Green manufacturing processes include waste reduction, recycling, and investing in production improvements. It provides examples of companies implementing green manufacturing strategies like JIT and zero emissions.
This document summarizes key concepts from the book Cradle to Cradle. It discusses moving from a cradle to grave model, where products are used then thrown away creating waste, to a model where waste is designed to be food for something new. It introduces the concepts of technical and biological nutrients, where technical nutrients can be reused infinitely and biological nutrients contribute nutrients back to the natural world. Examples given include edible utensils that can be thrown away without guilt and renting shoes where the upper material biodegrades while the sole is reused. A 5 step process is outlined to get free of known toxins and follow informed preferences to reinvent systems using safe materials in a circular flow.
The document discusses environmental and sustainability issues related to high-tech components and materials. It covers topics like the impact of high-tech components on the environment through increased energy consumption and new polluting industries. It also discusses concepts like life cycle analysis of materials, sustainable production, and corporate environmental responsibilities. Life cycle analysis examines the environmental impacts of a product across its entire lifecycle from raw material extraction to disposal. Sustainable production aims to create goods and services in a way that is non-polluting and conserves resources. Corporate environmental responsibility encompasses practices to manage a company's environmental impact and compliance with regulations.
This document provides an introduction to sustainable manufacturing. It discusses why manufacturing is becoming more environmentally conscious due to increasing regulation, customer demands, and cost savings. Sustainability is defined as meeting present needs without compromising future generations' ability to meet their own needs. Key concepts in sustainable manufacturing include clean technologies, sustainable production processes, and green product design. Implementing sustainable practices can range from simple housekeeping to new technologies and is a continuous improvement process rather than a final destination.
Green manufacturing aims to minimize waste and pollution through product and process design. It is a philosophy rather than a standardized process. Benefits include cost savings and improved reputation. Companies invest in pollution prevention through techniques like just-in-time manufacturing, zero emissions strategies, and life cycle management. They also use standards like ISO 9000 and 14000. An example is Murray Ohio Manufacturing, which switched from an oil lubricant to Coldkote, reducing scrap rates and costs while making waste less toxic.
The document discusses various aspects of sustainability as they relate to hotels and resorts. It provides examples of sustainable practices across operations, including waste reduction, water and energy conservation, green cleaning products, sustainable food and materials sourcing, and staff training. The goal is for hotels to minimize their environmental impact and create a holistic sustainability program through initiatives in these and other areas of operations.
This document summarizes word-of-mouth (WOM) marketing strategies. It discusses how 2/3 of the US economy is influenced by WOM and 15% of conversations include discussing products or services. It also outlines 4 steps to organizing honest WOM programs, including enlisting volunteers, providing experiences, educating participants, and communicating. Additionally, it presents a case study on how a WWM program for Wharton School Publishing resulted in a 66% lift in WOM markets. The document argues that the future of marketing will involve "people platforms" that leverage specialized networks of communicators to spread WOM.
Understanding and Harnessing Word-of-Mouth MarketingBSI
The document discusses word-of-mouth marketing and understanding how it works. It introduces the concept of "transmitters", which are people within a category that are more active in discussing that category with others. The document provides analysis showing that transmitters can be identified based on how often, how many people, and how influentially they discuss different topics. It suggests marketers should disproportionately focus on transmitters, as they are more demanding customers who deserve tailored messaging that provides deeper details beyond basic information.
Mobile: An InterestingGround for Viral and Word of Mouth MarketingBSI
The document discusses how mobile devices provide opportunities for viral and word-of-mouth (WOM) marketing. It notes that mobile is the seventh mass media and has unique advantages over previous media like always being carried and having location awareness. These traits enable easy and unpredictable WOM sharing. Examples are given of how content and apps can spread virally through mobile like SMS, ringtones, and social networks. The presentation concludes by describing Goojet, a service that aims to facilitate the easy sharing of content across web and mobile through drag-and-drop and invitation features.
The document discusses open innovation and crowdsourcing. It provides examples like the Longitude Prize from 1714 and the Orteig Prize from 1919 to illustrate that crowdsourcing has been used for a long time. It then discusses how Goldcorp, a struggling mining company, used open innovation by sharing geological data online and offering a prize, which increased the company's value tremendously. The document argues that open innovation allows companies to tap into a global network of diverse problem solvers and that the best solutions may come from people outside the relevant field. It provides examples of how InnoCentive, an open innovation marketplace, has helped various companies and organizations solve problems through crowdsourcing. In conclusion, the document states that open innovation

