Optimization of Production Schedule Using Advanced Scheduling Tools for Green Production

Abstract

: Significant number of producers and manufacturers are realizing substantial financial and environmental benefits from sustainable/ greener business practices. Sustainable production and manufacturing are the creation of manufactured products through economically-sound processes that minimize negative environmental impacts while conserving energy and natural resources. Sustainable manufacturing also enhances employee, community, and product safety. The aim of the paper is to provide the right information about using scheduling tools such as Advanced Planning and Scheduling tools to improve lead times, optimize constraints by this reduce waste time and lower emissions produced by producing the waste. This paper deals with problematic of production optimization and its impact on production efficiency.
