How Would Nature Do It?
• Not like us!• Systems and cycles• Waste = food• Cradle to Cradle• Biomimetic

New Materials Paradigm
• Minimize extraction
• Maximize reuse
• Repurpose by design
• Learn to re: ‘cycle’– Up-cycling– Down-cycling
Re- ‘Cycle’
Reduce
Reuse Repurpose

Remaking the Way We make Things
![Page 8: Re: (Thinking) Manufacturing](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062418/55504d79b4c9058f768b5294/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Cradle to Cradle
• Roundtrip materials use – ‘end-to-end’
• Manufactured using a minimum of new (virgin) material
• Mandated demanufacturing and recovery of existing material
![Page 9: Re: (Thinking) Manufacturing](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062418/55504d79b4c9058f768b5294/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Waste => Food
• Material waste is the driver of more extraction, more energy use, and more pollution to the environment.
• Deconstruction and reuse is the ‘natural cycle’ approach.

Single Use Batteries
Remote controls, toys, flashlights, smoke detectors—these are just some of the products that require batteries in our daily lives. Over three billion dry cell batteries are sold each year in the U.S. Because batteries disposed of in municipal landfills and trash incinerators can disperse significant amounts of heavy metals and other toxic substances into the air and water, battery waste prevention and recycling strategies are essential.

Material Scarcity
• Declining metal / mineral production across the globe
• Increasing energy to extract metals from lower grade ore
• Competition for scarcer resources
![Page 14: Re: (Thinking) Manufacturing](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062418/55504d79b4c9058f768b5294/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Recycling as an Ethic
• Plastic• Glass• Metal• Paper• Biowaste• Cardboard• Batteries• E-waste• Organs

• Up-cycling– Adding value
• Re-cycling– Preserving value

The Green Cycles
• Recycling is processing used materials into new products, which results in less waste of potentially useful materials, less consumption of fresh raw materials, less energy usage and less water and air pollution.
• Precycling is thinking ahead before you buy. This can reduce the buildup of waste, items to landfills and even can save you money.
• Freecycling is giving away items for free instead of throwing them away. A great reusing network can be created.
• Upcycling is creating useful items from recycled material. This results in less waste and even can save money through reusing and not having to buy again.
• Downcycling is reusing or recycling of a product for an alternative lesser-quality purpose to keep it out of landfills or elsewhere.
• E-cycling is the recycling of electronics. E-cycling helps to prevent some e-waste such as lead, mercury, cadmium and other toxins to enter the environment.

Extended Producer Responsibility
• OEM ‘take it back’– Cradle to grave approach– Efficient ‘reintegration’
• Pooled take-back (consortia)– Leverage best practice– Develop economies of scale
• Third party (vendor) – Specialists– Industrial ecosystems

Toner Cartridges
• Most are recycled
• Ten lives or more
• Copiers may someday be ‘downcycled’

Demanufacturing• Demanufacturing is the disassembly
and recycling of obsolete consumer products. The goal is to remove and recycle every component in an appliance. For example, the motherboard and metal parts of a computer are smelted and the metals are recovered. The TV tube in the monitor is recycled and turned into a new TV tube. The computers plastic housing is recovered and turned into new computer housings. The goal of the process is to reuse all of the materials that make up the computer, not throw them away.

Biomimetic Process• Waste = Food• Self-assemble, from the ground up• Evolve solutions, don't plan them• Relentlessly adjust to the here & now• Cooperate AND compete, not just one or the other• Diversify to fill every niche• Gather energy & materials efficiently• Optimize the system rather than maximizing components• The whole is greater than the sum of its parts--design for swarm• Use minimal energy & materials "Don’t foul your nest“• Organize fractally• Chemical reactions should be in water at normal temperature & pressure• Vogel's mechanical-engineering-specific principles

Organ Recycling - Reuse
• There are things which cannot be (re)manufactured (at least not yet).
• Be a blood donor
• Be an organ donor
• Realize the living potential of reuse

The Road Ahead
• Nanomanufacturing
• Human reassembly
• Continuous redesign
• Like software
• Biomimicry
