Abstract :
Basic guidelines are necessary in view of the change in manufacturing principles away from the conventional focus on convenience of use to greater consideration of recovering resources in the venous system of the human resource cycling, or recycling. Furthermore, for the purpose of promoting recycling, there are a number of technical issues to be solved in the venous system where wastes are taken after being disposed of. Such issues must be reviewed. It is also necessary to consider what kind of information should be attached to products in order to facilitate efficiency in recycling. Shown in this paper are items chosen as a result of reviewing the matters concerned
