Abstract

Basing on energy-related analysis, the article discusses the issues of creating integrated approaches to providing for environmental friendliness and safety of the technological processes of form-shaping and the methodology of quantitative evaluation of ecological effectiveness of these processes. Energy-related analysis allows to find the interrelations between energy efficiency and environmental friendliness of technological processes, to create a joint methodology for improving these indices by reducing energy losses and compensating the “underload” of electric motors of processing equipment. The established interrelations allowed to compose the integrated ecological quality index, making possible to estimate numerically the environmental friendliness and safety of technological processes for each particular implementation. As an example, the article presents the formation of a comprehensive criterion for environmentally justified selection of LCTA and systems for LCTA application as one of the possible approaches to detailing of environmental friendliness and safety of technological processes based on rational choice of LCTA.

Highlights

  • Basing on energy-related analysis, the article discusses the issues of creating integrated approaches to providing for environmental friendliness and safety of the technological processes of form-shaping and the methodology of quantitative evaluation of ecological effectiveness of these processes

  • Considering the special features of the implementation of technological processes, the issues of environmental friendliness and safety, of minimizing the impact on the environment and on humans are mainly solved by evaluating the individual components of this impact

  • The purpose of the work is the creation of a joint methodology for evaluation of environmental friendliness and safety of technological processes, first of all - of formshaping, for each particular implementation, considering all the diversity of the types of technological processes, modes and conditions of implementation, the diversity of equipment on which these processes are implemented

Summary

Problem definition

The problem of providing for environmental friendliness and safety of technological processes is the most important from the point of view of ensuring their quality indices and competitiveness [1]. Considering the special features of the implementation of technological processes, the issues of environmental friendliness and safety, of minimizing the impact on the environment and on humans are mainly solved by evaluating the individual components of this impact. It is important, and in many cases sufficient, to evaluate the comprehensive (integrated) impact without analyzing the individual components, such as vibration and noise, air pollutants, thermal pollutants, etc. From the point of view of the problem being solved, very important is the numerical evaluation of environmental friendliness and safety of technological processes This will allow to quantify these quality indices, and to outline the ways for reducing the impact of technological processes on the environment and improving their safety for humans
