Abstract:
Developing green economy to achieve green growth has become an inevitable trend
of the modern world economy. Green growth reflects how economies respond to climate
change and natural resource depletion; reflects trends in finding new growth models with
green industry emerging as a spearhead, creating new and highly competitive growth drivers;
At the same time, it demonstrates the efforts of governments in restructuring the economy
towards green and sustainable growth. The concept of a green economy has emerged as a
pivotal approach to address the pressing challenges of environmental degradation, resource
depletion, and socioeconomic inequality. This abstract encapsulates a comprehensive
research endeavor aimed at elucidating the multifaceted dimensions of green economy
implementation and its implications for sustainable development. This research contributes to
the evolving discourse on green economy implementation and provides actionable
recommendations for policymakers, businesses, and civil society stakeholders. It underscores
the imperative of integrated approaches that harmonize environmental preservation with
socio-economic development objectives, fostering resilience and prosperity for present and
future generations.
Keywords: Green economy, green manufacturing, research, company, sustainable.

I. INTRODUCTION.
1.1. Reasons for choosing the topic
In the context of increasingly fierce global economic competition, green development
have become a major trend of global economic and social transformation. Above all, “ Green
production - unique path to green export.” The term “green” is now widely used, although
its origins lie more in the popular press than the scientific community. Increasingly, the term

1
is used interchangeably on the more established “sustainability” concept, and so this means
taking a holistic view of environmental, social and economic impact (Dobers & Wolff, 2000;
Kleindorfer, Singhal, & van Wassenhove, 2005; Rahimifard & Clegg, 2007; Saha & Darnton,
2005; Seliger, Kim, Kernbaum & Zettl, 2008). Elkington (1997, p. 22) presents the challenge
to achieve sustainability as “an unprecedented source of commercial opportunity for
competitive companies, through technological innovation and improved eco-efficiency”. In
addition, Green manufacturing is also known as Environmentally Conscious Manufacturing
(ECM) or Manufacturing for the Environment (ME). It is a modern manufacturing mode
taking comprehensive account of environmental impact and resource consumption. However,
Green manufacturing is a new manufacturing mode and in the continuous development, so far
there is no clear definition for green manufacturing system and lack of comprehensive,
multiple points of view in-depth research. Thus, how to fully describe the structure and
composition of the green manufacturing system from the perspective of system, based on the
definition and connotation of the green manufacturing system, is of great significance to the
study of the green manufacturing system.That is the reason why we chose the research on
green production in enterprises.
1.2. Objectives of the study
Research on green production in enterprises is the popular topic that aims to making
minimum negative impacts on the environment and attaining higher resource utilization in
whole life cycle of the production design, manufacture, packaging, transportation and reuse.
The implement and optimization for the green manufacturing help the enterprise earns more
economic benefits and social benefits. It also helps businesses optimize raw materials. Green
production also helps reducing greenhouse emissions, aiming for carbon neutrality and
sustainable development. Above all, raising awareness in implementing the Net Zero
campaign is the most important aim. Besides, Businesses are given opportunities to expand
domestic and foreign markets.

II. METHODOLOGY
2.1. Dataset Description
In this study, analytical data is taken from 5 data articles retrieved from the Data
Mendeley site, 5 data articles include many research articles that have been synthesized. The
keywords used for the query to get access to the data like green economy, green
manufacturing, research, company, sustainable,…
2.2. Text mining method

2
 According to Wu et al. (2006), text mining is a technique that helps users find useful
information from a large number of digital text documents on the Web or a database. But
Leopold et al. defined that text mining provides many approaches to extracting information
and knowledge from text data such as classification, segmentation, clustering, semantic
space, etc.
Much of the data generated is unstructured, which makes it difficult and expensive for
organizations to analyze with human help. This challenge combined with the exponential
growth of data has led to the development of analytics tools. Text mining allows users to
extract useful information from a huge data set. From there, synthesize the frequency of
keywords to create a matrix of co-occurring and related topic clusters, thereby analyzing the
connection between them. Basic steps include:
Collecting data from mass information sources such as websites, newspapers,...
Converting text from unstructured form to structured form.
Then, removing the necessary information: Eliminating unnecessary information.
Analyzing the text based on the probability of keywords appearing, the system will remove
some redundant words such as: is, are, the, etc. and retain valuable information.
Next, evaluate knowledge after processing and present the results obtained.
Finally, storing important information in the database, promoting analysis of current
trends, thereby bringing valuable information to businesses and giving enterprises correct
assessment and solution.