Searching for a graded reader can be a challenging task for students in an extensive reading program. Student using the MoodleReader View Books Block will find the categories of genre, publisher, and level but cannot determine the number of copies, location, or availability of audio CDs. In contrast, the local library search engine may display the later, but then not have the original categories in the View Books Block. These discrepancies in the categories of the search methods are caused by a lack of metadata for each graded reader. This presentation will demonstrate a Moodle Database Activity as a robust search interface to augment the MoodleReader View Book Block or as a substitute for a local library search engine. The systematic collection of metadata for readers, organization in Google sheets, and importation to a Moodle Database Activity will be demonstrated. The addition of ebooks to the Database Activity will also be displayed with discussion of how to structure an extensive reading program that is both digital and print based. Finally, opportunities for collaboration will be discussed for amassing metadata for readers to share via Google sheets, exported database entries, or a Moodle Hub.

La arquitectura barroca se desarrolló en Europa durante los siglos XVII y XVIII, caracterizada por el uso de líneas curvas y formas complejas. La arquitectura, pintura y escultura barrocas buscaban impresionar y glorificar a los monarcas a través de composiciones teatrales y exuberantes. Algunos ejemplos notables son la Basílica de San Pedro en Roma y las pinturas de Rembrandt, que utilizaban efectos dramáticos de luz y sombra. La escultura barroca también
This document summarizes a design residency project focused on reducing bulky waste, such as furniture, ending up in landfill. Each year in the UK, 1.6 million tonnes of bulky waste is thrown out, with 42% being furniture. Currently, re-use rates for items like sofas are only around 17%. The residency brought together designers, waste managers, and other stakeholders to explore how to increase re-use rates and reduce bulky waste ending up in landfill. Over 10 days, the designers investigated materials streams and systems through visits to waste facilities and a teardown of a discarded sofa. Their insights informed recommendations for designers, manufacturers, waste managers, policymakers, and local authorities to better support
This research paper examines green fashion and the role of designers in sustainable design.

Circular Design and its aspects for design.pptxAshutosh Kumar
Design is the process of creating products, services, and systems to meet human needs and desires. Circular design focuses on creating products and services for the circular economy by rethinking the design process from the beginning to ensure materials have regenerative life cycles through repair, reuse, recycling, or transformation. The principles of circular design are to understand challenges and opportunities, define goals, develop concepts through prototyping and testing, and launch products to gather feedback for continuous evolution.

