Sustainable Manufacturing: Effect of Material Selection and Design to the Environmental Impact in the Manufacturing Process

The environmental impact of a manufacturing process is also dependent on the selection of the material and design of a product. This is because the manufacturing of a product is directly connected to the amount of carbon emitted in consuming the electrical energy for that manufacturing process. The...
