Abstract: A method includes determining, by a processing device, a first eco-efficiency characterization associated with a first design of manufacturing equipment based on one or more of water eco-efficiency characterization, emissions eco-efficiency characterization, or electrical energy eco-efficiency characterization. The water eco-efficiency characterization, the emissions eco-efficiency characterization, the electrical energy eco-efficiency characterization, and the first eco-efficiency characterization are associated with an amount of environmental impact generated by the manufacturing equipment per unit product produced by the manufacturing equipment. The method further includes comparing the first eco-efficiency characterization to a second eco-efficiency characterization that is associated with a second design of the manufacturing equipment. The method further includes implementing the second design of the manufacturing equipment responsive to determining, based on the comparing, that the second eco-efficiency characterization is associated with a lower amount of environmental impact per unit product than the first eco-efficiency characterization.
