Providing a solid foundation of knowledge in modeling remanufacturing systems, this book addresses the design, planning, and processing issues faced by decision-makers in the field. With easy-to-use mathematical or simulation modeling to demonstrate solutions for each remanufacturing issue, it helps practitioners understand how a particular issue can be effectively modeled and how to choose the appropriate solution methodology. The book also discusses how increasingly stringent environmental regulations and decreasing natural resources influence manufacturers toward more environmentally conscious manufacturing and product recovery initiatives.
