Development of Waste Reduction in manufacturing Industry

IndM4250Project ManagementGraduate Research PaperByYasaswi BobbaMS in TechnologySpring 2015University of Central MissouriABSTRACTAt present situation, waste reduction has become a universal phenomenon. Municipal waste was decomposed in three different forms. According to the year 2004 it was projected that 71% is land filled, 16% incinerated and 13% recycled. Other types of wastes are from the nuclear and hazardous wastes. In this paper we are discussing about the basic ideas of waste reduction and the advantages and disadvantages of the waste reduction. Waste reduction is enhanced by implementing the tools and techniques of the lean manufacturing. By implementing the waste reduction in an organization helps in improving the quality of the product and enhances the product durability. This paper also discusses about the tools that are used in the lean manufacturing and their implementation in the manufacturing companies. This paper explains the Work Breakdown structure and the resources which gives the clear idea about the project.

IntroductionThe Solid Waste Management Act (RCW 70.95) defines waste reduction as reducing the amount or toxicity of waste generated or reusing materials. Waste reduction is also known as source reduction and waste prevention (Waste reduction manaual). Moreover, waste is an item that people are required to discard for instance by lain due to its hazardous assets. Some of the things which are considered as waste e.g., household garbage, sewage slurry, wastes from manufacturing companies, discarded cars, old televisions, garden waste, food waste etc.Over 251 million tons of waste is generated each year in United States of America. The waste is coming from the different sources such as industries (pharmaceutical, manufacturing, textile etc.), agriculture, construction and mining activities Now in order to handle all these types of waste, to protect the environment and human beings waste management came into scenario to resolve the issues existing due to waste. The waste management has evolved with many concepts such as reusing, recycling, recovery of energy, disposal, prevention, landfilling and minimization.

The waste reduction has a basic idea which has been followed all over the globe called as 3Rs in which mean reduce, recycle and reuse of the waste being generatedIntroduction 4Basic Ideas Reduce: Since we are generating the waste we must also think what the ways to make it less are. By considering the better ideas on buying the products and goods, also by planning activities we can minimize the waste production.

Recycle: Recycling is the process of transforming the waste materials or items into the usable form of things for the future usage other than landfill disposing. Products like PVC, LDEP, PP and PS are recyclable though they are not collected for the process of recycling.

Reuse: Reuse is the process of using the product in its usual form more than a time. Examples include replenishing glass bottles, recycling long lasting utensils, buying refurbished appliances rather than purchasing new one.

Decreasing per capita unwanted waste group.

Changing the customer thoughts in purchasing the goods which they have less packaging and more quality.

Minimizing the packaging material by the manufacturer of the company.

Decreasing the weight of the product.

Improving the quality of the product and the reusability.

Responsibilities of team members

Gaining knowledge on the project scope and one should know the purpose of the project.They help in identifying the issues and risks involved in the project. Team members in the team should work together as a team and with the good communication. They help in manufacturing the products according to the specifications required by the customer. They should maintain a balance between the project and the non- project work. They contribute towards the positive motivation. They need to report the progress of the project every day to the project manager (Project teamwork).Creating Work Breakdown Structure

Conclusion:

As a conclusion many organizations around the globe was implementing the waste management to enhance the product quality and durability. This can be achieved by using the lean manufacturing tools and techniques such as Kanban, 5s, poka yoke, JIT and cellular manufacturing helps in eliminating the waste. A successful implementation waste management in an organization with proper scheduling can help any organization in preserving a safe work environment, decreasing the turnarounds, improve the quality of product and minimize the cost. Waste reduction assists the company in reducing the cost of the raw materials, machinery and the equipment that is used for the production process. References