Over the next few decades the number of people living in cities will nearly double. Yet even today many cities lack sufficient clean drinking water, electricity and other basic resources essentially needed to support the exploding populations and stable strengthen economy.
These problems are created by rampant urbanization and are amongst the most important challenges of our times. These problems represent greatest responsibilities for the emerging business models by positioning them to shape the sustainable economic landscape of the future.
Across the world addressing resource scarcity involves either government action or private-sector action and either increasing the resource base or managing the demand by reducing and reutilizing. A vast opportunity exists for the private sector to provide products and services that make the most efficient use of available resources.
Ecodesign is concerned with reducing environmental and social impacts through better design. It requires life cycle thinking and considering a product's impacts from design through end of life. The document discusses how ecodesign can help address issues like pollution, lack of clean water access, and species extinction by designing for full life cycles, low impact materials, fair production, and product durability. It also provides examples of ecodesign strategies and packaging that exemplify both good and bad ecodesign principles and impacts.
Localisation and the design and production of sustainable productsmerve çopur
This document discusses the importance of localizing design and production to promote sustainability. It introduces the concept of "Integrated Scales of Design and Production for Sustainability" (ISDPS), which aims to integrate different scales of production to introduce localization. This includes tailoring design solutions to diverse local user needs, and enabling post-use services like repair at local/regional levels. The document argues that localizing production in this way can better address sustainability through social, environmental and economic benefits like skilled local employment, effective resource use, and prices that reflect true environmental and social costs.
The document discusses the concept of a circular economy, which aims to design out waste and keep resources in use for as long as possible through strategies like reuse, repair, and recycling. It provides definitions and principles of a circular economy, compares it to the traditional linear economy, and outlines some benefits like cost savings and job creation. It also discusses trends driving greater adoption of circular practices, like resource constraints, rising commodity costs, new technologies, urbanization, and changing consumer attitudes. The document then gives examples of how various brands in different industries are implementing more circular business models and practices.
The Circular Economy Handbook shows how companies are taking transformative steps toward circularity, creating new opportunities for competitiveness. Read more. https://accntu.re/36AfPX6
This document discusses sustainable packaging and emerging technologies. It notes that flexible packaging has replaced rigid systems and reduced costs. Companies are joining the green movement to promote themselves and increase margins. Emerging technologies like oxo-biodegradable and hydro-biodegradable additives help reduce environmental impacts and can lower costs. While these solutions have higher costs now, technology improvements will make biodegradability a major part of packaging in the future. Businesses that commit to sustainable practices will see reduced costs and increased revenue and customer loyalty.

This document discusses sustainable manufacturing. It defines sustainable manufacturing as reducing negative environmental and social impacts while considering environmental, social and governance factors. An example of a sustainable process is one that resembles natural ecosystems by using local resources and waste to create new materials. The document outlines challenges to achieving sustainability, such as short-term profit pressures conflicting with long-term goals. However, sustainable practices can save money and resources. Examples of companies making progress include Patagonia and Seventh Generation.
The document discusses how sustainability has become an important consideration for businesses facing pressure from customers. It argues that sustainability means reducing waste and inefficiency throughout supply chains. The key is taking a holistic approach - redefining core philosophies, improving design and processes, and increasing collaboration across the supply chain to create closed-loop systems. Examples like HP's D2545 printer show how sustainable products and processes can be developed through considering waste from start to end of life.
Circular economy - a new paradigm in manufacutringRanjani491
The document discusses the linear "take-make-waste" model of production and consumption that has dominated the last 150 years. This linear model is unsustainable as it depletes natural resources and produces large amounts of waste. The document introduces circular economy as an alternative model that aims to eliminate waste and the use of toxic chemicals, be powered by renewable energy, and design products to be reused and recycled to keep resources in use for as long as possible. It provides examples of companies implementing circular economy principles and argues that the circular model represents significant opportunities for cost savings, risk mitigation, innovation and job creation compared to the linear economy.
This document discusses environmental sustainability and ways for businesses to reduce waste and be more environmentally efficient. It provides information on the importance of environmental sustainability, how businesses can damage the environment, and steps they can take to reduce waste through reducing consumption, reusing materials, recycling, and purchasing recycled products. The document outlines specific strategies businesses can implement across communications, printing, purchasing policies, and customer education to cut waste production and costs while protecting the environment.
Green VTT has commitment to develop technologies for the bio-economy to benefit society through prosperity through less environmental burden. Industrial biomaterials spearhead program is targeting new value added applications on non-food related biomass in the fields of marked industrial importance, such as packaging, composites and appliances. The development is based on long research activity in the fields of biomass fractionation and converting as well deep expertise on the material sciences, converting technologies and application.
This Research Highlights focuses on novel biopolymers from forest industry side-streams that have been developed for bio-packing applications, like oxygen and grease barrier materials for fibre webs. Development of translucent and mouldable fibre based packaging and modification and regeneration of cellulose enabled new openings. The main achievement is, however, the nanocellulose development that has progressed to the international top level, enabling VTT partners to move to the industrial scale test runs and pilot decisions. Research and development in the area of industrial biomaterials has a positive impact on chemical, forest and packing industry.

