EN Modelling of the remanufacturing process is challenging. The flows of materials are not, as transparent as in the primary production process. The logic of the remanufacturing process requires that products are disassembled and after reprocessing they are reassembled. Not all components and materials can be fully recovered and some of them need to be replaced. The literature on remanufacturing process modelling using simulation approach is very limited. In this chapter we present how a simulation can be used to model remanufacturing process. Moreover we propose set of indicators which allow assessing the environmental, economic and social impact of different variants of remanufacturing process organization.
