Plastic recycling in Business Machines
Proceedings of the 1993 IEEE International Symposium on Electronics and the Environment, 1993Co-Authors: S. Ching, J.r. Kirby, O.d. PittsAbstract:A process was developed and implemented for the recovery and recycling of plastics from end-of-life IBM products into new IBM products. In general, the economics for this type of recycling, closed loop, has the greatest potential for achieving profitability. In addition to keeping the plastic out of the landfill, product material cost is reduced and there is no expense for plastics disposal. Factors affecting the recyclability and value of recovered plastics were identified and examined. These factors included the type and amount of plastic involved, the type and degree of contamination, the difficulty in removing contaminates, and the potential end-use application. Considerations from these studies supporting the technical and economic feasibility of establishing a plastic recovery process are discussed. >

Resource recovery strategies for end-of-life Business Machines
Proceedings of 1994 IEEE International Symposium on Electronics and The Environment, 1994Co-Authors: J.r. Kirby, D. PittsAbstract:This paper identifies the critical aspects of an effective resource recovery strategy for computer equipment and highlights common issues which should be resolved if an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of computer equipment is to undertake product take back. The roles of procurement, development, manufacturing, and marketing are also described as they interact with recovery centers to increase their effectiveness and financial performance. An overview is provided of a typical recovery center operation to reduce end-of-life Machines and manufacturing scrap to raw material streams which can be recycled into new products or sold into noncomputer applications.

Designing Business Machines for disassembly and recycling
Proceedings of the 1993 IEEE International Symposium on Electronics and the Environment, 1993Co-Authors: J.r. Kirby, I.l. WadehraAbstract:Important DFE (design for environment) factors that should be considered in the design of plastic parts for disassembly and recycling are identified and discussed. The discussion includes a review of the materials selection process; design concepts for plastic parts including wall thickness, drafts and radii, bosses, ribs, and inserts; fastening and joining; decorative coatings; conductive materials and platings and coatings; and marking and labeling of parts. The environmentally conscious attributes in a personal computer product presently in the market are also examined. >