III. LITERATURE REVIEW.

3.1. Concept and importance of green production
According to some reference materials such as the book Green Manufacturing:
Fundamentals and Applications by David A. Domfeld edited from Kim, Y. S., Kim, Y. B., &
Park, S. S. The document shows the basic foundation and applications of manufacturing
green, including technical, environmental and business aspects.
Green production is a production process in which from input materials to output
products are environmentally friendly and do not cause harm to human health. Faced with the
impacts of climate change, in a context of heavy environmental pollution, resources are
gradually depleted. The main goal is to optimize resource efficiency and minimize negative
environmental and social impacts. This promotes sustainable development and improves the
quality of life for both humanity and the planet.

3
 When tested as a green product, the product is considered an environmentally friendly
product and receives higher trust from users. These products must be tested when brought to
the market and delivered to consumers. Inspect and evaluate compliance with food safety
standards according to the provisions of law.
The world is increasingly developing and the planet's resources are gradually depleted
and contaminated because of the strong destruction of humans. Therefore, many countries are
increasingly focusing on green production processes and introducing the best measures to
protect the environment, bringing benefits to businesses and society. Green production is
really important for people, society and businesses with the following factors:
● Green manufacturing helps minimize negative impacts on the environment, including
reducing waste, air and water pollution, and deforestation. In this way, it helps protect
biodiversity and maintain important ecosystems.
● By using resources efficiently and reusing materials, green manufacturing helps
reduce waste and save precious resources such as water, energy, and land.
● Green manufacturing often comes with optimizing production processes, minimizing
waste and operating costs, thereby enhancing business performance and improving
profits.
● Developing highly sustainable products and services can open up new business
opportunities and attract customers interested in sustainable products and brands.
3.2. Methods applied to green production are often used by businesses.
To meet the need for environmental protection, more and more businesses have begun
to apply "green" and "environmentally friendly" methods in their production and business
operations. This not only helps minimize negative impacts on the environment but also brings
many economic and social benefits. Among them, a number of green production methods are
applied in production and business operations such as:
● Prioritize environmentally friendly products/services in production: Look for products
that are produced using sustainable processes, use less natural resources and energy,
and can be recycled or reused. .
● Limit the use of nylon/plastic packaging and switch to paper packaging.
● Choose to cooperate with partners who prioritize environmental protection and have
awareness in green product production
● In use, the system automatically adjusts energy consumption and improves energy
management. By using renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, hydropower

4
 and bioenergy to provide electricity for production activities. Typical technologies
include solar panel systems, wind turbines,...
● Promote the use of recycled and reused materials in the production process to reduce
the amount of new resources used.
● Use water reuse systems, manage underground rivers and water resources, and
minimize indiscriminate water consumption during production.
● Switch to using LED lights instead of compact or halogen lights because LEDs
consume less energy, have a long lifespan, emit little heat and do not contain many
toxic substances such as mercury or sulfur.

IV. BENEFITS AND CHALLENGES OF INTEGRATING GREEN PRODUCTION IN

BUSINESS
4.1 Benefits of green production
*Protect the environment and save costs for businesses
Using alternative energy sources: In the green production process, businesses can
replace current energy sources with other forms of energy. We recommend using renewable
energy, because this energy source is cheap, natural, abundant, renewable, and produces low
emissions. Some popular renewable energy sources today include solar energy, wind,
geothermal energy, hydrogen, etc. (United Nation, n.d). Thus, using renewable energy not
only helps businesses save a large amount of money, but also helps reduce the impact on the
environment and climate.
Recycling: Carefully check scraps and waste before discharging into the environment
to avoid wasting reusable materials. In addition, recycling them also helps save a large
amount of money for businesses, contributes to environmental protection, reduces waste and
saves energy.
*Public Relations:
The problem of environmental pollution is of concern to the whole world. Customers
are gradually turning to using clean energy sources and green products. Therefore, businesses
that choose to develop towards green production will meet customer needs, thereby attracting
them and gaining advantages over competitors.
4.2. Challenges and limitations of integrating green production in businesses
Initial costs: To switch to green production process, businesses must accept to
change the entire current management process and reinvest from the beginning. This costs a

