The goal of this research study is to begin to identify environmental impacts of operational decisions of the production enterprise and relate those impacts across time and physical scales to decisions made at the sub-cellular level and decisions made at the supply chain level. This will address the often-missed operational characteristics of the system under study in Environmentally Benign Design and Manufacturing. The gap has been cause in some cases due to over simplification of assumptions stemming from too broad or too narrow definitions of what is termed the EBDM "system". The long term goal of the research is to determine the mechanism for integrating the environmental impacts of operational decisions made across and between the levels of the manufacturing enterprise. This investigation takes the first step in order to lead to a better understanding, and identification of, the operational level factors that have potential for positive and adverse environmental impact. The broader impacts include enabling the first green manufacturing effort in Kansas through EBDM activities at the local and regional level. The focus on the manufacturing supply chain can be broadly applied beyond this regional scope, once the preliminary understanding of the environmental performance and operational characteristics are better understood.

本研究的目标是开始，以确定生产企业的经营决策的环境影响，并与这些影响跨时间和物理尺度的决定，在亚细胞水平和决策在供应链水平。这将解决在环境友好型设计和制造中研究的系统经常错过的操作特性。差距的原因是在某些情况下，由于过于简化的假设所产生的过于广泛或过于狭窄的定义什么是所谓的EBDM“系统”。本研究的长期目标是确定一种机制，用于整合制造企业各级之间的运营决策对环境的影响。该调查迈出了第一步，以便更好地了解和识别可能对环境产生积极和不利影响的操作层面因素。更广泛的影响包括通过地方和区域层面的EBDM活动，在堪萨斯实现了第一个绿色制造业。一旦对环境绩效和运营特征有了更好的理解，对制造业供应链的关注可以广泛应用于这一区域范围之外。
