Abstract
With the proposed methodology in Sect. “Methodology of eco-efficiency evaluation for unit process”, this chapter further characterizes the manufacturing processes in terms of their eco-efficiency. The characterization starts with processes where the main energy and resource consumption is only electricity, such as turning, milling, and injection molding. Then, a grinding case is presented to demonstrate and validate the proposed methodology for a more complicated case.