5
lot of money for businesses, especially businesses in the electronics, home appliance
industry, etc.
Slow payback: Because the initial cost for green production is very large, the payback
takes longer
Lack of quality human resources: To serve the green production process of
businesses, it is necessary to find a workforce that meets sufficient expertise and techniques.
However, green production is a relatively new concept, so finding suitable human resources
can be considered one of the challenges of green production.
Challenges from the supply chain: When businesses choose to convert green
production, but their suppliers have not. This will affect the quality of the business's products.
If a third party confirms that the business's products do not meet the requirements and the
"green" quality certificate, they can cancel the order.
Lack of supportive policies: Policies aimed at green production in Vietnam are
currently only at the proposal and approach level. Therefore, there are still not many
incentives for loans to green production enterprises. According to a survey by Ho Chi Minh
City University of Technology, up to 89% of businesses do not receive state support for green
production processes.
4.3. Projects and practical applications.
In VietNam, The US-Vietnam Getting to Net-Zero Workshop: Industrial
Manufacturing Decarbonisation took place in the southern province of Binh Duong on
January 18 (VNA, 2024). The event was co-organized by the Provincial's Committee, the US
Consulate in Ho Chi Minh City and Becamex IDC, with more than 200 domestic and foreign
businesses participating. US Consul General in Ho Chi Minh City said Vietnam has emerged
as a key industrial production center in the region. The strong growth of the logistics sector
comes with environmental challenges, forcing companies to convert to green production
models and renewable energy to suit the world situation. Additionally, U.S. companies are
interested in cutting-edge technologies, especially solutions like rooftop solar, as part of their
commitment to reduce emissions and promote the shared goal of achieving net zero
emissions by 2025 at the event. Additionally, March 26, 2024, QTSC Company and HCM
City Digital Transformation Consulting & Support Center (DXCenter) organized a Workshop
on "Sustainable Production Towards Green Growth" (DXCenter, 2024). The workshop is part
of a series of activities to celebrate the 23rd anniversary of the establishment of Quang Trung
Software Company. This workshop also revolves around the issue of green production and
reducing emissions into the environment. The workshop showed Vietnam's process for

6
implementing, through Vietnam's participation in international conventions on global
pollution control, climate change, environmental protection... Furthermore, the Vietnamese
Government has completed the process of the legal corridor to management and policies for
the Green Transition. The decisions and circulars were made towards the same goal of the
workshop in Binh Duong: Vietnam Net to Zero Carbon by 2050 and the economic trend of
ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance).
In the world, particularly in China, China’s Electric Motor (EM) Upgrading Project:
According to Zhou et al. (2015), in 2013, China launched a project on energy saving
through upgrading electric motors (2013-2015), with the aim of creating favorable conditions
for the development, application and dissemination of highly efficient EM, to promote
industry upgrading and improve energy efficiency levels to help create a transition towards
sustainable development. The central government sets a national target that by 2015, 50% of
low-voltage induction motor products and 40% of high-voltage motor products must be
upgraded. It is expected that 80 billion kWh of electricity output can be saved annually,
accounting for about 7.3% of annual energy consumption in China. During the testing
process, China chose to upgrade the injection molding machine. The injection molding stage
is an energy-intensive stage in the production of plastic materials. Injection molding
machines can be upgraded using energy-saving servo motors, which can reduce energy
consumption by about 30%-80%. There are about one million injection molding machines in
different types of industries in China, mainly distributed across Guangdong, Zhejiang and
Jiangsu provinces. Dongguan City and Foshan City have been selected as two pilot
demonstration sites in China for this ten thousand spray model machine upgrade
demonstration project, both of which need to complete 50 million kW upgrades motor
machines in 2015. In particular, Dongguan City has implemented practical plans to upgrade
10,000 EM systems in injection molding machines from 2013 to 2017, with 1000, 2500,
2500, 2000 and 2000 machines upgraded (or replaced) accordingly every year. As a result,
each year after the project ends, 0.5 billion kWh of electricity were saved.
Additionally, China had started using the Green Manufacturing Process Planning
Support System (GMPPSS):
According to He et al. (2007),GMPPSS differs from the popular computer-aided
process planning (CAPP) process, which supports process planning. The goal of GMPPSS is
to optimize raw material consumption, secondary material consumption, energy consumption
and environmental impact of process planning with the support of a green process database ,
helping the production process become more benign. GMPPSS is developed with a three-

7
level Web-based structure and software copyright registration in China. GMPPSS includes
two types of operating procedures: functional module operations and overall operations. The
GMPPSS system supports effective green process planning through three steps: process
component selection, process key optimization, and process improvement.
Step 1: The system first determines green process information, evaluates the green
attributes of process components such as machines, tools, cutting fluids... Then, the system
recommends replacement components. Greener potential to improve initial process planning.
Step 2: The system determines the second green process information, including green
attribute evaluation of process routing and energy reduction planning information. The
system also identifies the activity with the least green attributes in the process.
Step 3: The proposed system replaces the activity with the worst green attribute with a
new, more benign activity to plan a third process with improved overall green attribute.
The GMPPSS system is developed with a three-level Web-based Browser/Server
(B/S) structure, supporting many businesses at the same time. The system provides key
functions such as process component selection, optimization of process keys, and evaluation
of process projects. The GMPPSS system offers many benefits such as helping technologists
with process planning effective green process, improving the green attributes of the
production process and minimizing environmental impact. However, the effectiveness of
GMPPSS depends on many factors such as data quality, model accuracy and user experience.
Implementation in a machining tool factory will verify the applicability of the system.

