Abstract
Recently, in order to shift to Sustainable Society, it is required for products' parts to be used long-term. Therefore, we aim to prove the effectiveness for the protection of the environment and the resource by promoting reuse parts. In this study, from this point of view, we promote reuse parts in the case of recycling of End-of-Life Vehicle (ELY). In this report, we assess quantitatively the environmental load of manufacture of reuse parts by Eco-Efficiency Potential Assessment (E2-PA), our own assessment method. Concretely, we compared the environmental load of reuse parts, new parts and recycling parts. As a result, we show the case of reuse parts reduce environmental load in 90% or more compared to the case of new parts. We also proposed the guideline for the promotion of the using reuse parts and improvement of ELV's recycling.
