The use of embedded smart sensors in products to monitor and register information associated with the products, e.g., their state-of-health, remaining service life, remanufacturing history, etc., has shown positive impact on product remanufacturing decision-making. This paper reviews the challenges and issues of using smart sensors pertaining to different phases of a product life-cycle, e.g., design, manufacture, distribution, service, remanufacture, and disposal phases. These issues are investigated considering the views of the manufacturers/remanufacturers, distributors and endusers. A conceptual framework for product remanufacturing decision-making is proposed based on the information gathered using smart sensors.
