  2. ENVIRONMENTALLY CONSCIOUS MANUFACTURING Environmentally conscious manufacturing (ECM) is a new way of thinking about manufacturing which focuses on the most efficient and productive use of raw materials and natural resources, and minimizes the adverse impacts on workers and the natural environment. In its most advanced form, a product's entire life cycle is considered, from design, raw material and natural resource use to end use and disposal.

  3. ELEMENTS OF ENVIRONMENTALLY CONSCIOUS MANUFACTURING STRATEGY The three Rs of environmentally conscious manufacturing are: Reduce Remanufacture Reuse/Recycle

  4. Reduction Reduction refers to efforts undertaken by manufacturing firms to minimize waste. The main emphasis in waste minimization is on source reduction. As defined by the Federal Pollution Prevention Act, this includes products, processes, and technologies that will reduce "in-process" waste streams as distinct from "end-of-pipe" waste.

  5. Remanufacturing Remanufacturing refers to the repair, rework, or refurbishment of components and equipment for either sale or internal use. The remanufacturing process basically includes the disassembly of components, inspection and testing of the remanufacturable components, incorporation of any new improvements, and reassembly of components with newer systems. The product is assembled, finished, tested, packaged, and distributed in the same manner as new products.

  6. Recycling and Reuse Most of the raw materials used in manufacturing can be recycled, although in many cases it may be difficult to pass on the costs associated with doing so. Solid waste materials such as paper, glass, plastics, and metals are abundant, with more and more being stored in landfills daily.

  7. More than 100 million tons of non-perishable waste are buried in landfills every year, with at least 78 million tons being made up of recyclable materials. This includes 50 million tons of paper, 12 million tons of glass, 11 million tons of plastics, and 5 million tons of aluminum. With mandatory recycling laws in many states, the availability of recyclable material is steadily increasing every year

  8. ECM Project Planning and Management The central role of the manufacturing function in enabling a company to gain competitive advantage in the marketplace is being increasingly recognized. Previously, manufacturing was viewed as a purely operational consideration in which planning was short-term and very focused. Instead, the manufacturing strategy of a firm should follow' from and be integrated with the overall business strategy to be an effective competitive weapon.

  9. GLOBAL ECM STRATEGIES ECM initiatives are neither entirely new nor confined to the United States. Environmentalism has emerged as a universal concern among the developed industrial countries. Even in the newly industrialized developing nations, there is growing awareness of the environmental costs of development.

  10. A number of European, Japanese, and other global efforts for ECM have been driven by governmental regulation with collaborative efforts by government and industry. Compliance and cooperation go hand in hand in these marketplaces. Considerable potential abounds for industrialized nations to learn from one another's environmental practices.