53. A Sustainable Future
Ecologically Sound Industry
Industrial ecology views industry’s impact on the environment
in terms of a comprehensive system that uses and disposes of
materials. We can learn to close the materials loop more effi-
ciently by thinking on a larger scale about the flow back into
industry of materials that would otherwise be discarded into
the environment. There are numerous means of protecting
the environment from industrial wastes. We can, for example,
forgo the benefits of a potentially harmful material or we can
seek to replace it with a more benign substitute.
We can redesign products with the intention of reus-
ing materials and components. It is not yet clear what mix of
remedies will most economically minimize the impact of in-
dustrial materials on the environment. The various possibil-
ities hold out great promise, but there are complex problems
and barriers to be overcome as we develop and implement a
new, ecologically sound model for the management of materi-
als in industry.
The industrial ecology perspective is beginning to
influence designers of manufacturing processes. Designers of
products are beginning to view their creations as transient
embodiments of matter and energy with added value that can
be recaptured and recreated within a continuing flow of ma-
terials extending beyond the point of sale. Products and the
materials they contain are being designed so that they can be
reused at the end of their lives.
We strongly believe
finding a sustainable
future is necessary
not only in our
business, but also
for our world.

Our Responsibility
Waste Reduction & Self-Sufficiency
One way for industry to be more self-sufficient and less
wasteful is to improve the efficiency of materials use. It
seems worthwhile to examine both production processes and
product designs to see if the use of materials (and energy)
can be improved. Currently, when products wear out or are
replaced by newer models, they are usually thrown away.
They may be used as landfill or incinerated or they may
litter the landscape.
Regulatory pressures and shifting public opinion have
spurred the industrial and engineering community to initiate
efforts aimed at closing the materials loops more effectively
and improving energy-use efficiencies.
Closing the loop on those value-added materials raises
an important question: Is the product simply the hardware
being sold, or is it rather the services that the product can
provide? There was a time when it was common practice to
lease rather than sell many products outright. In a lease-
based system, the manufacturer controls and therefore is
responsible for the end of the product’s life and is always pre-
pared to take it back for recycling, reuse, or refurbishment.
Our sustainability
effort now covers
every aspect of our
work day, processes,
and all the steps
required to publish,
print and sell books.

54. Books that Feel RightNovel Ideas
Material & Energy Streams
The whole industrial process can be thought of as a closed
cycle in which the manufacturer has overall custody for the
material used. In this system, the manufacturer must con-
sider the entire material and energy stream, from materials
input and manufacturing through the life of the product and
its eventual reuse or disposal.
Designing a product as a temporary provider of a ser-
vice, to be used later in the creation of another product, is a
novel idea in modern manufacturing and raises a new set of
issues. A product is generally sold with the assumption that a
consumer or sequence of consumers will use it until it cannot
be used anymore. If the manufacturer thinks about taking
it back for remanufacturing, the length of time the product
spends in the customer’s hands becomes an adjustable design
variable. The maker may not want the product to wear out
by being used for an indefinite time and so might choose to
reclaim it at an optimum time for remanufacture. Thus, the
notion of “what is a product?” changes. Similarly, its life cycle
may also change. The manufacturer may increasingly want
to choose materials and designs that take into account the
product’s eventual “de-manufacture” and reuse.
Production Process & Product Design
It seems worthwhile to examine both production processes
and product designs to see if the use of materials (and ener-
gy) can be improved. Our company is designing new products
with reuse, remanufacture, and recycling in mind.
The industrial ecology perspective is beginning to
influence designers of manufacturing processes. Designers of
products are beginning to view their creations as transient
embodiments of matter and energy with added value that can
be recaptured and recreated within a continuing flow of ma-
terials extending beyond the point of sale. Products and the
materials they contain are being designed so that they can be
reused at the end of their lives.
As products are redesigned for newer more cyclical ma-
terial use, some of the material problems may be eliminated
through smarter design. However, it will not always be possi-
ble to “design out” problematic materials.
The barriers to industrial recycling of metals can be
classified into six interrelated areas: technical hurdles, eco-
nomic barriers, information barriers, organizational obsta-
cles, regulatory issues, and legal concerns.
We can redesign products with the intention of reusing
materials and components. The various possibilities hold out
great promise, but there are complex problems and barriers to
be overcome as we develop and implement a new, ecologically
sound model for the management of materials in industry.
We evaluate each book we publish
in the context of the environment,
quality and durability.

