An information system for anonymous recycling of end products

Recycling is one of the most important solutions for reducing material and energy consumption, and that of end products is considered as the most effective one. To promote recycling of end products, this paper discusses the requirements for information systems, in which people exchange their owning end products through auctions, while assuming that the major barrier for people to participate these auctions is that people who sell or buy products to be recycled are traceable. It is also shown that these requirements can be satisfied by the state of the art technologies.