V. RESULT AND OPINION DISCUSSION

5.1. Overall result of VOSviewer analyse
Final results of analyzing VOSviewer software through data analysis of abstracts in
several researches on green production in enterprises all over the world demonstrate an
obvious relationship between keywords relating in this field. This program displays keywords
as a visual grid, each keyword is represented by a node, so the connection between the nodes
will illustrate the association between keywords. In picture 1, the topic about green
manufacturing in enterprises is separated into four colors: red, yellow, blue and green. In this
data analyzation, the nodes which represtent for the keywords such as: Green economy,
economy, study, system, research, model, country, system, analyzation, green manufacturing
are the most popular . These words represent crucial aspects of digital transformation and
green manufacturing in this sector, they provide an overview of the associations between
important keywords and can aid in future research and development direction.

 Research on green production is an important field for sustainable economic and
environmental development. In this study, keywords such as "green economy", "economy",
and "economic growth" are often used to refer to economic models that focus on sustainable
development and the use of environmental resources. effectively, while not harming the
environment. The field of "agriculture" plays an important role in this research, as it is
concerned with the sustainable management of land, water use and pesticide control facilities.
“Concept” is another aspect of green manufacturing research that helps to better understand
its goals and methods.
The keywords “investment” and "country" show that investing in green production
projects may require support from the government and international organizations, and
research on ways to promote investment in the field in different countries is also an
indispensable part. It concerns how green production strategies are invested and implemented
at the national level.
The concept of "climate change" is also closely related to green production, as it
emphasizes minimizing the impact of climate change through measures to reduce emissions
and use renewable energy sources. This is one of the specific assessments for the
effectiveness of applying green methods in the production and operation of businesses.
The keywords "economic development" "challenge" "education" "governance" show
that green production is also a means to promote sustainable economic development in
developing regions without harming the environment. However, there are many challenges to
overcome in promoting and implementing green production measures, including economic,
political and social aspects. Education and government influence play an important role in
facilitating the development of green knowledge systems in production and promoting green
production measures into practice.

10
Part 2

Figure 5.3: Results of the yellow cluster

(Source: VOSviewer analysis results)

Keywords related to this yellow group: “study”,

“manufacture”,”model”,”system”,”process”,”. Research on the green economy will involve
production, dels, and researching green production processes. The Green Economy Model
(GEM) was created taking into account four main capitals and their interconnections:
physical capital, human capital, social capital and natural capital. Designing and
implementing significant interventions such as public spending, policy changes, and
regulation adjustments that support inclusive income possibilities, sustainable economic
growth, job creation, and environmental preservation are all necessary steps in the transition
to a greener economy. Therefore, in order to support sticking with the assessment of the
cross-sectoral economic, social, and environmental implications of green economy policies,
approaches and models are required. To be more specific, methodological approaches and
models should enable the following tasks: quantifying trends and evaluating them for issue
identification; identifying entry points for interventions and setting targets for policy
formulation; assessing ex ante the potential impact across sectors and the effectiveness of
selected interventions in solving stated problems (or taking advantage of opportunities) for
policy assessment; and monitoring and evaluating the impact of the interventions chosen
against a baseline scenario for ex-post assessment / analysis and policy monitoring and
evaluation.

11
 A manufacturing paradigm embraces a group of integrated strategies, principles and
techniques that work together to achieve one of more objective. The term green
manufacturing was coined to reflect the new manufacturing paradigm that employs various
green strategies (objectives and principles) and techniques (technology and innovations) to
become more eco-efficient. This includes creating products/systems that consumes less
material and energy, substituting input materials (e.g. non-toxic for toxic, renewable for non-
renewable), reducing unwanted outputs and converting outputs to inputs (recycling).
Part 3.

