Abstract
Internet of Things (IoT) can help in weighing in products’ designs for recovery when they are returned at their end of lives. Devices such as Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags and sensors can be embedded in products to store and collect information and determine their conditions at the end of their lives, which can then be used to choose a rational recovery process amongst disassembly, remanufacturing, recycling and disposal. This paper suggests an advanced system which collects device embedded products at the end of their lives to satisfy various products, components and materials requirements. The system identifies favorable design(s) for disassembly or remanufacturing based on three criteria viz., total profit, quality level and the number of disposed items. A method involving Linear Physical Programming (LPP) is used to formulate the problem. An example involving cell phones is used to illustrate the proposed methodology.
