  1. Explain briefly the meaning of the following terms: Life Cycle Impact Assessment (LCIA), Mass production, muda, carbon footprint, quality assurance, appropriate technology, resource substitution, Ehrlich-Commoner equation, environmental Kuznets curve, carbon intensity (for a nation).
  2. (100-200 words) Is the amount of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) in the US declining or increasing? What are some factors affecting this. What types of MSW are most likely to be recycled?
  3. (300 words) How has our understanding of pollution changed over the last 500 years? How has this affected (a) how we design our manufacturing processes and (b) where we place our factories?
  4. (200 words) How is lean production compatible with the goal of waste reduction? In what ways may it conflict with waste reduction?
  5. (Minimum of 200 words) Design a plausible procedure for QA/QC to follow for a typical product line at Acme, such as DMBTFE, to ensure a quality product that meets customer specifications. Use the process outline from problem set 2 as a description of the raw materials needed. Assume that DMBTFE is a white, crystalline solid that is stable to air and water, and of only low toxicity.
  6. (Minimum of 200 words) Describe a life-cycle analysis (based on the ISO method) for an aluminum saucepan with a silicone handle.
