Abstract
Reusing is one of the most environmentally friendly recycling methods. For the economical remanufacturing of used cellular phone, the cellular phones should be design for easy disassembly. In this paper, we analyzed the components and connecting elements of cellular phones and developed a guideline for the design of the cellular phones. A software for the disassembly assessment was also developed. Redesigned cellular phone by the developed guideline and its original phone was analyzed by the disassembly assessment software. Disassembly time could be reduced about 40% and reusing rate could be improved about 37%.
