Suggestion
Based our findings, 3 suggestions are made:
1) Based on our review on environmental information of the printing industry [1]-[5], any research is rarely found due to lack of attention to research importance. Most printing factories pay little attention to the environment due to non-readiness of investment funds and insufficient knowledge of appropriate environmental management. Therefore, the government sector should support further research and study as well as appropriate printing factory designs that are friendly to the environment.
2) A database of the printing industry resource consumption, such as raw materials, water, chemical substances, and energy should be launched to improve know-how, procedure and equipment that can increase competitive capacity and continuous practicality of clean technology for printing as well as the dissemination of it.
3) Academic or research institutes should extend studies and develop clean technology for the knowledge of expansion that complies with the present situation.
