Abstract: Due to awareness of the product life cycle’s impact on the environment, manufacturers have started to embrace the concept of resource recovery systems as an intermediate solution to the environmental problem. The disassembly process is the main stage in recycling of the manufactured products. Disassembly promotes reuse, recycling, material and energetical recovery. It needs advanced control and real-time decision making schemes. In this article, the authors aim at surveying several state-of the art solutions of robotized disassembly cells.

Keywords: Decision trees, electronic equipment recycling, flexible manufacturing cells, models, Petri nets, real-time.
