碩士 === 國立中央大學 === 工業管理研究所 === 105 === In recent decades, consumer electronics have been quite popular. The previous designers often emphasized the demands of market, appearance, and functions, but ignored the environmental pollution caused by the excessive components; moreover, the shortening of product life cycle and rapidly changing consumer market made the electronic wastes increase constantly and had an enormous impact on environment. Thus, except for the relevant environmental regulations ruled by government and enterprise, we ought to deal carefully with electronic wastes, thereby promoting the global industry, enterprise, and even the consumer can fulfill the responsibility for earth protection. In order to solve the above problems, this research is going to focus on smartphone; and use Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) approach based on Design for Environment (DfE) knowledge. Meanwhile, in the inventory analysis stage of LCA, we calculate the Input-Output as well as doing the classification and characterization in impact analysis stage. After that, we use Analytic Network Process (ANP) methodology to analyze the decision-making index, importance, and priority for several environmental impact factors on product development, and then provides an optimal decision for the product designers.
