Description

This lecture explores the impact of global climate drivers on sustainable manufacturing, discussing the three pillars of sustainability - society, economics, and the environment. It delves into fair trade principles, the transition from linear to closed-loop systems, and the life cycles of products. The instructor also covers the implementation of sustainable manufacturing through process optimization, raw material substitution, new technologies, and new product design. Various methods such as lean manufacturing, materials optimization, and eco-attributes are discussed, along with the importance of weight reduction and complexity for free in additive manufacturing.
