“…Indeed, manufacturing companies are facing several challenges, such as physical resource depletion, stricter laws and regulations, economic stagnation, and customers' demand for higher product quality (Franciosi, Voisin, Miranda, Riemma & Iung, 2020). The sustainable manufacturing paradigm has attracted a great deal of interest in the last years as an approach that aims to empower companies to cope with these challenges (Eslami, Dassisti, Lezoche & Panetto, 2019) and all business functions and services, such as production, internal and external logistic (Di Pasquale, Nenni & Riemma, 2020;Fahimnia, Sarkis, & Davarzani, 2015) and maintenance processes (Franciosi, Di Pasquale, Iannone & Miranda, 2020), must be involved in this transformation in order to contribute to the sustainable operations.…”

“…Nowadays, manufacturing industries are addressing several challenges aimed at reaching new economic, environmental and social goals to achieve sustainable production processes (Eslami, Dassisti, Lezoche & Panetto, 2019;Franciosi, Voisin, Miranda, Riemma & Iung, 2020). To this end, several studies have explored the trends and research challenges in sustainable manufacturing and examined how rethinking business processes contributes to the sustainable performance of manufacturing firms (Franciosi, Di Pasquale, Iannone & Miranda, 2020;Garetti & Taisch, 2012). These studies are a necessary step in contributing to the circular economy (CE) paradigm.…”

Purpose: The circular economy (CE) paradigm, traditionally based on the 3R (reuse, recycle, and remanufacture) principles, provides benefits for sustainability and represents a big opportunity for manufacturing enterprises to reduce costs and take economic advantages. This paper proposes an approach that can help stakeholders transition towards CE oriented business by evaluating the economic convenience of introducing a manual disassembly line to recover the components of End-of-Life (EoL) products in a traditional manufacturing system.Design/methodology/approach: The conceptual approach is generic and based on the characteristics of EoL products and on the reusability and recyclability features of every component. Then, based on the type of product and the disassembly sequence, the disassembly line is built in the virtual environment along the assembly line. The virtual environment must take into account the probabilistic parameters that characterise each real industrial context. Therefore, the assembly-disassembly lines are linked with the variables and economic functions needed to process the outputs of the approach application.Findings: Implemented in a virtual environment, the proposed approach evaluates a priori possible economic and environmental benefits coming from the integration of a disassembly line within a manufacturing context. The approach considers the variability of the EoL products’ status (their reusability and recyclability indices), provides the optimal number of operators that must be assigned to the manual disassembly line and determines the maximum reduction of the product cost that can be gained by introducing the disassembly line. Furthermore, an application example is provided to show the potential of the tool.Originality/value: Recently, the scientific literature has dealt with the issue related to the disassembly process of EoL products from several perspectives (e.g. disassembly line scheduling, planning, balancing, with and without the consideration of the quality of EoL products). However, to the best of our knowledge, no study provided an approach to evaluate the convenience of the investment in a disassembly line. Therefore, this document contributes to this research field by proposing a simple approach that supports the decision-making process of traditional manufacturing enterprises to evaluate a priori the economic return (i.e. how much the product cost decreases) and provide an estimate of the environmental benefits of integrating a manual disassembly line of EoL products with a traditional manufacturing system.

“…According to [7][8][9][10], the success of sustainable manufacturing processes in improving economic, social and environmental performance can be achieved through their integration with maintenance activities. Reference [7] pointed out that "maintenance as part of the circular economy can be considered, first, as an enabling system to sustain the artefact throughout its life cycle, then as a key tool to keep the regeneration potential of this artefact, and finally, as a target system that must be sustainable".…”

This paper presents an empirical study on the impact of maintenance function on more sustainable manufacturing processes. The work methodology comprises four stages. At first, ten factors of maintenance activities from a sustainable manufacturing point of view were identified. Then, in the second stage, the matrix of crossed impact multiplications applied to a classification (MICMAC) was carried out to categorize these factors based on their influence and dependence values. In the third stage, the criteria for evaluation of maintenance factors were defined, then the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (F-AHP) was applied to determine their relative weights. In the last stage, the results of MICMAC and F-AHP analyses were used as inputs for the fuzzy technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (F-TOPIS) to generate aggregate scores and selection of the most important maintenance factors that have an impact on sustainable manufacturing processes. A numerical example is provided to demonstrate the applicability of the approach. It was observed that factors “Implementation of preventive and prognostic service strategies”, “The usage of M&O data collection and processing systems”, and “Modernization of machines and devices” are the major factors that support the realization of sustainable manufacturing process challenges.
