Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

  • Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
  • For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

4.3.1 Decision for Remanufacturing. How to ensure sustainability

Course subject(s) Module 4: Remanufacturing

In this video Ester van der Voet teach us how to assess the sustainability performance of remanufacturing, possible gains and tradeoffs. She also describes the importance of a holistic view when it comes to decision making.

Now you have learned more about how to ensure that the remanufacturing really leads to sustainability. Depending on the situation, for example, the need for transports, or the energy consumption, there might be other solutions even better from a sustainability point of view.
