Problem statement: In recent years, much attention has been focused on the eco-efficiency&#13; of product development. The majority of environmental decisions are only made in the later stages of&#13; product development where not much modification can be done. To produce eco-efficient products,&#13; environmental decisions ought to be considered in the early stages of product development. With the&#13; demand of developing more eco-efficient products, designers are found to be lacking the appropriate&#13; design tools and guidelines. Approach: Products were designed to solve problems. Therefore, we&#13; suggest the usage of the 40 principles of TRIZ to generate eco-efficient product designs. The 40&#13; principles of TRIZ is one of the fundamental tools of TRIZ. We studied the design features of different&#13; water filters, washing machines and power drills to correlate the elements of eco-efficiency and the&#13; principles of TRIZ. Results: From the case studies, it was shown that there is a correlation between&#13; eco-efficient elements and TRIZ principles in existing products. The information obtained from the&#13; product case studies alongside with the study of the individual TRIZ principles resulted in the&#13; formation of a new tool. This new tool was called the TRIZEE Design Tool. After that, literature&#13; review on the commonly practiced design methodologies were carried out. A new methodology termed&#13; TRIZEE Design Methodology was developed. New tools and existing tools were incorporated within&#13; this methodology. Conclusion: We proved that there is a correlation between eco-efficient elements&#13; and the 40 principles of TRIZ. Through this research, a new design methodology is also formed to that&#13; can be a guideline for designers.
