A model for material flows and economicexchanges within the U.S. automotive life cycle chain

Environmentally conscious manufacturing and product recovery (ECMPRO): A review of the state of the art

“…Boon et al (2001) present a similar analysis for aluminum-intensive vehicles. Bandivadekar et al (2004) investigate the material flows and economic exchanges within the automotive recycling infrastructure. Williams et al (2007) analyze the sensitivity of a recycler's profit to reprocessing and shipment decisions taken under different ferrous and nonferrous metal prices and different EOL vehicle compositions.…”

A model for material flows and economic exchanges within the U.S. automotive life cycle chain

“…As reported by Bandivadekar (2002), for the last several decades dismantler and shredder profits have been $15-$20 and $5-$10 per vehicle, respectively. Figure 4 shows the model-predicted dismantler and shredder profits for this time period.…”

“…At each stage, a certain fraction of the automobiles retire, and those remaining enter into the next age group. The retirement fractions are based on values extracted from the literature and are reported by Bandivadekar (2002). The retiring vehicles are further classified as "new ELVs" or "old ELVs."…”

Modeling and Prediction of the end of Life Vehicles Number Distribution in Serbia

“…To explain the impact of changes in the material composition of the vehicle on the sustainability of the economy and the environment within the automotive recycling infrastructure, Bandivadekar et al [15] developed a simulation model for recovery and recycling of cars. This model describes the flow of materials and economic exchange of any business issue within the automotive recycling infrastructure.…”
