We report here the experimental investigation of lightly sooting methane premixed flames with and without hydrogen. Two different approaches were considered to introduce hydrogen in the methane flame, either by keeping the total gas flow rate constant or not. Speciation data were obtained using a set of analytical tools including Gas Chromatography, Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, Jet-Cooled Laser-Induced Fluorescence, Laser-induced Incandescence coupled with Cavity Ring-Down Spectroscopy.The results include mole fraction profiles of gaseous species (C 0 -C 16 ) and soot volume fraction (f v ) measured in all studied flames. These results demonstrate that the introduction of hydrogen to the flame insignificantly impacts the maximum mole fractions of small species (

“…In reality, most products will eventually end up being recycled, incinerated or landfill, but remanufacturing ensures that the product can have multiple lifecycles before getting to the stage where it has no remaining useful life (RUL) and thereby can be recycled, which is the final recovery option. The environmental and economic assessments in remanufacturing have been well evaluated by [11] and the economic benefits in terms of cost savings have been analyzed by [12]. The environmental benefits of remanufacturing have a great role to play with regard to attaining sustainability [13] and a case study on a truck injector case has been used to demonstrate these benefits.…”

Remanufacturing is a domain that has increasingly been exploited during recent years due to its numerous advantages and the increasing need for society to promote a circular economy leading to sustainability. Remanufacturing is one of the main end-of-life (EoL) options that can lead to a circular economy. There is therefore a strong need to prioritize this option over other available options at the end-of-life stage of a product because it is the only recovery option that maintains the same quality as that of a new product. This review focuses on the different lifecycle strategies that can help improve remanufacturing; in other words, the various strategies prior to, during or after the end-of-life of a product that can increase the chances of that product being remanufactured rather than being recycled or disposed of after its end-of-use. The emergence of the fourth industrial revolution, also known as industry 4.0 (I4.0), will help enhance data acquisition and sharing between different stages in the supply chain, as well boost smart remanufacturing techniques. This review examines how strategies like design for remanufacturing (DfRem), remaining useful life (RUL), product service system (PSS), closed-loop supply chain (CLSC), smart remanufacturing, EoL product collection and reverse logistics (RL) can enhance remanufacturing. We should bear in mind that not all products can be remanufactured, so other options are also considered. This review mainly focuses on products that can be remanufactured. For this review, we used 181 research papers from three databases; Science Direct, Web of Science and Scopus.

“…Many components of a reman product originate from a recovery process of the used product, and hence remanufacturing consumes a much reduced amount of energy and produces in much less waste [ 3 ]. For instance, the amount of energy saving from remanufacturing of machine tools can be more than 80% ([ 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 ]).…”

Many firms prefer to lease rather than to buy a product as leasing does not require a large investment cost. Leased products can be brand new products or remanufactured products (henceforth referred to as reman products). The market of reman products has grown in the last two decades due to the increasing concern of sustainability issues. This in turn brings a positive impact on the demand of leased reman products. In general, the reliability of the reman product is closed to the reliability level of a new product. To guarantee a high performance of a leased reman product, a more effective maintenance strategy is required. In this paper, we investigate a condition-based maintenance (CBM) policy to be used for maintaining a lease reman product. With the CBM policy, the condition of the reman product is monitored and controlled periodically, and hence it can avoid failure before it occurs and reduce unnecessary maintenance actions. This in turn improves the performance of the leased reman product and provides more value to the lessee. The lessor will incur a penalty cost if the performance is below a predefined threshold value. We obtain the optimal inspection interval minimizing the expected total cost and provide the numerical example for illustrating the optimal solution.
