In this study, we suggest a environmentally-conscious and dry cleaning process mechanism for the more useful recycling of end-of-life CRT, and also develop a prototype cleaning system to verify the faulty of the designed mechanism. This system accommodates the specifications of 14∼32" end-of-life CRT. In experimental result, it is expected that the developed system improve the productivity up to 10% and decrease the loss rate of cleaning glass 3∼4 times than the glass blasting methods.

The objective of ECMS(Environmentally Conscious Manufacturing Systems) is to consider environmental effects through the entire product life cycle from product development stage to design, manufacturing, supplying, using and disposing stage. Recently, environment-oriented recycling, reusing and manufacturing technologies have been researched actively in every engineering fields. In the field of chemical engineering, HHS (Health Hazard Scores) which classifies and analyzes hazardous materials in production processes has been presented. Metal cutting processes also have a lot of harmful factors, and especially hazardous components in cutting fluids have been known to have a bad effect on workers and working area. However, research works such as HHS have been little accomplished in metal cutting processes. In this research, a environmentally conscious machining process is presented by classifying hazardous components in cutting fluids, by using LCA(Life Cycle Assessments) and HHS method, and by evaluating environmental effects from cutting fluids.

This paper presents the experimental results to verify the environmental consciousness with economic balances due to cutting fluid behaviors, effectiveness in machining process. Even though cutting fluid improves the Productivity through the cooling, lubricating effects, its environmental impact is also increased according to the cutting fluid usage. The primary mechanism considered in this study is the spin-off motion of fluids away from rotating workpiece. In this study some parameters arc adopted to analyze the productivity(tool wear), environmental impact(mist diffusion rate). The results present talc criteria for the resonable cutting fluid usage quantitative1y to develop the environmentally conscious machining process.

The purposes of using cutting fluid during cutting have been cooling, lubricating, chip washing and anti-corroding. However, the present manufacturing industry restricts the use of cutting fluid because cutting fluid contains poisonous substances which are harmful to the human body. Therefore environmentally conscious machining and technology have more important position in machining process because cutting fluids have significant influence on the environment in milling process. In this study, environmentally conscious machining can be obtained by the way of selecting the optimum machinig conditon using the design of experiment. Cutting using oil-mist showed better cutting characteristics than dry, air and fluid cutting with respect to by cutting force, tool wear and surface roughness. Also, the optimum machining condition for cutting using oil-mist could be selected through Taguchi method.

This paper presents a methodology to analyze the cutting fluid effectiveness in mechanical and thermal terms simultaneously using finite element method and experimental work. Cutting fluid plays many roles in metal cutting process. Mechanically-thermally coupled effectiveness of cutting fluids affect to friction coefficient at tool-workpiece interface and cutting temperature and chip control, surface finish, tool wear and form accuracy. Through this study, it can be explained that the critical behavior of cutting fluids will be able to apply optimal environmentally conscious machining process.

Development of Environmentally conscious products in the electrical appliance industry is necessary not only for environmental law and green consumer but also for competitiveness by cost reduction. In this paper the current trends of evaluation tools are described. And practices in the development of environmentally conscious products are explained and improvement cases are presented by ways of design guides. The paper concludes with suggested future tasks which will need to be addressed in order that product designers can utilize the said tools effectively.

This paper, reviews the characteristics of green consumers through a Focus Group Interview (FGI) method. This study shows that some remarkable changes are taking place in the lifestyles of green consumers compared with the past lifestyles of green consumers. Second, this study shows that green consumers have the correct green opinions about present environmental problems and they have a critical environmentally conscious attitude on this issue. Third, the research shows that green consumers behave environmentally (buying, use, and disposal acts) based on individual and personal standards. This study suggests (based on the research findings) methods to solve environmental problems to the government, corporations, and consumers as well as ways to increase the number of environmentally conscious consumers.