55. Reading Responsibly By the Books
Production & Consumption
Human economic activity has been characterized by an open
and linear system of materials flows, where materials are
taken in, transformed, used, and thrown out. Tools, clothing,
and other products have been forged and fashioned from nat-
ural plant, animal, and mineral materials. Worn-out goods
and materials left over from the production process have
been dumped in backyards and landfills. Even archaeologists
find discarded reminders of the past: scrap stone, flints, and
potsherds - in the rubbish dumps of the Neolithic period.
People moved to new habitats when the old locations became
unsuitable because of accumulated wastes.
Today, there are more of us and fewer new places to
which to move. We face serious pollution in many locations
and have poisoned some areas into uninhabitability. As hu-
man populations grow, discarding waste material is becom-
ing increasingly problematic.
As the green game is played out in corporate board-
rooms, the shop floor, in the home, and in the community, it
is clear that technology and engineering will continue to play
a critical role in reducing many environmental impacts of
production and consumption.
Environmental Bookkeeping
The cost of eliminating or reusing certain materials must be
balanced against the cost of disposal. Disposal costs bring up
the question of how companies should take account of indi-
rect costs such as the effect of wastes on the environment.
There are costs involved in collecting, sorting, and
transporting used-up products, scrap, and waste. Such sepa-
ration requires information, effort, and energy, which must
all be paid for. These costs must be compared with the costs
of new materials.
Standard management and other accounting systems
often do not track costs in a way that is useful to designers.
Design engineers may not know of the real costs to the com-
pany of the materials they choose. Designers generally have
no idea what waste problems will be posed by manufacturing
with different materials.
These issues could be dealt with by including the costs
of environmental damage in the company’s bookkeeping. The
bookkeeping approach would provide an incentive to mini-
mize such costs, and it might force a truer comparison of the
costs of alternative schemes. However, it has proved very dif-
ficult to find suitable, agreed-upon measures for such costs.

Materials & Energy Flows
The study of industrial systems (materials and energy flows)
from the perspective of natural ecosystems. Natural eco-
systems have evolved so that any available source of useful
material or energy is used by some organism in the system.
Animals and plants live on each other and on each other’s
waste matter. These systems do, of course, leave some waste
materials, or fossil fuels would not exist. But on the whole,
the system regulates itself and consumes what it produces.
Neither technology nor technological know-how are in
short supply. The primary opportunities come from the con-
tinued, sustained application of existing technology to iden-
tified problems. The primary need is to create the incentives
and techniques for companies to use technology and knowl-
edge to improve environmental quality.
The internal organization of a firm can be difficult to
change. Changing the whole concept of a product or adding
new criteria for environmental compatibility to the design
process may not fit the ideas on which the firm operates or its
internal incentive system. The business structure may make
perception and solution of problems that cross organization
lines very difficult.
Design for Materials & Energy
As human populations grow, discarding waste material is
becoming increasingly problematic. One way for industry to
be more self-sufficient and less wasteful is to improve the effi-
ciency of materials use. It seems worthwhile to examine both
production processes and product designs to see if the use of
materials (and energy) can be improved.
The whole industrial process can be thought of as a
closed cycle in which the manufacturer has overall custody
for the material used. In this system, the manufacturer must
consider the entire material and energy stream, from mate-
rials input and manufacturing through the life of the product
