In smart manufacturing, there is a trend to incorporate different kinds of new-generation information technologies into process- safety analysis. At present, green manufacturing is facing major obstacles related to safety management, due to the usage of large amounts of hazardous chemicals, resulting in spatial inhomogeneity of chemical industrial processes and increasingly stringent safety and environmental regulations. Emerging informa- tion technologies such as arti cial intelligence (AI) are quite promising as a means of overcoming these dif culties. Based on state-of-the-art AI methods and the complex safety relations in the process industry, we identify and discuss several technical challenges associated with process safety: ① knowledge acquisition with scarce labels for process safety;② knowledge-based reasoning for process safety;③ accurate fusion of heterogeneous data from various sources;and ④ effective learning for dynamic risk assessment and aided decision-making. Current and future works are also discussed in this context.展开更多

In order to reap such benefits, green manufacturing is involved in every aspect of manufacturing proc esses. During the machining process, cutting fluid is one of the main roots of e nvironmental pollution. And how to make an optimal selection for cutting fluid f or GM is an important path to reduce the environmental pollution. The objective factors of decision-making problems in the traditional selection of cutting flu id are usually two: quality and cost. But from the viewpoint of GM, environmenta l impact (E) should be considered together. In this paper, a multi-object d ecision-making model of cutting fluid selection for GM is put forward, in which the objects of Quality (Q), Cost(C) and Environmental impact (E) are considered together. In this model, E means to minimize the environmental impact, Q means to maximize the quality and C means to minimize the cost. Each objective is anal yzed in detail too. A case study on a decision-making problem of cutting fluid selection in a gear hobbing process is analyzed, and the result shows the model is practical.展开更多

Unlike metals, sand mould is a heterogeneous discrete deposition material. There is still a lack of theoretical research on the cutting force. In order to realize the prediction and control of the cut?ting force in the sand mould milling process, an analytical model of cutting force is proposed based on the unequal division shear zone model of orthogonal cutting. The deformation velocity relations of the chip within the orthogonal cutting shear zone are analyzed first. According to the flow behavior of granular, the unequal division shear zone model of sand mould is presented, in which the governing equations of shear strain rate, strain and velocity are estab?lished. The constitutive relationship of quasi?solid–liquid transition is introduced to build the 2D constitutive equation and deduce the cutting stress in the mould shear zone. According to the cutting geometric relations of up milling with straight cutting edge and the transformation relationship between cutting stress and cutting force, the dynamic cutting forces are predicted for di erent milling conditions. Compared with the experimental results, the predicted results show good agreement, indicating that the predictive model of cutting force in milling sand mould is validated. Therefore, the proposed model can provide the theoretical guidance for cutting force control in high e ciency mill?ing sand mould.展开更多

The existing research of reducing energy consumption and environmental impacts of machining processes greatly focuses on design and planning activities, but is reasonably sparse for production operation activities. This paper explores a systematic methodology that incorporates energy consumption and environmental impact considerations into the production operation of machining processes. Firstly, the framework of the methodology is proposed to establish the generic procedures for integrating the above considerations in production operation activities. As the two key issues of the framework, the profile index value matrix is determined by valuing the individual quantity of energy consumption and environmental impacts of machining each job on each machine, and the multi-criteria models are constructed by the operational methods. Furthermore, with the guideline of the framework, the specific formulations are modeled by two sub-models for the parallel machine scheduling problem, in which makespan and energy consumption are the optimizing objectives as well as the constraints of environmental impact considerations. The specific formulations provide a practical method to integrate energy consumption and environmental impact considerations into the scheduling activity, and also can serve as a reference to other activities in the production operation. The case study for a batch of jobs, including seven kinds of gears in the machining shop floor, is presented to demonstrate the application of the specific formulations of the methodology. The proposed methodology provides potential opportunities for reducing energy consumption and environmental impacts in machining processes, and helps production managers in decision-making on the issues of energy consumption and environmental impacts in the production operation.展开更多

