Especially, extending life time of whole products or parts via remanufacturing is an promising approach to reduce waste. However, necessary cost-efficient assessment of the condition of the individual parts is challenging and assessment procedures are technically complex (e.g., scanning and testing procedures). Furthermore, these assessment procedures are usually only available after the disassembly process has been completed. This is where conceptualization, data acquisition and simulation of remanufacturing processes can help. One major constraining aspect of remanufacturing is reducing logistic efforts, since these also have negative external effects on the environment. Thus regionalization is an additional but in the end consequential challenge for remanufacturing. This article aims to fill a gap by providing an regional remanufacturing approach, in particular the design of local remanufacturing chains. Thereby, further focus lies on modeling and simulating alternative courses of action, including feasibility study and eco-nomic assessment.<\/p>\n<div class=\"gito-pub-tags-social-share\" style=\"display:flex;justify-content:space-between;\"><div>Tags: <span class=\"gito-pub-tag-element\"><a href=\"\/tag\/regional-network\/\">Regional network<\/a><\/span> <span class=\"gito-pub-tag-element\"><a href=\"\/tag\/remanufacturing\/\">remanufacturing<\/a><\/span> <span class=\"gito-pub-tag-element\"><a href=\"\/tag\/scenario-modeling\/\">Scenario modeling<\/a><\/span> <\/div><div><div class=\"social-icons share-icons share-row relative\" ><a href=\"whatsapp:\/\/send?text=A%20regional%20remanufacturing%20network%20approach%20%26%238211%3B%20Modeling%20and%20simulation%20of%20circular%20economy%20processes%20in%20the%20era%20of%20Industry%204.0 - https:\/\/industry-science.com\/en\/book\/wgab22-8_gronau\/\" data-action=\"share\/whatsapp\/share\" class=\"icon button circle is-outline tooltip whatsapp show-for-medium\" title=\"Share on WhatsApp\" aria-label=\"Share on WhatsApp\"><i class=\"icon-whatsapp\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/industry-science.com\/en\/book\/wgab22-8_gronau\/\" data-label=\"Facebook\" onclick=\"window.open(this.href,this.title,'width=500,height=500,top=300px,left=300px'); return false;\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"icon button circle is-outline tooltip facebook\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" aria-label=\"Share on Facebook\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><i class=\"icon-facebook\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/share?url=https:\/\/industry-science.com\/en\/book\/wgab22-8_gronau\/\" onclick=\"window.open(this.href,this.title,'width=500,height=500,top=300px,left=300px'); return false;\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"icon button circle is-outline tooltip x\" title=\"Share on X\" aria-label=\"Share on X\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><i class=\"icon-x\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><a href=\"mailto:?subject=A%20regional%20remanufacturing%20network%20approach%20%26%238211%3B%20Modeling%20and%20simulation%20of%20circular%20economy%20processes%20in%20the%20era%20of%20Industry%204.0&body=Check%20this%20out%3A%20https%3A%2F%2Findustry-science.com%2Fen%2Fbook%2Fwgab22-8_gronau%2F\" class=\"icon button circle is-outline tooltip email\" title=\"Email to a Friend\" aria-label=\"Email to a Friend\" rel=\"nofollow\"><i class=\"icon-envelop\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https:\/\/industry-science.com\/en\/book\/wgab22-8_gronau\/&title=A%20regional%20remanufacturing%20network%20approach%20%26%238211%3B%20Modeling%20and%20simulation%20of%20circular%20economy%20processes%20in%20the%20era%20of%20Industry%204.0\" onclick=\"window.open(this.href,this.title,'width=500,height=500,top=300px,left=300px'); return false;\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"icon button circle is-outline tooltip linkedin\" title=\"Share on LinkedIn\" aria-label=\"Share on LinkedIn\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><i class=\"icon-linkedin\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><hr style=\"margin-top:0px;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Manufacturing companies still have relatively few points of contact with the circular economy.
