For environmentally conscious and sustainable manufacturing, many more manufacturers are acting to recycle and remanufacture their post-consumed products. The most critical process of remanufacturing is disassembly, since it allows for the selective extraction of the valuable components and materials from returned products to reduce the waste disposal volume. It is, therefore, important to desi...

This paper investigates the effect of reward-penalty mechanism in a closed-loop supply chain with manufacturer, distributor and third party under technology licensing carbon constraints. There remanufacturing scenarios are developed, namely (1) manufacturer is engaged activities, (2) subcontracts to conduct remanufacturing, (3) undertakes manufacturer's authorization. We apply Stackelberg game ...

Spiral bevel gears are manufactured and used in pairs. When one part usually pinion fatigued, the pair will be replaced. It inevitably leads to a waste of resources time. To solve this phenomenon, method remanufacture with ease-off topology modification is proposed. First, wheel were measured fitting tooth surface, then conjugate surface was derived. Secondly, an superimposed improve mesh perfo...

The urge to remanufacture and address environmental concerns in various industrial processes has drawn the attention of academics as well practitioners towards Closed-loop Supply Chain Networks (CLSC). Although everchanging complex external factors including social economic ones, adversely impact sustainable development closed-loop supply chain networks. basic aim research is optimize functioni...

Collecting and remanufacturing worn-out products provide significant financial advantages. In this research, we examine how ball gate valves, which are important pieces of equipment in the oil gas industry, could improve profitability closed-loop supply chain. regard, four different scenarios for collecting processes considered: (1) manufacturer collects product from consumers remanufactures th...

This paper presents a methodological proposal that integrates the circular economy concept and financial valuation through real options analysis. The Value Hill model of provides representation course followed by value an asset. Specifically, after primary use, life asset may be extended going four phases: 4R phases (Reuse, Refurbish, Remanufacture Recycle). Financial allows us to quantify crea...

W e consider an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) who faces competition from an independent remanufacturer (IR). The OEM decides the quality of the new product, which also determines the quality of the competing remanufactured product. The OEM and the IR then competitively determine their production quantities. We explicitly characterize how the OEM competes with the IR in equilibrium. Spec...

In recent years, the market of electric vehicles (EVs) has developed rapidly across world, and recycling a large number their spent power batteries become an urgent challenge today. The resulting closed-loop supply chain (CLSC) have been considerably studied under different aspects. However, there is lack research investigating vehicle (EVBs) network design uncertainty. This paper focuses on is...
