendo isso em consideração e procurando compreender como isso repercute nas operações internacionais, esta tese estuda os determinantes estratégicos das empresas chinesas em operação no Brasil, pelas lentes teóricas do tripé da estratégia. A sustentabilidade ambiental se operacionalizou em ecoeficiência, termo desdobrado em eco-inovação, eco-reputação e manufatura verde. Dado que os aspectos estratégicos direcionam as ações empresariais, isto se torna ainda mais complexo ao se analisar a operação internacional, uma vez que além dos aspectos internos e de mercado, a empresa é influenciada por forças institucionais relacionados com seu mercado de origem e com o mercado de destino das vendas externas. Esta tese inova ao relacionar aspectos do tripé da estratégia com as estratégias de ecoeficiência de empresas chinesas no Brasil. São utilizadas técnicas quantitativas para testar as hipóteses. A análise é feita utilizando modelo de equações estruturais, com o software SmartPLS v3. Os resultados indicam que há associação positiva entre os recursos internos da empresa e ações de ecoeficiência nos seus três desdobramentos (eco-inovação, eco-reputação e manufatura verde). No caso da visão baseada na indústria, encontrou-se associação positiva com manufatura verde e eco-reputação, mas não com as iniciativas de eco-inovação. Os aspectos institucionais do mercado brasileiro não puderam ser associados com nenhuma das iniciativas de ecoeficiência. Esta tese contribui para o entendimento de determinantes estratégicos na adoção de iniciativas ambientais, ao indicar a importância dos recursos na implantação dessas estratégias. Não se confirma a importância da vertente institucional no modelo teórico-conceitual, o que mostra limitação à extensão dessa teoria. Os resultados, do ponto de vista gerencial, mostram que as forças de mercado estimulam as empresas a empreender em iniciativas de eco-reputação e os processos de manufatura. Contudo, verifica-se que os aspectos de eco-inovação nas empresas chinesas ainda não foram influenciados pelas demandas do mercado brasileiro.
Concerns about environmental sustainability are recurrent both in academy and in business. This concern echoes especially because of the impact of Chinese productive activities on the environment. China is an emerging country with the highest economic growth rates in the world, but its image also reflects their vulnerability on ecological issues. Taking this into consideration, this thesis studies the strategic determinants of Chinese companies operating in Brazil by the theoretical lenses of strategic tripod. Environmental sustainability is operationalized into eco-efficiency, a term translated into eco-innovation, eco-reputation and green manufacturing. To the extent that strategy directs business actions, it becomes even more complex when analyzing the international operation, as well as internal aspects and market, the company is influenced by institutional forces from home market and the target market of foreign sales. This thesis contributes to relate aspects of the strategy tripod with the eco-efficiency strategies of Chinese companies in Brazil. This thesis contributes to relate the strategy tripod with the eco-efficiency strategies of Chinese companies. To this end, methodology was quantitative, with data collected and examined in order to confirm or refute the hypothesis. They were analyzed by structural equation model, with SmartPLS v3 software. The results indicate that there is a positive association between the internal resources and eco-efficiency in its three developments (eco-innovation, eco-green reputation and manufacturing). About the industry-based view, there is a positive association with green manufacturing and eco-reputation, but not with eco-innovation initiatives. Brazilian institutional aspects could not be associated with any of the eco-efficiency strategies. To literature, this thesis contributes to the understanding of strategic determinants on adopting environmental initiatives. It highlights the importance of resources in the implementation of eco strategies. However, tests do not confirm the importance of institutional aspects in the theoretical-conceptual model, which exposes the limited extent of this theory. From the managerial side results show that market forces encourage companies to engage in eco-reputation and green manufacturing process initiatives. However, it appears, according to the data, which aspects of eco-innovation in Chinese companies have not been influenced by the Brazilian market demands.

