Abstract :
Product Life-Cycle Management (PLCM) starts when the idea of a product is born and lasts until complete dismissal through steps as requirements, analysis, design, part manufacturing, assembly, testing, diagnostics and operation, advertisement, service, maintenance, etc. Sustainable development or sustainability means - among others - to use as little materials, energy and water as possible. Our topics are EOL car dismantling and then re-cycling, re-use, or remake versus dismissal. These will be evaluated as product lifecycle phases, and numerical values will be assigned to them to see losses and/or profits accompanying the PLC.
