Green manufacturing is part of the continuous improvement strategy and green energy is indispensable to carry out green manufacturing because manufacturing is energy intensive. Green energy manufacturing is not easy to carry out with conventional means, but with the introduction of nanotechnology, many technical bottlenecks of green energy manufacturing can be resolved. This paper discussed the applications of nanotechnology in green energy manufacturing, especially in the manufacturing of several typical green energy such as solar energy, nuclear energy, biomass energy and geothermal energy, and then pointed out that nanotechnology was helpful to eliminate the technical bottlenecks of green energy manufacturing. Finally, with looking forward to the future, conclusion was drown that by the use of nanotechnology in green energy manufacturing, the supply of green energy would go up to a great new level and the green energy manufacturing would get remarkable progress.

This paper presents a comparative description of traditional methods of neutralization and disposal of oilcontaining waste. The basic methods used for these purposes are effective, but they are not without significant drawbacks. In this regard, there is a need to find new ways that will be environmentally friendly and cost-effective. As such methods, low-temperature pyrolysis at the TPU 1 installation, purification of oil-contaminated sludge using solar energy, as well as complex purification of oil sludge were proposed. Their main advantages are compliance with modern environmental standards and the formation of products that can be used in the future as a result of cleaning. It was concluded that it is appropriate to use each of the proposed methods depending on the amount of contamination.

<span>Solar energy is a natural source of energy and is tremendously abundant. The concept of floating solar is to fulfil and to support the existing energy supply in order to enhance the human life. The floating solar exploits the massive availability of ocean region and the severe unavailability of land. The main purpose of this paper is to evaluate the potential of floating solar to be deployed in coastal or infield in Malaysia. It was predicted that such system could generate around 14,530 MWh per annum in Malaysia. It can be concluded that floating solar could be one of the most important ocean structures in the future because it is reliable, flexible and has virtually low cost production comparing with other ocean structures</span>
