Titel
Disassembly process planning to support the recyclability of used technical products
Abstract
Due to its complexity, amount and variety, scrap from used complex products constitutes a major recycling problem in the industrialised countries. Advanced recycling technologies currently exist only for pure materials. Disassembly fills the gap between scrap from complex products and recycling of pure materials; even more, it allows the reuse of subassemblies and components. In this paper, difficulties in planning disassembly steps are depicted, structured, and illustrated using the example of picture tubes from used monitors.
