End-of-Life Management
End-of-Life Management involves planning and handling the disposal, recycling, or reuse of products, equipment, or materials once they are no longer useful or functional. Its goal is to minimize environmental impact, conserve resources, and ensure safety. This process includes proper waste segregation, environmentally responsible disposal methods, and sometimes repurposing or refurbishing items. Effective end-of-life management is essential for sustainable practices, reducing pollution, and complying with regulations. It applies across various industries—from electronics to vehicles—helping balance industry needs with environmental protection and public health considerations.
