Green Engineering Flashcards
utilizes processes and methods that minimize pollution, improve a business sustainability and decrease the potential for health issues caused by unsafe manufacturing design methods.
Green Engineering
Many commercial processes, such as manufacturing and shipping products, may waste energy through inefficient manufacturing and delivery methods.
Waste reduction
green engineering seeks ways to minimize these waste, including finding new fuel methods and minimizing unnecessary production steps that needlessly use energy.
Waste reduction
Entails finding better and safer materials for diverse engineering purposes, particularly in product design and manufacturing.
Materials management
Engineers may identify new and safer materials or invent options to integrate into their plans and find better and more efficient production methods.
Materials management
Focuses on identifying a company’s pollution sources and minimizing their waste.
Pollution prevention
Engineers may identify why pollution occurs, find processing methods that decrease it spread, integrate new and cleaner techniques and enhance manufacturing and delivery cleanliness.
Pollution prevention
Green seek to improve the products or services while making them safer for the environment. This process may include finding alternate energy sources that work better than traditional options or identifying greener and more efficient manufacturing materials and methods
Product enhancement
Green engineers may use system analysis and environmental impact assessment tools when designing products. This tools helps identify how these changes affect a community and its environment before implementation.
Holistic product creation
All green engineering techniques strive to protect human health and well-being. This principle may include identifying safer manufacturing methods and chemicals that don’t affect human health.
Protecting human health
The word contains limited natural resources and green engineers try to minimize their waste. they may focus on sustainable and long-lasting products and recyclable materials to help.
Minimize natural resource depletion
Cultures and different regions may respond to green engineering changes in various ways. engineer’s work to consider this belief and integrate solutions that work for as many groups as possible.
Remain culture-centered
Engineering often includes taking known products and methods and improving them. Green engineers, following this concept, may take already successful processes and improve them.
Innovate and improve existing concepts
Green may focus on preventing problems before they occur rather than solving them after they arise. When problems occur, green engineer’s can find active and beneficial solutions.
Prevent problems first
Many proffesionals throw away products after minimal use, which may cause unnecessary waste. Green engineers work to prevent the problem by creating renewable and long-lasting products.
Renew rather than deplete
