Key measures of SM associated with RL practices
| Key Measure | Short description of relevant RL practice/s (remanufacturing, redesign, recover, reuse and reduce) with supporting reference/s | |
|---|---|---|
| Economic dimension | Usage/Cost of Raw materials | Redesign to reduce components [1], process design to reduce/eliminate hazardous materials [2] |
| Recycling of materials to reduce consumption of virgin materials [1] [3] | ||
| Reuse of materials within the product to reduce virgin material/s [1], reusing packaging to reduce raw materials [4] | ||
| Reduce the use of raw materials by maintaining the product characteristics [4] | ||
| Energy consumption/Cost | Remanufacturing process, supported by IoT-based energy management system reduces energy use [5] | |
| Products can be redesigned to reduce energy consumption [6] | ||
| Recycled plastics consumed less energy with optimised processes [7] | ||
| Reuse of components of significantly high PUV can reduce energy consumption [1] | ||
| Reduce energy consumption using advanced technologies such as I4.0 [8] | ||
| Environmental dimension | Waste (Energy, materials, water) generation | Re-manufacturability offers an opportunity for resource conservation [9] and enables lower waste and emissions [10] |
| Sustainable design reduces waste by extending its life through reuse [9] | ||
| Recovery of products through waste management reduces the need for raw materials [4] | ||
| Recycling of materials mitigates the negative environmental impact [9] | ||
| Reuse of products reduces waste and minimises product's adverse environmental impact [9] | ||
| CO2 emission | Recycling reduces the amount of greenhouse gases emitted from some materials in manufacturing processes [10] | |
| RL implementation limits waste and reduces CO2 emissions [11] | ||
| Social dimension | Level of social acceptability | Sustainable manufacturing, with stakeholder involvement, increases product acceptability [12] |
| Improvements in product lifespan through redesign enhance social acceptability [9] | ||
| Recycling of products increases social acceptability [9] | ||
| Recycling helps preserve the environment for future generations [11] | ||
| Health and safety issues | Sustainable manufacturing and RL practices contribute to safer products and working environments, benefiting both consumers and employees [13] | |
| Recover and reuse of e-waste products and banning the use of certain substances require regulations and compliance [4] | ||
| Recycling reduces open landfills and thereby has less impact on health and the environment [3] |
