This Special Issue is a collaboration between the World Remanufacturing Summit and Journal of Remanufacturing. The summit focus on discussions on key topics like implications of the Digital Product Passport (DPP) for Remanufacturing, Zero Defect Remanufacturing, Emerging Remanufacturing Technologies, Artificial Intelligence in remanufacturing and many others, across multiple industrial sectors. 

This special issue seeks to establish a collaborative platform for researchers from various academic domains worldwide, including manufacturing, operations research, system engineering, environmental engineering, economics, and other interdisciplinary fields. The overarching goal is to promote the implementation of manufacturing planning methods, hence driving the transition to a circular economy.
