“…These topics sometimes contain environmental analysis and discuss how disassembly can contribute toward waste reduction (Tian et al 2012). The topics of Evaluation methods are a less popular research area compared to other topics; nevertheless, it does have influence on other studies, as the parameters used in the evaluation methods are modified or expanded by some researchers (Go, Wahab, Rahman, Ramli & Azhari, 2011). Management -http://dx.doi.org/10.3926/jiem.2053 In general, the drawbacks of the existing research on disassembly can be summarised as follows:…”

Abstract:Purpose: Disassembly is an important process that distinguishes remanufacturing from conventional manufacturing. It is a unique process that becomes focus of investigation from many scholars. Yet, most scholars investigate disassembly from technical and operational standpoint that lack of strategic perspective. This paper attempts to fill this gap by looking at disassembly from a strategic perspective by considering organisational characteristics, process choices and product attributes. To be more specific, this paper has three objectives. First, to gain understanding what has been done, and what need to be done in the field of disassembly in remanufacturing. Second, to conduct a systematic literature review for identifying the factors affecting disassembly for remanufacturing. Third, to propose a new model of disassembly for remanufacturing and also to provide avenues for future research.Design/methodology/approach: This study used a systematic literature review method. A series of steps were undertaken during the review. The study was started with determining the purpose of the study, selecting appropriate keywords, and reducing the selected papers using a number of criteria. A deeper analysis was carried out on the final paper that meets the criteria for this review.-899- 2053 Findings: There are two main findings of this study. First, a list of factors affecting disassembly in remanufacturing is identified. The factors can be categorised into three groups: organisational factors, process choices and product attributes. Second, using factors that have been identified, a new model of disassembly process for remanufacturing is developed. Current studies only consider disassembly as a physical activity to break down products into components. In the new model, disassembly is viewed as a process that converts into into output, which consist of a series of steps. Journal ofIndustrial Engineering and Management -http://dx.doi.org/10.3926/jiem. Research limitations/implications:The opportunities for future research include: the need to develop an index of factors affecting disassembly, and how to most appropriate relationship between original equipment manufacturers and contract remanufacturers to share knowledge gained from remanufacturing operations to improve product remanufacturability. Practical implications:Remanufacturers should not focus on product attributes only in order to manage their disassembly process efficiently. Rather, more strategic factors such organisational factors and process choices should also be considered as well.Originality/value: This is the first study that identifies a comprehensive factors affecting disassembly in remanufacturing. In addition, it is for the first time that disasembly is not only viewed as a physical activity, but it is a process that consists of a series of step.

“…Among several related books, the 1996 volume Design for Environment (Graedel and Allenby 1996 ) stimulated interest among industrial design groups throughout the world (e.g., Klausner et al 1998 ;Stevels 2001 ). Aspects of disassembly, remanufacture, and recycling, widely discussed in the 1990s, have continued to be emphasized (Cândido et al 2011 ;Go et al 2011 ;Hatcher et al 2011 ;Ryan 2014 ).…”

Taking Stock of Industrial Ecology

Industrial ecology can be said to have begun with a 1989 seminal publication entitled "Strategies for Manufacturing." During the next decade, the fi eld was initially defi ned and developed by researchers in industry and elsewhere who saw the opportunity for improving corporate and governmental performance related to the environment and sustainability. They introduced design for environment, industrial symbiosis, and resource use and loss assessments at national and global levels and enhanced the embryonic specialty of life-cycle assessment. In the same decade, industrial ecology became widely recognized as a scholarly specialty, with its own journals and conferences. This chapter reviews industrial ecology's emergence and evolution, largely from a North American perspective, with emphasis on the fi eld's lesser-known fi rst decade.

“…For example, Richards (1994) [49], Sarkis (1995) [47], Zhang et al (1997) [50], Gungor and Gupta (1999) [51], Nagel and Meyer (1999) [42] and Melnyk et al (2003) [52] emphasise the importance of value recovery activities, whereas Sarkis (2001) [48] includes aspects related to decisions to implement a manufacturing strategy. Go et al (2011) [53] have studied said effects on end-of-life vehicles in the automotive industry. Other authors have studied environmentally responsible approaches for responsible manufacturing from an ecological view (Florida, 1996; Zhang et al, 1997) [45,50], including job safety (Zhang et al, 1997) [50].…”

Abstract:The aim of the current study is to evaluate new preventive command-and-control environmental regulation's competitive effects on automobile manufacturers and their suppliers. The methodology that we have used is a case analysis, and its main aim is to study an unfamiliar situation. Therefore, we have chosen cases from each of the groups: two suppliers and one manufacturer. The new regulation obliges automobile companies to deeply modify their process technologies and their relationships with their suppliers (toughening requirements and strengthening long-term relationships) and to require their workers to train in environmental matters. Complying with regulation by suppliers will be possible if product and process designs are modified. However, only organisational actions, which include workers' training in environmental and quality matters and activities to recover value in factories, are capable to achieve it. In any case, these factories have already been affected by trade-offs between environmental and other more classic manufacturing objectives, especially quality.
