Focus on Ecodesign

  • ISO 14’001/2004: indirect impacts (including products

and services)

  • ISO/TR 14’062: Integration Environmental Aspects in

Product development

  • Laws and regulations: for example WEEE and RoHS

(product concept), and especially EUP

  • ….

Focus more on products & services

Ecodesign Process

  • 1. Product specific analysis and environmental-oriented

evaluation; that would mean: environmental-oriented strength & weaknesses; environmental-oriented SWOT

  • 2. Effective environmental-oriented strategies and

successful improvement measures (design tasks)

  • 3. Efficient product improvement process
  • 4. Integration in planning process

Environmental Evaluation

  • Environmental effects:

Environmental impacts environmental problems:

  • ressources, polution, distruction
  • local, regional, global

using eco-inventories (for example: ecoinvent.ch)

  • Environmental-oriented indicators:

using indicators, for example

  • cost-profile, mass-profile
  • energy-profile
  • profile of environmental harmful substancies

12 Steps

Reference model:

  • Environmental analysis:

Step 1 – Step 4

  • Search for measures:

Step 5 and Step 6

  • Implementation:

Step 7 – Step 11

  • Communication:

Step 12

(Springer 2004)

slide-44
SLIDE 44

Swiss Institute for Systems Engineering Rainer Züst

Step 1 – Step 4

Step 1: What product(-system) has to be redesigned? (product model, based on environmental parameter) Step 2: What are the stakeholder requirements? What is expected from the product? (E-QFD, based on environmental parameters) Step 3: Which are the environmental-oriented strength and weaknesses compared with competitors products? (E-BM, based on environmental parameters) Step 4: What are the significant environmental aspects of the product throughout its entire life cycle? ( environmental aspects)

slide-45
SLIDE 45

Swiss Institute for Systems Engineering Rainer Züst

Step 5 and Step 6

Step 5: How to combine stakeholder’s requirements and significant aspects into improvement strategies (selection of strategies by using ECODESIGN PILOT (or ECODESIGN assistant)) Step 6: Which ECODESIGN guidelines should be implemented in the product (selection of measures by using the checklists from ECODESIGN PILOT)

slide-46
SLIDE 46

Step 7 – Step 12

Step 7: What are the product specifications to start with? Step 8: How to modify the functional structure of the product? Step 9: How to generate new ideas for the functions of the product? Step 10: How to generate and select the best product concept variants? Step 11: How does the improved product look like? Step 12: How to communicate the environmental improvements

  • f the product to the market?
