| Abstract |
Remanufacturing is an effective resource recycling approach that reproduces the used products to the same quality level of the new products through a systematic process. The remanufacturing of construction equipment reduces the negative impacts on of the environment while ensuring sustainable productivity at low cost. In this study, LCA was implemented to analyze the environmental impacts including reduction of greenhouse gases and resources in remanufactured construction equipment parts. In addition, we analyzed the economic benefits of remanufacturing for the major parts of the construction equipment such as hydraulic cylinders, decelerators etc. In addition, life cycle impact assessment was assessed about human health and ecosystem destruction impact categories by applying an end-point methodology. The results of this study can be used as basic data for evaluating the environmental and economic efficiency of remanufactured construction equipment parts. (C) 2019 The Authors.
