Green design is a key technology of green manufacturing. Compared with traditional design, green design requires taking into account the environment factors and pollution prevention measures in the product design during the designing phase. The basis to build an evaluation system of green design based on life cycle is a combination and integration of data and knowledge of different phases in product life cycle. Hence, this paper builts a hierarchy structure model of green design under influence of many factors according to the frame of ISO 14000, determines the weight of each factor based on experts’ opinion, and makes a systematic evaluation on the performance of green design based on fuzzy hierarchy evaluation principle.

The widely used single assessment index such as energy consumption and main pollutants total emissions index can't comprehensively evaluation energy conservation and emission reduction. In this paper, a scientific comprehensive evaluation method of energy consumption based on the product life-cycle was proposed. This method fully consider industry characteristics at the same time, comprehensively use stratified fuzzy evaluation method. And the multi-objective colligation evaluation model and scientific evaluation system for energy saving and emission reduction oriented to industry characteristics was constructed. Finally, the empirical research was carried out take the heat treatment industry in Ningbo city as an example, and the result shows that this evaluation system is scientific and reasonable.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to review the green manufacturing and similar frameworks in order to trace the origin, definitions, scope, similarities, differences, and publications of these manufacturing frameworks. Design/methodology/approach – A review of 113 research articles is conducted for various terms, namely, green manufacturing (GM); environmentally conscious manufacturing; environmentally responsible manufacturing; environmentally benign manufacturing; sustainable manufacturing; clean manufacturing; cleaner production; sustainable production with reference to triple bottom line, product life cycle engineering, systems approach, resource and energy efficiency, supply chain, pollution prevention and closed loop system/6R. Findings – It can be said with reasonable confidence that all these eight frameworks have been used interchangeably by researchers but it requires some standardization. It has been observed during literature review that to standardize the terminology researchers have to clear emphatically in their research the use of various life cycle engineering approach; clarity on the end-of-life strategies used; clarity in use of various components of triple bottom line perspectives; inclusion of the whole supply chain and integration of environmental improvement strategies with the business strategy. Research limitations/implications – The literature reviewed for the study is the literature available online using Google scholar. Originality/value – This is one of the first known studies to review the GM and similar frameworks for their origin, definition, scope, similarities, and differences.

The green design of ceramic products in the era of information should pay attention to quality, lifetime and function of products, and should consider green design of product function, structure and material, component design as well as life cycle. This paper studied the green manufacturing during molding and firing, the green decorative and package design of ceramic products to improve the reclamation rate of production, disassembly and recycle in the life cycle for the decrease of environmental pollution due to wastes.

The increasing growth of human population together with the material consumption of most industrialised nations taking place at an unsustainable rate have been causing the degradation of the planet. The implementation of sustainable methodologies can contribute to the implementation of more ecological practices. A computational tool integrating ecodesign principles was developed to support sustainable decisions. This tool allows designers and clients to investigate and compare different solutions for each product, taking into account the whole product life cycle, as well to incorporate the product’s physical data with the CAD model. In this work a decision computational tool was used combined with the additive manufacturing study case. This system can contribute to a more sustainable manufacturing product development, facilitating the evaluation of the environmental impact analysis, optimization and comparison of the product life cycle.

Materials selection for green manufacturing is a complicated system engineering. Materials selection for green manufacturing is a sort of fire-new idea compared with traditional materials selection. The influence of materials to outer environment was studied. The method of materials selection for green manufacturing, integration of technical, economic and environmental principle was put forward. Its supporting technologies were researched that include database and knowledge base of green materials and environmental influence evaluation system based on green materials life cycle. The constraint conditions, model and process of multi-objective decision-making of materials selection for green manufacturing were built so as to provide theoretic and technical support for materials selection.
