This book outlines the process of sustainable product design and
development. It presents design guidelines that help prolong the
life of a product and minimize its environmental impact. These
guidelines specifically enable product design for end-of-life (EoL)
objectives such as reuse, recycling and remanufacturing.
Sustainable Product Design and Development also presents
mathematical models that will help the designer determine the cost
of designing sustainable products. This cost can be computed early
during the design stage of a product. Sustainable Product Design
and Development presents different ways and means by which a
product can address all three pillars of
sustainability-environmental conservation, social sustainability,
and economic sustainability. Various case studies are incorporated
in different chapters. Case studies on designing products for
assembly, disassembly and remanufacturing have been presented in
their respective chapters. The book also provides an overview of
global environmental legislation to help the reader grasp the
importance of waste management and sustainable product design. This
book is aimed at professionals, engineering students, environmental
scientists, and those in the business environment.
