Abstract. Metalworking fluids (MWFs) are harmful to the environment and to the health of workers, resulting in pressures to re-design them in accordance with sustainable manufacturing principles. In this paper, we review research being performed at the University of Michigan to minimize the life cycle environmental and health impacts of metalworking fluids while simultaneously improving manufacturing performance. We highlight our research contributions in the following areas: 1) formulation design, 2) biological sensors, 3) advanced recycling, and 4) the use of supercritical fluids. We conclude that it is possible to design more sustainable metalworking fluid systems either by extending dramatically the in-use lifetime of water-based MWFs or better yet by switching to gas-based minimum quantity lubrication systems. Keywords. Metalworking Fluids, Life Cycle Assessment, Minimum Quantity Lubrication, Vegetablebased Lubricants, Supercritical Carbon Dioxide, Biological Sensors

1. Introduction
Sustainable manufacturing adds value to materials, components, or products while maintaining the availability of natural resources and environmental quality for future generations. In this paper we describe contributions to sustainable metalworking fluid systems that form an integral part of a sustainable manufacturing strategy. Although metalworking fluids are coolants and lubricants that have been synonymous with metals manufacturing for centuries, the first instinct we have in sustainable manufacturing is to eliminate the metalworking fluid since it is not embodied in final

    Minimum Quantity Lubrication

    Metal cutting fluids changes the performance of machining operations because of their lubrication, cooling, and chip flushing functions. Typically, in the machining of hardened steel materials, no cutting fluid is applied in the interest of low cutting forces and low environmental impacts. Minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) presents itself as a viable alternative for hard machining with respect to tool wear, heat dissertation, and machined surface quality. This study compares the mechanical performance of minimum quantity lubrication to completely dry lubrication for the turning of hardened bearing-grade steel materials based on experimental measurement of cutting forces, tool temperature, white layer depth, and part finish. The results indicate that the use of minimum quantity lubrication leads to reduced surface roughness delayed tool flank wear, and lower cutting temperature, while also having a minimal effect on the cutting forces.…
