TLDR
In this paper, the authors presented a production, remanufacture and waste disposal EPQ model under different carbon regulatory mechanisms of a firm that sells new and repaired versions of its product at two different markets and it is assumed that remanufactured items are of poorer quality; i.e., not "as-good-as new".Abstract:
Industries across the world today are looking for cost effective solutions to reduce waste and curb the carbon emission, due to heightened awareness about ecological responsibility coupled with stringent government regulation and legislations, through operational adjustments in manufacturing/remanufacturing and collection (used products) policy. This paper presents a production, remanufacture and waste disposal EPQ model under different carbon regulatory mechanisms of a firm that sells new and repaired versions of its product at two different markets and it is assumed that remanufactured items are of poorer quality; i.e., not ’as-good-as new’. In reality, the return rates of used product from the end customers of both markets are influenced by the purchasing price, and therefore this study suggests that the return flow of used product as an increasing function of purchasing price. We studied the optimization model under two scenarios: (i) no carbon emission policy (ii) carbon emission norms (a. carbon tax; b. strict carbon cap; c. carbon cap and trade). Mathematical modeling followed by numerical analysis is carried out to examine the impact of regulatory policies on optimal decisions and overall emissions. The results indicate that remanufacturing is an effective strategy to decrease carbon emission compared to manufacturing process.read more

Optimal location and value of timely sorting of used items in a remanufacturing supply chain with multiple collection sites
TL;DR: A supply chain consisting of a central remanufacturing facility and a number of collection sites is studied, obtaining the optimal parameters of the replenishment policy under each one of the three possible system configurations: no sorting, central sorting and local sorting.

TL;DR: In this paper, a closed-loop supply chain model consisting of a single manufacturer, single retailer, and single collector under various coordination scenarios is developed, where used products collected by the collector are sorted so that products categorized as recoverable will be sold to the manufacturer.

A hybrid carbon policy inventory model with emission source-based green investments
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed a production-inventory system with hybrid carbon regulation policy, which is a combination of carbon tax and cap-and-trade policies, and found the optimum values of the production run time, green investments and the selling price.

Application of optimization methods in the closed-loop supply chain: a literature review
TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive literature review was carried out on 354 papers published from January 2008 to October 2020 to find future directions involving closed-loop supply chain optimization, which was found stochastic methods are the primary approach in the studies regarding CLSC optimization, being applied in 27.68% of the publications investigated.

Green supply chain network design with stochastic demand and carbon price
TL;DR: A two-stage stochastic programming model to design a green supply chain in a carbon trading environment is presented and it is found that the supply chain configuration can be highly sensitive to the probability distribution of the carbon credit price.
