Environmental planning and control system for industrial logistic networks

Obiettivo

Tackling the international problem of industrial pollution has become one of the biggest tasks of the ending millennium. In this context, the much discussed 'end-of-the-pipe' technologies move the problem to the end of the life-cycle of a product or to the end of the production process, without causing lasting alterations. In addition, the isolated focus on a company's production processes creates sub-optima which do not permit to profit from the potentials of the co-ordination of inter-company processes. It is therefore necessary to establish production integrated environmental protection of the whole logistical chain, though this will lead to a new dimension of complexity for the manufacturing industry. It is the aim of EPSILON to develop a software toolset which will facilitate the design and control of production systems within industrial logistic networks under environmental goals and constraints.

The aim of the EU Eco-Audit or the upcoming ISO14000 is to certify that a company is continually improving its eco-policy and is defining quantifiable environmental targets. To make these objectives applicable for the persons responsible for the production and product design, the user companies of the EPSILON consortium aim to produce a tool which will,
- Support the reduction of waste and pollution and reduce the environmental impact by supporting the design and controlling of inter-company material flow and the production processes themselves and in relation to their specific environmental impact under economic constraints;
- Provide on-line feedback of the environmental behaviour of the logistical processes according to the environmental targets;
- Monitor the environmental performance and initial environmental burden of products and processes both over the whole supply-chain and the production process;
- Allocate to products and processes the environmental burden according to their specific 'history'.
EPSILON will produce a logistics process model which allows the integration of environmental and economic aspects and develop an easy-to-use and adaptable environmental planning, control and simulation system for industrial logistic networks. It will establish environmental oriented feedback mechanisms between the planned performance of inter-company logistics processes and create feedback mechanisms as input for the product design. In addition it will provide comparative figures for the quantification of the environmental 'rucksack' of products and provide an open interface between this tool and existing production management systems.
