4 Manufacturing Sector Background Tens to hundreds of thousands of manufacturing plants (known as transformational steps because these convert materials and chemicals into macro-shape products) Output of families of products (simple to complex) Stakeholder expectations Company has invested in a life cycle understanding of their products Can provide some form of quantitative environmental footprint of their products The unit process life cycle inventory (UPLCI) concept has been developed to meet these large global needs of manufacturers and stakeholders UPLCI is a building block concept to estimate energy and material use at the machine level of a manufacturing plant For most manufacturing facilities transforming materials or chemicals into industrial or consumer products there are about 120 separate unit processes that are used 4

7 Methodology for Systematic Analysis and Improvement of Manufacturing Unit Process Life Cycle Inventory Functional Unit: Quantifies the qualitative and quantitative aspects of the (main) function(s) of the manufacturing unit process along the questions what, how much, how well, and for how long Reference Flow: 1 second of processing time for a specified load level of a unit manufacturing process for a specified material based on a working scheme of 2000 hours/year. The system boundaries include the actual machining modes, as well as the allocated part of the non-productive modes. Guidance for new ISO standard (Environmental evaluation of machine tools) 7

21 Unit Process Life Cycle Inventories 4. Experiences with screening UPLCI studies Prof. Michael Overcash 21

22 Screening UPLCI: Experiences and Future Research Manufacturing as Transformational Stages Chemical and material building with transformations to macro shapes 22

23 Screening UPLCI: Examples of the information demand government (GSA, 2010) customers (Wal-Mart, 2011) business-to-business participants (Environmental Product Declarations, UL, 2011) product associations (NSF/ANSI, 2009) 23

24 Screening UPLCI: Goals uplci blocks that are non-complex and transparent. a fully populated 120 unit process database. a rapid means of evaluating and supporting decisions for energy improvement of advanced materials, processes, and technology in macroshape building industry. add material efficiency, with science-based methods that show direct energy benefits over the whole supply chain, an important innovation. 24

25 Material Supply Chains look like this: PET Ethylene glycol Ethylene oxide Ethylene Naphtha Crude Oil Oxygen Air (untreated) Water for rxn Water (untreated) p-benzenedicarboxylic acid Acetic acid Carbon monoxide Carbon dioxide Natural gas Natural gas (unprocessed) Nitrogen from air Air (untreated) Oxygen from air Air (untreated) Water for rxn Water (untreated) Natural gas Natural gas (unprocessed) Water for rxn Water (untreated) Methanol Natural gas Natural gas (unprocessed) Water for rxn Water (untreated) Oxygen from air Air (untreated) p-xylene Toluene Naphtha Crude Oil

27 Screening UPLCI: Creating UPLCI building blocks High production system basis. 90:10 rule is critical. All unit process blocks need reasonably close similarity in order to construct higher order manufacturing systems LEGO Principle. Generic UPLCI data build from a common framework for each unit process. Connect transformation LCI to supply chain LCI. Allocation is an infrequent issue for these transformational plants. 27

29 Screening UPLCI: Current Status UplcI Identification MR1 MR2 MR3 MR4 MR5 MR6 MR7 MR8 J1 J2 J3 MC1 MC2 HT1 SF1 Drilling Shearing Milling Turning Punching Reaming Grinding Boring Gas metal arc welding Submerged arc welding Friction stir welding Brakeforming Injection molding annealing Coolant application 29

30 Screening UPLCI: Lessons Learned 1) The results are just estimates that are representative (90:10 rule is simple, but hard to transition) 2) A knowledgeable person can create a uplci in about 1-2 weeks of concentrated work 3) Partial and standby time components of the 7 matrix are first riority 4) Transparency is a major benefit in use by others as it establishes what was assumed and how used 30

31 Screening UPLCI Path Forward 31

32 Building from UPLCI database Overhead (HVAC and Lighting) for Building Casting Spray Painting Inspection Rahimifard, 2010 integrating process and non-process energies each unit process has an machine area footprint 32

33 Building from UPLCI database Five plant studies, 25 machines For each machine obtain area then use regression to get full allocated area 33

34 Research in connecting UPLCIs Each unit process changes the properties of the workpiece that affect the cumulative energy shape mass surface properties Each block is energy and mass loss per unit of unit process output (so for each step there is a basis change) This concept of connection is a major part of a user interface 34

35 Natural Resource Energy, MJ/output workpiece Life cycle energy profile of transformations by unit processes to make a product CTG Level 35

36 Test Bed Research The behavior of 3-10 unit processes in sequence or recycle loops is more than the characteristic of the single UPLCI Studies of aggregate and individual UPLCI field data (energy and mass utilization) test the system behavior Known as verification and improvement 36

37 Longer term UPLCI research for transformation manufacturing plants or corporate developments Alternative manufacturing plant sequences Process and non-process energy estimations Coupling with materials and chemicals supply chain User interfaces Integrating with use and end-of-life phases (impact of recycling and reuse) Simulation Optimization Comparative analysis of new technology 37
