Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) Process for Applied Mechanics, Mechatronics and Materials towards Sustainable Development-Sustainability excellence achievements

摘要

This research has been focussed on to the design and development of sustainable ozone layer to restore back global warming potential into original conditions. The Sustainable ozone layer is a kind of new Ozone layer development that meets the needs of the present generation's ultraviolet radiation protection requirements without compromising the ability and efficacy of the future generations to meet their own ultraviolet radiation protection requirements. Strategic environmental assessment process (SEA) can be defined as the systematic identification and evaluation of the potential strategic environmental impacts of proposed projects, plans, programs, or legilative actions relative to the physical-chemical, biological, cultural, and socio-economical components of the total strategic environment. The primary purpose of the SEA process is to encourage the consideration of the sustainability in planning and design making process process and to ultimately arrive at actions which are sustainably compatible. In this research, SEA process has been aimed to incorporate environmental and sustainability factors concerned to applied mechanics, mechatronics, and materials for project planning and decision-making process such as project formulation and appraisal of Indo-Matsushita midget electrode or Matsushita Carbon Company (MCC) plant in 1979 at Tada and cotton roller ginning plant as well as certain other projects that included policies, programs, plans and legislative actions. Sustainable development is a kind of development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability and efficacy of future generations to meet their own needs. Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) process can be defined as the systematic study of the potential impacts (effects) of proposed projects, plans, programs, policies or legislative actions relative to the physical-chemical, biological, cultural, and socioeconomic components of the total environmental product life cycle. The primary purpose of the EIA process is to encourage the consideration of the environment in Organizational's planning and decision-making process (OPDM) and to arrive at actions that are environmentally compatible. OPDM process should include the integrated consideration of technical or engineering, economic, environmental, safety, and health, social and sustainability factors to achieve business excellence. Prior to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process in 1970 in the USA, technical and economic factors dominance the World's projects. The objective of the study design conceptualization of SEA process based on fifteen number of sustainable detailed project reports (DPRs) submitted by the extension learners of Diploma in Entrepreneurship and Business Management (DEBM) course conducted by the Entrepreneurship Development Institute of India (The EDI of India) during the research year (RY) 1999 to 2018 under the author's counsellorship. The design of the study is cross sectional. SEA system is a potentially useful element of good environmental management and sustainable development; however, as currently practiced in industries, it is far from perfection. Emphasis should be given in industries on maintaining economic viability of the operation, while in turn taking care to preserve the ecological and social sustainability of the country. International EIA process required multi-disciplinary approach that has been conducted very early stage of Indo-Matsushita Midget electrode project in 1982 at Tada for technical, economic, ecological and social sustainability.
