Abstract
Achieving sustainability in manufacturing requires a holistic view spanning not just the product, and the manufacturing processes involved in its fabrication, but also the entire supply chain, including the manufacturing systems across multiple product life-cycles. This requires improved models, metrics for sustainability evaluation, and optimization techniques at the product, process, and system levels. This paper presents an overview of recent trends and new concepts in the development of sustainable products, processes and systems. In particular, recent trends in developing improved sustainability scoring methods for products and processes, and predictive models and optimization techniques for sustainable manufacturing processes, focusing on dry, near-dry and cryogenic machining as examples, are presented.

Evaluating the environmental impacts of recycling wind turbines

TL;DR: In this article, the decommissioning and recycling process of wind turbines is analyzed, with special considerations given to the environmental aspects of a theoretical 100% recyclability scenario, and the results show that established recycling methods are present for most of the materials and that recycling of a 60 MW wind park at end of service life provides environmental benefits as well as lowering the natural resource use and securing resources for use in the future.

A total life cycle cost model (TLCCM) for the circular economy and its application to post-recovery resource allocation

TL;DR: In this article, a framework for a total life cycle cost model (TLCCM) is presented that aims to aid stakeholders in making decisions regarding all aspects of the product life cycle, and an application is explored that uses the model to determine post-recovery resource allocation into three closed-loop streams (Recycling, Remanufacturing and Reusing).
