Scientific research and modern industries have created splendid material culture, at the same time, they have made the value of entropy increased (when the value of entropy is increased, it will lead to the fact that the nature is confused and unordered, namely, it is the basic reason of the resource crisis and the environmental pollution), and caused many bad consequences, such as exhaustion of resources, deterioration of the environment, etc. Therefore, people begin to realize that they must give up the traditional high entropy industrial production model and adopt the low entropy industrial one.The manufacturing is a pillar industry that creates the wealth of society; on the other hand, it is also one of the greatest pollution sources of human society. How to make manufacture reduce resource consume and produce environmental pollution lacking to the best of its ability is an important cross-field of disciplines between environmental sciences and manufacture. Green manufacturing is the embodiment of sustainable development strategy in the manufacture. It is a sustainable development model of manufacture, a mode in production of a kind of low entropy. And it is the only way for modem enterprises to develop further. However, since the concept of Green Manufacturing come into being, the researches of Green Manufacturing in many countries mostly emphasize particularly on the description of the concept, theories and specific application. The works of environmental assessment of Green Manufacturing have been done by few people. In our country, the research of Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) of Green Manufacturing still belongs to the blank too.In this thesis, the author expounds the current research situations and progresses of SEA and Green Manufacturing and the relation betweenIVthem. The importance of Green Manufacturing SEA is also set forth in the first part. Then according to the way of thinking from theory to practice, the connotation and the support systems of Green Manufacturing SEA have been expatiated on. And the support systems of theory, society and technology of Green Manufacturing SEA are discussed. Namely, the theoretical foundations including the theories of sustainable development, circular economy and systematic sciences. The contribution of legal system on Green Manufacturing SEA, the participation of the public and the training of the relative people are emphasized in the society support system. Moreover, modern techniques such as cleaner production, green design, the selection of green materials and so on are also important for Green Manufacturing SEA. The process, method and contents are put forward hi the third part of the thesis. Based on the thoughts of Life Cycle, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), Expert Consultation and the study of informatics and practice, a comprehensive integrated method is presented. The key of this part is that the author establishes an index system of Green Manufacturing SEA according to some principles that we must abide by in order to build a scientific and proper index systems. It includes the normal property indexes of products, the environmental indexes, resources indexes, economical indexes and social indexes In the forth part, combines the aim of realizing the green automobile industry which was brought forward in the eco-province planning of Jilin Province, the author analyses the connotation of green automobile industry and the necessities of realizing such goal in Jilin Province. At the end of the part, under the guidance of Life Cycle Appraisal/Assessment (LCA), the Green Manufacturing SEA of automobiles is studied by the means that integrated the Analytic Hietatchy Process (AHP) and Expert Consultation. On the basis of such studies, the index system of Green Manufacturing of automobile manufacturing is built. The important environmental impact factors are got by the application of the method and the index system. And the measurement aiming at theseimpact factors are presented in this part. The last part of the t...
