This chapter discusses on environmental issues of thin films, green coating techniques, and green engineering. The synthesis also presents the life cycle of thin films and stresses the necessity of decreasing ecological impacts. Options of applying environmentally friendly materials and energy-conserving processes are mentioned as resolutions that lead to environmental degradation as the main goals of the coating technology. The chapter also looks into green engineering solutions that can be applied in thin film design and fabrication to uphold sustainability in all sectors. Thus, the outlined aspects of the chapter stress the need for environmentally friendly approaches in thin film technology to achieve sustainable development and avoid negative environmental effects. A general understanding of the analysis reveals that thin film applications are not invulnerable to change and that through the introduction of new ideas and engineering approaches to the manufacturing process, sustainable use of technological resources and protection of the environment is fully achievable.

摘要

This chapter discusses on environmental issues of thin films, green coating techniques, and green engineering. The synthesis also presents the life cycle of thin films and stresses the necessity of decreasing ecological impacts. Options of applying environmentally friendly materials and energy-conserving processes are mentioned as resolutions that lead to environmental degradation as the main goals of the coating technology. The chapter also looks into green engineering solutions that can be applied in thin film design and fabrication to uphold sustainability in all sectors. Thus, the outlined aspects of the chapter stress the need for environmentally friendly approaches in thin film technology to achieve sustainable development and avoid negative environmental effects. A general understanding of the analysis reveals that thin film applications are not invulnerable to change and that through the introduction of new ideas and engineering approaches to the manufacturing process, sustainable use of technological resources and protection of the environment is fully achievable.
