2. GREEN MANUFACTURING
• Green manufacturing is a method for manufacturing that
minimizes waste and pollution. These goals are often achieved
through product and process design.
• It is about implementing any kind of substitution in the
manufacturing process which leads to a reduction in energy
consumption, waste and pollution.
• Green Manufacturing follows “ Manufacturing for reuse” &
“Design for disassembly”

3. Need for green manufacturing
• Environmental protection
• Environmental care to reduce
- depletion of ozone layer
-running out of natural resources
- loss of trees & forests
• Reduce the trash
• Cost saving

4. Goals of green manufacturing
• To support future generations by attaining sustainability.
• Conserve natural resource.
• To lower down the extensive amounts of trash.
• To make efficient products.

Ford Australia Ltd is one of three Australian
manufacturers of passenger vehicles and is a recognized
Australian icon. This project focused on the cleaning of
the skids used for transporting car bodies through the
paint shop at the Broadmeadows plant.
• Action: The hot caustic cleaning process was replaced by
an eco friendly high pressure water jet cleaning.
• Findings: Stimulation for the process change was
demonstration of eco friendly production process that
resulted in a consequent cost saving.

In view of low productivity and environmental pollution
in edible soy oil section, urgent steps were required to
ensure its sustainability and growth in an era of economic
liberalization.
• Action:Green productivity was adopted. The object of GP
is to minimize waste and to convert wastes into asset;
hence improving productivity and environmental
performance.
• Findings: The objective was a sustainable economic growth
based on green productivity that was achieved by
adopting green productivity

• Actions:
A. Water Conservation Measures
Reuse of wastewater generated from filter press operation for other
miscellaneous uses and recirculation of cooling water at jiggering
and kiln areas.
B. Energy Conservation Measures
Insulation of ducts & use of high efficiency motors.
C. Air pollution control
Reconditioning of Dust Extraction System of Shot blasting machine
at foundry
• Findings: Triple objectives of Resource conservation, Pollution
reduction and cost saving were pursued.

14. conclusion
• Green manufacturing is the elimination of waste
through the production process
• Green manufacturing promotes innovative design.
• Processes such as zero inventory and zero emission
should be exercised by all companies
• Companies can adopt methods which are eco-
friendly.
