Year 2019

Abstract Industrial production as we know it is rapidly changing. Over the years, various technological advances have led to breakthrough and brought about new inventions and development of sophisticated equipment, the result of which is due to intensive research and development. The revolution and evolution of products, processes, and resources, and sustainable requirement to mitigate climatic anomaly beams on the industrial sector for change. Worldwide postulation of the increasing population figure beyond 8 billion in a few decades will lead to higher demand for finished goods. Thus, pressure manufacturing companies to become more energy intensive. Consequently, task companies to reduce/eliminate production of non-environmentally friendly pollutant. Global call for innovation in technological development and strategies to deliver future products and services offered by companies now look to explore sustainability concepts within the scope of conservative practices, and efficient and effective performances. The manufacturing sector must identify ways to ensure optimal utilization of materials and improve their operational processes through sustainable means. This research paper is an exploratory study which evaluates explicitly, the role of energy conservation strategies; alternative durable materials, waste recovery, resilient designs and integration of emerging technologies, in the manufacturing sector to drive sustainability. The authors consider the interplay of Energy Trilemma requirements within manufacturing operations and industry techniques for energy savings, climate change abatement, and overall sustainable development. It is likely that the manufacturing industry of the future will become autonomous, fully embrace the green initiative practices and optimize resources utilization while consuming less energy.
