Multi-Criteria Decision Making for Optimization of Product Development Under Green Manufacturing Environment

At present, increasing environmental awareness and stringent environmental regulations of the competent authority, the use of green manufacturing (GM) technique is an important topic for the present industries. To overcome the environmental issues, the manufacturing industries use various advanced manufacturing processes for optimal product development. The advance manufacturing process generates large amounts of toxic substances results in various environmental issues during the optimal product manufacturing. Minimization of environmental issues and the amount of waste generated are strongly depends on its process and response parameters. Thus, optimization of process parameters for GM is essential and is a multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) optimization problems. This chapter provides an overview of applications of some MCDM methods for optimization followed by detailed fundamental aspects of optimization issues in green manufacturing. The work proposed an integrated method consisting of AHP coupled with MOORA and validated through an experimental case study.
