Abstract: Manufacturing accounts for a significant portion of energy expenditure. Thus, energy efficient and environmentally friendly (EEEF) manufacturing practices are of significant importance. Sustainability plays a key role to manufacturing, becoming a major factor for manufacturers to be competitive in the global market. It would not only be important to the energy and environmental sectors, but also be substantially beneficial to society and economy. Sustainable manufacturing covers a broad spectrum of manufacturing, including both implementation of advanced manufacturing technology and developing energy-efficient manufacturing systems, as well as extension of product life cycle. Automation, as a vital factor to the success of sustainable manufacturing, plays a critical role. In recent years, it has attracted substantial effort from researchers in both academia and industry to provide efficient scientific and engineering solutions for sustainable manufacturing. This edited book of Sustainable Production Automation presents the recent development of innovative algorithms, models, heuristics, and techniques for production control and operation management in the area of sustainable manufacturing systems. In addition to overviews of recent development in sustainable manufacturing technology and practices, optimization and control methodologies for energy efficient manufacturing are the focuses in this volume. Remanufacturing system modeling and analysis, which are key elements for product life cycle, are also studied. We expect this volume can stimulate more original, significant, visionary, and in-depth research in sustainable production automation, to improve process, efficiency, productivity, quality, and reliability in manufacturing.

Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Sustainable production automation, as an effective way to enable and expedite transitions to sustainability and enhance resource utilizations, attracts substantial efforts from researchers in both academy and industry. This book presents the recent development of innovative algorithms, models, heuristics, hardware and software in broad areas of sustainable production systems. It focuses on design, analysis and management of the processes involved in the product life cycle (from design to delivery to return) to have the minimal negative impacts on society (including environmental, economic and social). The contributors are experts from both universities and industrial research centers.

Includes bibliographical references and index.
