Green issues in product development

本研究项目的目的是为有意尽量减少产品对环境影响的管理人员提供一些背景资料。在产品生命周期的每个阶段，投入（原材料和能源）和产出（排放）通过消耗自然资源和污染空气、土壤和/或水来影响环境。可回收产品环境是具有环保意识的系统，其中产品从最终用户处返回以重新使用。生态设计意味着最小化产品对环境的影响，同时保持相同的质量水平。有必要考虑产品的生命周期。生态设计应被视为一种创新因素，鼓励商业企业将环境因素纳入其商业发展战略。重点介绍了日本汽车工业环境技术的发展情况。因此，在全球公司中，技术和产品开发尚未进行的现状也变得清晰起来。美国和巴西正在研究乙醇。另一方面，柴油车在欧洲是更好的。在日本，混合动力汽车是一种战略汽车。许多汽车公司以蜘蛛网式的方式与其他公司合作。这种蛛网式的合作清楚地表明，市场是不透明的。

The aim of this research projects is to provide some background information for management interested in minimizing the environmental impacts of products. At each stage of the product life cycle, inputs (raw materials and energies) and outputs (emissions) impact the environment by depleting natural resources and by polluting the air, soil and/or water. Recoverable product environments are environmentally conscious systems where products are returned from end-users to be re-used.Eco-design means minimizing the environmental impact of a product while maintaining the same level of quality. It is necessary to consider the life cycle of the product. Eco-design should be viewed as a factor of innovation that encourages business enterprises to be build the environmental component into their business development strategy.Especially development of the environmental technology development in the auto industry of Japan was examined. As a result, the present condition that development of technology and a product had not been performed became clear also in the global company. Ethanol is studied in the United States or Brazil. On the other hand, a diesel car is superior in Europe. In Japan, the hybrid car is a strategic car. Many automobile companies from the cobweb type collaboration among other companies. This cobweb type collaboration showed clearly that a market is opaque.
