Abstract
To construct the Sustainable Society, the importance of consideration to 3R (Reduce , Reuse , Recycle) in the design phase increases in various industrial products. Concerning Reuse and Recycle, the improvement of the disassembly property is important. Then we develop the quantity disassembly property assessment method Disassembly Property Index (DPI), one of the DfE (Design for Environment) supporting tool. In this paper, we used E2-PA to assess environmental load of Domestic Appliances by paying attention to rare metals and explain recycling expense calculating tool which can assess recycling process economically and environmentally by using DPI.