Many uncertain factors and high risk are inherent in the implementation of new green manufacturing methods. Because of the shortage of successful examples and complete and certain knowledge, decision-making methods using probabilities to represent risk, which need many examples, cannot be used to evaluate risk in the implementation of green manufacturing projects. Therefore, a fuzzy multiple attribute decision-making (FMADM) method was developed with a three-level hierarchical decision-making model to evaluate the aggregate risk for green manufacturing projects. A case study shows that the hierarchical decision-making model of the aggregate risk and the FMADM method effectively reflect the characteristics of the risk in green manufacturing projects.展开更多

The product function, technical performance, greenness and economy of the remanufacturing products are no worse than those of the new products. The cost of remanufacturing products is only about 50% of new products. Remanufacturing can save energy 60%, and material 70%, so the adverse impact on the environment is significantly reduced. At present,China's remanufacturing industry is developing rapidly,and the manufacturing pilot has been in full swing.Meanwhile, the policies and regulations, basic theory,key technology, and industry standards of remanufacturing have been continuously innovated and completed.展开更多

Furthermore, with the guideline of the framework, the specific formulations are modeled by two sub-models for the parallel machine scheduling problem, in which makespan and energy consumption are the optimizing objectives as well as the constraints of environmental impact considerations. The specific formulations provide a practical method to integrate energy consumption and environmental impact considerations into the scheduling activity, and also can serve as a reference to other activities in the production operation. The case study for a batch of jobs, including seven kinds of gears in the machining shop floor, is presented to demonstrate the application of the specific formulations of the methodology. The proposed methodology provides potential opportunities for reducing energy consumption and environmental impacts in machining processes, and helps production managers in decision-making on the issues of energy consumption and environmental impacts in the production operation.
文摘Lean manufacturing is often seen as a set of tools that reduce the total cost and improve the quality of manufactured products.The lean management philosophy is one which targets waste reduction in every facet of the manufacturing business;however,only recently have studies linked lean management philosophies with improving environmental sustainability.These studies suggest that lean manufacturing is more than a set of lean tools that can optimize manufacturing efficiencies;it is a process and mindset that needs to be integrated into daily manufacturing systems to achieve sustainability.The foundry industry,as well as manufacturing in general,has significant challenges in the current regulatory and political climate with developing an economically and environmentally sustainable business model.Lean manufacturing has proven itself as a model for both economic sustainability and environmental stewardship.Several recent studies have shown that both lean and green techniques and "zero-waste" policies also lead to reductions in overall cost.While these strategies have been examined for general manufacturing,they have not been investigated in detail for the foundry industry.This paper will review the current literature and describe how lean and green can provide a relevant framework for environmentally and economically sustainable foundries.Examples of lean and green technologies and techniques which can be applied to foundries in a global context will be described.
文摘Noise reduction in a shop floor is one of the important parts of greenmanufacturing. In a shop floor machine tools are the main noise sources in a shop floor. A newapproach is discovered by investigation that the noise can be obviously reduced in a shop floor byoptimizing the scheduling between work pieces and machine tools. Based on the discovery, a newmethod of noise reduction is proposed. A noise reduction scheduling model in a shop floor isestablished, and the application of the model is also discussed. A case is studied, which shows thatthe method and model are practical.

文摘Fine dust particles (diameter is less than 2.5 μm) generated during machining processes,especially dry cutting,are harmful to operators,because they remain suspended in the air for long time and have marked concentration gradients in workshop.Hence studies about cutting dust source states and indoor air quality prediction have been developed.However,few researches focus on the distribution state of the cutting dust,dynamic status of fine dust particles,and environment estimating of the machining workshop.The machining workshops have diversified architectural structures,complex working conditions,so the dust emission is sensitive dynamic.According to these features,after analysis of the static and dynamic influence factors,this paper proposes a method and establishes a model to estimate the fine dust particles distribution based on COwZ (COMIS (conjunction of multizone infiltration specialists) with sub-zones) model when only dry cutting is processed just needing various working parameters.And two key technologies are discussed:the description of the machine tools using sub-zones of COwZ model considering the local obstacle effects of machine tools themselves;description and implementation of dynamic process of cutting dust emission with a new concept of equivalent source strengths.At last,multi-point experiments in a hybrid ventilation machining workshop prove the method is practical.Good agreement was observed between the estimation results and the experimental measurements for the investigated conditions.The proposed method can supply reference data for green manufacturing.