Figure 5.4: Results of the blue cluster

(Source: VOSviewer analysis results)

The keywords mentioned in this blue group are: “energy”, “cost”, “reduction”,
“source”,” efficiency”. Firstly, it allows companies to align their operations with global
efforts to combat climate change and preserve natural resources. By minimizing waste
generation, reducing energy consumption, and optimizing resource utilization, manufacturers
can significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Furthermore, implementing green manufacturing practices promotes operational
efficiency and cost-effectiveness in the long run. By adopting energy-efficient technologies
and processes, companies can reduce energy consumption and lower utility bills while
simultaneously improving productivity.

12
 Moreover, waste reduction strategies not only contribute to a cleaner environment but
also lead to substantial cost savings by minimizing raw material usage and disposal costs.
However, despite the numerous advantages it offers, embracing green manufacturing is not
without its challenges.
Part 4.

Figure 5.5: Results of the green cluster

(Source: VOSviewer analysis results)

In this green group, keywords mentioned are: “practice”, “implication”,

“relationship”, “company”, “adoption”, “services”. The practice of implementing new
technologies of green manufacturing within a company carries significant implications for its
relationship with various stakeholders. The adoption of innovative solutions for applying
green production lines not only affects internal processes but also influences the company's
reputation in the industry and its relationship with customers, suppliers, and the community.
Each adoption decision about using a sustainable manufacturing process must be carefully
considered, as it can have far-reaching consequences. Successful adoption practices can
strengthen the company's competitive position and enhance its relationship with customers by
offering improved green products or services. However, failure to adopt appropriate
technologies may result in the company falling behind its competitors and damaging its

13
relationships with stakeholders. Therefore, a strategic approach to green technology adoption
is crucial for maintaining a positive relationship with all parties involved.
5.2. Proposed Solutions
At present, balance between economic development and environmental protection has
become one of the most important issues. With rapid change of technology, businesses
cannot miss the opportunity to create a low-carbon, balanced and sustainable economy. The
businesses are required to have innovation, grasp smart solutions, and use natural resources
effectively. This not only helps them minimize the negative impact on the environment, but
also create a sustainable competitive advantage in the future. The businesses need to have
sound thinking about the circular economy. Reality has shown that many businesses have
recently taken initiatives and solutions for a circular economy suitable with their
circumstances such as designing and operating green supply chains; developing industrial
symbiosis models, developing environmentally friendly products made from waste, and
more. Businesses should proactively develop similar models to improve economic efficiency
and bring benefits to the environment. Businesses should boldly innovate and “rethink” about
their own production and consumption distribution systems and each product from product
design, production cycle design, and distribution to make products greener, more circular,
and reduce carbon emissions. Below is the specific green production application process that
we propose
1. Evaluation and Goal Setting:
- Assess the current environmental impact of the business.
- Set specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and time-bound (SMART) goals to reduce
your environmental impact.
2. Optimize Production Process:
- Reduce material and energy waste through techniques such as lean manufacturing and waste
management.
- Use energy efficient technologies, such as energy-efficient machinery and LED lighting
systems.
- Switch to renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power.
3. Use Sustainable Materials:
- Use recycled, reused and sustainably sourced materials in production.
- Reduce use of toxic and non-biodegradable materials.
- Partner with suppliers who are committed to sustainability.
4. Effective Waste Management:

14
- Minimize waste through recycling, reuse and source reduction initiatives.
- Partner with environmentally responsible waste management service providers.
- Explore opportunities to turn waste into energy or other useful products.
5. Education and Training:
- Educate employees about the importance of green manufacturing and their role in reducing
environmental impact.
- Provide training on green manufacturing best practices and sustainable technologies.
- Encourage employees to come up with sustainability initiatives and ideas.
6. Innovation and Research:
- Invest in research and development of new green manufacturing technologies and
processes.
- Collaborate with universities, research institutes and other organizations to drive innovation
in sustainability.
- Explore opportunities to apply advanced technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI)
and the Internet of Things (IoT), to improve environmental performance.
7. Reporting and Transparency:
- Track and report progress on green manufacturing goals.
- Share best practices and successes with stakeholders, including customers, suppliers, and
the community.
- Receive sustainability certifications and awards to demonstrate your business's commitment
to green manufacturing.

VI. CONCLUSION
In conclusion, green manufacturing, also called sustainable manufacturing, is
becoming more popular among companies in today's society. As consumers become more
concerned about the environment, businesses are recognizing the value of pursuing
sustainable practices, green production is becoming more popular for companies as
consumers become more concerned with the environment. Despite the presence of difficulties
associated with implementing environmentally responsible practices, the payoff is evident.
