Engineering and innovation: a cleaner production proposal

Abstract

This paper presents an engineering design that promotes cleaner production in silicone cutlery design. The idea seeks to motivate the consumer to maintain a healthy life by eating food made at home. For this, they propose cutlery of easy transfer and comfortable use for different tastes. The idea is driven by the search for new food proposals contributing to environmental conservation in eating implements. The main results show that the proposal is feasible and that waste consumption is considerably reduced with an appropriate cleaner production plan.
