2.83 / 2.813 Addresses
• Environmental issues– energy, carbon, toxics, materials use, …
Sustainability
• Uses Engineering Tools– Design, Manufacturing and Thermodynamics, and
develops new ones.. Life Cycle Analysis (LCA), Exergy Analysis, “ELSA”,…
• Interacts with other Disciplines– economics, chemistry, industrial ecology,
paleontology, climatology, …
3
Manufacturing
• Value Adding– Jobs, Value Creation, Standard of Living
• Long Reach– Design Decisions control material and energy
flows, Supple Chain, Services
• Shadow Side– Environmental Footprint
– “Excess” Consumption

If today is a typical day on planet
Earth,
We will lose: 116 square miles of rainforest72 square miles to encroaching deserts, 10 to 100 species. We will add:250,000 more people on this planet, 270,000 tons of nitrogen, and18,000,000 tons of carbon to the atmosphere.

Sustainable Development
"...development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs."
UN 1983, “Brundtland Report”

chairwomen of UN commission,“Our Common Future”

Essentially…
• This area of study is research
• Connecting our actions on a “small scale” to the actual impact on the planet is not at all trivial
• People want to now what is the right thing to do
• That is exactly what we will explore

• What is behind each of these problems?
12
Baloney Detection Kit• How reliable are the sources of this claim? Is there reason to believe that
they might have an agenda to pursue in this case?
• Have the claims been verified by other sources? What data are presented in support of this opinion?
• What position does the majority of the scientific community hold in this issue?
• How does this claim fit with what we know about how the world works? Is this a reasonable assertion or does it contradict established theories?
• Are the arguments balanced and logical? Have proponents of a particular position considered alternate points of view or only selected supportive evidence for their particular beliefs?
• What do you know about the sources of funding for a particular position? Are they financed by groups with partisan goals?
• Where was evidence for competing theories published? Has it undergone impartial peer review or it is only in proprietary publication?

Environmental ChallengesEnvironmental Concerns Linkage to Manufacturing Processes
1. Global climate change Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from direct and indirect energy use, land fill gases, etc.
2. Human organism damage Emission of toxins, carcinogens, etc. including use of heavy metals, acids, solvents, coal burning…
3. Water availability and quality Water usage and discharges e.g. cooling and cleaning use in particular
4. Depletion of fossil fuel resources Electricity and direct fossil fuel usage e.g. power and heating requirements, reducing agents
5. Loss of biodiversity Land use, water usage, acid deposition, thermal pollution
6. Stratospheric ozone depletion Emissions of CFCs, HCFCs, halons, nitrous oxides e.g. cooling requirements, refrigerants, cleaning methods, use of fluorine compounds
7. Land use patterns Land appropriated for mining, growing of bio-materials, manufacturing, waste disposal
8. Depletion of non-fossil fuel resources Materials usage and waste
9. Acid disposition Sulfur and NOx emissions from smelting and fossil fuels, acid
leaching and cleaning

Manufacturing
• The Big Pieces (energy and carbon) are: fuel production, chemicals, metals, cement, paper products, but..
• Products use fuel..
• Toxics
• Water, not so much,
• Materials, waste management
24
Manufacturing
• Significant, often hidden shadow side
• Significant regulations already do exist
• Interconnected with wealth generation
• Need incentives to be Green

The Big Issues
• Sustainability
• Energy and Carbon (GHGs)
• Scale of the problem
• How to partition the problem?
• How to know a strategy will work?
• This is not business as usual
33
Manufacturing & Sustainability
• Various interpretation of sustainability– Economics– Ecology– Thermodynamics
• Various goals of manufacturing– Growth– Minimization of costs
• Responsible manufacturing
34
Scales: From Process / Product to The Planet
•Please Do Your Ecological Footprint for Wed 2/11 http://www.footprintcalculator.org/
•Scale of the Analysis
•Scale of our Use
35
Carbon Intensity of World and US
• 24 Billion Metric Tons CO2
• 6 Billion People, ~4 Tons/person
• 5700 Million Metric Tons CO2
• 275 Million People, ~20 Tons/person

LCA Issues
• Assigning boundaries
• Assigning responsibility
• Aggregation of results
• Normalization
• Benchmarking for improvements
• Value Laden
41
Types of LCA
• LCI Vs LCA
• Streamlined
• Process
• Input/Output
• Hybrid
• Many other flavors, and softwares…
42
LCA Vs ELSA
• Environmental Life Style Analysis– No such thing as a “sustainable product”– There are however, products with
comparatively smaller impacts on the environment
– Reorients discussion to people not products– Other advantages and some disadvantages

We must improve our environmental performance ongoods and services by 5% a year just to stay even.
51
F=P(1+i)n
5.4%/yr
How hard is it to improveby 5% per year?
52
Examples of improvements
• Pig Iron (energy 1800–1984) 1.1%
• Aluminum (energy 1900–1987) 1.0%
• Air Travel (energy 1971–1997) 3.7%
• Nitrogen Fertilizer (energy 1930-1989) 4.4%
• Machine tools (time 1900-2000) 5.4%
• Moore’s Law (2x in 2 yrs) 41%
• Kyoto Protocol ~0.4%
53
Yes 5%/yr is possible, but…
• it will require incentives
• will 5% improvement in efficiency result is
a 5% reduction in scale?

The Gold Standard
60
Note that “e” and “P” are coupled!
•e = f (P) Increased production leads to increased efficiency through
learning effects and economies of scale
•P = f (e) Increased efficiency can lead to reduced prices and increased demand. The phenomenon is called the “rebound effect”

Engineering Strategies
source sink
recirculation
62
Engineering Strategies
1. Reduction at Sink• pollution prevention
2. Reduction at Source• substitution• efficiency
3. Recirculation• reuse, remfg, recycle
63
Goals for this Course
• Understanding
– the pieces (engineering)
– the big picture (more than engineering)
• Tools
– Life Cycle Analysis, Exergy Analysis,
Materials Flow Analysis, Economics….
64
Big Picture Solutions
• free market solutions ?– volunteer standards?– consumer choices?– make people richer?– charge for “externalities”– market failures e.g. eco-system services
• government intervention– ecological taxes– efficiency standards– cap and trade programs
65
For Next Time:
• Dr. Julian Allwood Seminar• Read papers by 1) Pacala and Socolow, and
article from 2) McKinsey for Monday • Reading on IPAT, Waggoner…• Find Readings, homeworks at:• http://web.mit.edu/2.813/www/
