Abstract

See full text

System and method optimize recyclability of an electronic device during manufacturing design A manufacturing design software produces engineering bill of materials, manufacturing bill of materials, and bill of process for the manufacturing design. Recycling process plan engine constructs a recycling process plan for the electronic device according to the manufacturing design. A virtual model of recycling processes is constructed by mapping needed skills to corresponding recycling equipment using a library of recycling equipment information. Recycling process plan engine uses the virtual model to simulate the recycling plan and optimizes each recycling process, and the overall sequence of recycling processes, according to an objective function. Evaluator module receives key performance indicator values from a virtual model simulation and calculates the value of the objective function based on key performance indicators. Recycling plan is optimized by iteration of simulating the process and varying parameters to most improve the objective function.
