Review and Proposed Eco-Process Innovation Performance Framework

Rapid growth of industrial activities throughout the world has resulted in an ever-worsening environmental degradation. Manufacturers must be proactive on environmental issues and link their operations beyond the economic rewards, to consider environmental and social impacts in their processes. In t...
