Abstract :
Low gains for disassembled components and materials as well as high efforts make a profitable recycling difficult. This paper presents two approaches to improve the efficiency of disassembly and recycling. One method supports the design of new products for ease of recycling while the other one supports the planning of robust recycling systems
