Abstract
Life cycle engineering of new products and technologies must consider not just the single product and product life cycle, but also the foreseeable growth in market volume that results from increases in population and affluence, in order to allow the associated total environmental impact to be taken into account during the product development. The emphasis should not only be on eco-efficiency but also in eco-effectiveness. In the context, eco-effectiveness provides the target (e.g., 2050 targets), while ecoefficiency provides a progressive pathway to get there. The main aim of this special issue is to create a platform for researchers around the world in the area of Life Cycle Engineering and Sustainable Manufacturing for achieving net-zero targets and environmental sustainability.
