Abstract
This paper develops an optimal allocation procedure for the disassembled components of electronic equipment. It also reviews and discusses the reuse options available to high-tech companies when it comes to disassembly. A piecewise linear concave program is formulated to find the optimal disassembly strategy. The model is then applied to actual data from an electronics manufacturer. It is concluded that the landfill option, the most undesirable option available to most manufacturers, can be avoided if the manufacturer can find other options with non-negative returns.