Abstract:
This thesis describes the process of making a new engine for the car DNV Fuel Fighter 2 that participated in the Shell Eco-Marathon Europe 2012 in Rotterdam. The decision was made to construct a new engine based on an optimized design by Lubna Nasrin. The engine is an ironless axial flux permanent magnet machine with Hallbach array. As a contingency plan there was the possibility to modify the engine used in 2010 and 2011 built by André Dahl-Jacobsen. The result of the process is that the new engine is operational and it has displayed an efficiency of 68 %. However the old engine has displayed an efficiency of 86 %. Because of this, the car raced with the old engine and had an energy consumption of 163 km/kWh. It is still believed that the new engine can be a very successful engine given that it is modified. The new engine has room for improvement especially with regards to stator production and wiring connections. Suggestions are made for how to achieve a higher efficiency. This thesis describes some of the practical engineering challenges that arise when constructing a novel motor. The construction of the Hallbach array is well described here.This work has been a part of a larger project where the end goal was to participate in and win the Shell Eco Marathon Europe. This means that the engine must not only perform well on its own. The engine must also function well with the other components technically and it must be possible to make it with the time and resources available. The development of new technology is expensive and it has therefore been a priority to find funding for this project. This will also be described.

Abstract:
I noticed that the workers had the same itinerary when emptying trashcans, meanwhile trashcans needed urgently to be emptied. Traditionally, ETSU maintenance operate on daily routes to pick trash on designated time, regardless the level of the containers. This leads to overflown trashcan in busy areas or during rush hours in certain areas. This overflown trashcan result in an unclean environment for the community and an unpleasant look of our beautiful campus. The time, resources and labor invested in collecting the trash could be saved. Therefore, I decided to use the Internet of Things (IoT) to create a device that will optimize trash collection, to reduce costs and pollution. The Eco-Smart Can will contain a renewable source of energy such as the solar panel. Furthermore, it will have a compactor as well to decrease the trash volume. The system in the Eco-Smart can will give prior information of the trash level to maintenance facility so that they can empty the trash in a timely manner and preserve the environment.

Abstract:
Triacetic acid lactone (TAL) is a bio-privileged molecule with potential as a chemical precursor, traditionally synthesized from petroleum. Current trends are shifting towards the use of renewable biomass or CO2-derived feedstocks to enhance sustainability. However, comprehensive studies on the techno-economic viability and carbon life cycle of such methods are limited. This study assesses TAL production from conventional glucose and a novel approach co-feeding Yarrowia lipolytica (YL) with glucose and formic acid (FA), aiming for a more cost-effective and eco-friendly process. We confront the inherent challenges in this process by exploring different technology scenarios using kinetic bioprocess modeling underpinned by techno-economic analysis (TEA) and life cycle assessment (LCA) to identify the most cost-effective and sustainable routes to TAL production. A noteworthy component of our investigation centers around the prospect of recycling and utilizing the CO2 emitted from the YL bioreactor to eliminate greenhouse gas emissions inherent in aerobic fermentation processes. The study combines TEA and LCA to dissect the proposed TAL bio-production routes, evaluating the sustainability of the process and the implications of net-zero greenhouse gas emission manufacturing. We employed SuperPro Designer and Aspen software for process simulation and energy balance computations. The results underscore the benefits of CO2 recycling in TAL production, with an estimated minimum selling price (MSP) slightly increasing by 6.21-7.80% compared to traditional methods, but significantly undercutting the market price of $51000/mt-TAL and achieving net-negative CO2 emissions. This research illustrates a viable route to bio-production with net-zero emissions, providing a model for future bioprocessing and industrial practices.

Abstract:
Design for environment (DfE) is one of the design for X (DfX) strategies. Simplistically, DfE tries to lessen the effect of product design on the environment of a product. It takes into account the whole life cycle of a product. Eco-design is a tool of DfX. It includes paying attention to all the environmental effects of a product starting from the earliest stage of design process. It is defined as an activity that determines environmental influences of a product, and then systematically integrates these influences into product development process in the beginning of the design process. In order to reduce environmental effects of a product, factors such as function, cost, performance, quality, usage, reuse, refuse, waste and legal and technical aspects should be considered during the eco-design process. In this study, eco-design and its affecting factor was evaluated in automotive sub-contractor sector in Turkey. In order to determine standpoint of companies to eco-design, a survey was performed. 61 companies performing automotive subcontractor sector attended to the survey. The survey results were evaluated by using SPSS 17.0 statistical software.

Abstract:
Global trends indicate that energy consumption in manufacturing automation is an important aspect to support next generation of sustainable eco-factories. Some manufacturing processes consume large amounts of energy to fully be automated. Researchers have been emphasizing the significant challenge energy generation will be in coming years to fulfill demand. Therefore, there is a need to explore new ways of reducing manufacturing automation energy consumption. This paper focuses on research concerned with energy consumption in a fully integrated manufacturing automation, and argues that the understanding of different approaches to explore novel tools for sustainable manufacturing is important to support eco-factories.
