Abstract

While metallic fractions in the automotive industry have been the subject of significant and successful research, the recycling of plastics in vehicles is less well understood and is now vital to the success of effective automotive recycling, according to legislative requirements. Moreover, it is a critical challenge given the difficulty of plastic identification, the low technical level of logistics processes, and the lack of availability of historical information on plastics. This paper introduces RFID system, which helps to automatically identify, record, transmit and search product information throughout the product lifecycle. This research produces a feasible solution for decision support in a case study of automotive plastic recycling, using an RFID-based information management framework in the product lifecycle.