文摘A novel polysaccharide-bonded abrasive tool is proposed for the green machining of single-crystal sapphires.The prescription and manufacturing process of the proposed tool is designed,and the gelation property of polysaccharide by microwave treatment is investigated.Abrasive tool samples are fabricated,and a machining experiment on a single-crystal sapphire is performed.It is found that the crystallinity of polysaccharide gel decreases as the proportion of cross-linked polysaccharide increases.Abrasive tool samples with cross-linked polysaccharide present higher surface hardness.With the new abrasive tool,the surface quality of sapphire wafer can be significantly improved.This new tool with an abrasive to binder ratio of 2∶1 attains a material removal rate of 0.68μm/min.It is found that increasing the abrasive to binder ratio leads to better self-dressing performance but worse material removal ability and greater loss of abrasive tool materials.The validity of polysaccharide as an abrasive tool binder is preliminarily verified.
文摘Surfactants are important chemical products,serving as emulsifiers and interfacial modifiers in the household detergents,personal care products,paints and coatings,foods,cosmetics,and pharmaceuticals industries.This review focuses upon recent advances in research and development to improve the ecological sustainability of surfactants throughout their life cycle,including derivation from renewable resources,production using green manufacturing principles,and improved biocompatibility and biodegradability during their consumer use and disposal stages.Biobased surfactants,derived from vegetable oils,polysaccharides,proteins,phospholipids,and other renewable resources,currently comprise approximately 24%of the surfactant market,and this percentage is expected to increase,especially in Asia.The use of renewables is attractive to consumers because of reduced production of CO2,a greenhouse gas associated with climate change.Enzymes can greatly increase process sustainability,through reduced use of organic solvent,water,and energy,and reduced formation of by-products and waste products.Among the enzymes being investigated for surfactant synthesis,lipases are the most robust,due to their relatively high biocatalytic activity,operational stability and their ability to form or cleave ester,amide,and thioester bonds.For enzymes to be robust catalysts of surfactants,further research and development is needed to improve catalytic productivity,stability and reduce their purchase cost.

文摘Industrial risk and the diversification of risk types both increase with industrial development. Many uncertain factors and high risk are inherent in the implementation of new green manufacturing methods. Because of the shortage of successful examples and complete and certain knowledge, decision-making methods using probabilities to represent risk, which need many examples, cannot be used to evaluate risk in the implementation of green manufacturing projects. Therefore, a fuzzy multiple attribute decision-making (FMADM) method was developed with a three-level hierarchical decision-making model to evaluate the aggregate risk for green manufacturing projects. A case study shows that the hierarchical decision-making model of the aggregate risk and the FMADM method effectively reflect the characteristics of the risk in green manufacturing projects.
文摘Made in China 2025 proposes that "develop the remanufacturing industry vigorously, implement highend remanufacturing, smart remanufacturing, and inservice remanufacturing, advance the identification of remanufacturing products, and promote sustainable and healthy development of the manufacturing industry".Remanufacturing is an extension of the manufacturing industry chain, and it is an important part of advanced manufacturing and green manufacturing. The product function, technical performance, greenness and economy of the remanufacturing products are no worse than those of the new products. The cost of remanufacturing products is only about 50% of new products. Remanufacturing can save energy 60%, and material 70%, so the adverse impact on the environment is significantly reduced. At present,China's remanufacturing industry is developing rapidly,and the manufacturing pilot has been in full swing.Meanwhile, the policies and regulations, basic theory,key technology, and industry standards of remanufacturing have been continuously innovated and completed.
