Abstract

Product recycling will become more important in the future to meet the needs of a growing industry. The challenge is to combine this heterogeneous information flows and establish a way for a holistic life cycle management in the circular economy. Therefore, this contribution proposes an automated and data-driven architecture of connecting all the stakeholders to exchange (life cycle) data in order to foster transition towards a circular economy. A general framework is implemented and evaluated on the example of an electric vehicle battery.
