Remanufacturing and the circular economy
Remanufacturing allows us to use product components again at high quality while reducing energy demand by - in some cases - 80%. Given the material constraints we face, why this is not happening at a wider scale? In this episode, **Nabil Nasr** puts forward what he sees as the issues holding back remanufacturing. Nabil Nasr is Associate Provost for Academic Affairs and Director of the Golisano Institute for Sustainability at Rochester Institute of Technology; he is also founder of the Centre for Remanufacturing and Resource Recovery. _This podcast series presented by Colin Webster explores the recently published book [A New Dynamic 2: Effective systems in a circular economy.](http://www.ellenmacarthurfoundation.org/publications/a-new-dynamic-2) Each programme features an interview with authors of the book’s chapters. These leading experts on architecture, agriculture, design, business or engineering, provide unique insights that reflect on the necessity to develop a whole-system approach to re-think our economy._
