Abstract
This chapter firstly explores the mechanism of model coefficients, by decomposing the SEC model. Then, a clustered model for material removal processes are presented and discussed. The following section discusses the challenges of characterizing energy efficiency in industries, and proposes a modified methodology with a case study in a biomedical products and services company. The derived energy consumption information is also compared with current LCI database in order to improve its quality. Finally, the strategies for improving energy efficiency are proposed from different perspectives.
