摘要：The importance of human life and the continuing endeavours to enhance its quality have sparked great interest in the improvement of design and manufacture of engineering materials and components in order to be eco-sustainable. The need for environment-friendly manufacturing technologies is essential and vital in today's global state of affairs. But such eco-friendly products do not sustain in the markets though they are environmentally conscious. Customers' aspirations and cost aspects are not prioritised while developing such products. In this context, this article reports a study in which Eco-quality function deployment (Eco-QFD) has been applied for a 95 KV disconnecting switch used as a part of electrostatic precipitator in power plants. Fuzzy method is applied to Eco-QFD to overcome the vagueness and uncertainty and to attain optimal balance between customer satisfaction and environmental concerns. The practical benefits reaped from the study have been presented.
