Outline of Final Research Achievements

Product remanufacturing is effective for energy saving, material saving, and fostering material circulation of product manufacturing. While in many developed countries such as in the US and European countries, remanufacturing has been promoted actively by industries, academia, and the governments, the practices in Japan are relatively undeveloped. In this study, we investigated the status quo of remanufacturing practices in Japan and in other countries, and addressed the requrements for remanufacturing to be successful in the market. Based on the insights on the requirements, a simulation model for remanufactured product markets was developed. In addition, a product life cycle model to estimate the future demands for remanufactured products by referring to the time series sales data was developed. The model was applied to data of an auto parts remanufacturing company, and the effectivenss of the model was investigated.
