Remanufacturing System: Characterizing the Reverse Supply Chain
نویسندگان
چکیده
End-of-life strategies, such as remanufacturing, have gained ground in order to promote product reuse, reduce environmental impacts and costs, as well as to win new markets. The remanufacturing process preserves part of the product’s raw materials and added value during its manufacturing. This study addresses the system that includes remanufacturing in order to understand it and to define its elements, as well as to characterize the supply chain that permeates and leads to the effective functioning of this system. To this end, a Systematic Literature Review on remanufacturing was conducted. Moreover, the RS proposed was based on the General Systems Theory.

Optimizing a reverse supply chain including transportation, operation, maintenance and remanufacturing costs
Reverse supply chain is a process dealing with the backward flows of used/damaged products or materials. Reverse supply chain includes activities such as collection, inspection, reprocess, disposal and redistribution. A well-organized reverse supply chain can provide important advantages such as economic and environmental ones. In this study, we propose a general framework and formulate a m...
متن کاملQuantitative models for determining prices in a remanufacturing system with exclusive and competitive market structure
Remanufacturing is an industrial process that makes used products reusable. Remanufacturing is a way to establish a closed-loop supply chain. One of the important aspects in both reverse logistics and remanufacturing is pricing of returned and remanufactured products (called cores) that it has been noticed in this paper. In addition, in this paper the researchers have tried to present a mathema...
متن کاملDesign of An Integrated Robust Optimization Model for Closed-Loop Supply Chain and supplier and remanufacturing subcontractor selection
The development of optimization and mathematical models for closed loop supply chain (CLSC) design has attracted considerable interest over the past decades. However, the uncertainties that are inherent in the network design are challenging the capabilities of the developed tools. In CLSC Uncertainty in demand is major source of uncertainty. The aim of this paper, therefore, is to present a Rob...
متن کاملA Mixed Integer Linear Programming Model for the Design of Remanufacturing Closed–loop Supply Chain Network
Closed-loop supply chain network design is a critical issue due to its impact on both economic and environmental performances of the supply chain. In this paper, we address the problem of designing a multi-echelon, multi-product and capacitated closed-loop supply chain network. First, a mixed-integer linear programming formulation is developed to maximize the total profit. The main contribution...
متن کاملSystem Dynamics modelling of a production and inventory system for remanufacturing to evaluate system improvement strategies
Remanufacturing activity views the reverse supply chain of reclaimed goods as integral to the traditional supply chain to the consumer. At the end of the useful life of products, a reverse supply process is activated in which unwanted materials and products are recovered from end users to recapture some of their value. Therefore, planning for the traditional supply chain of goods must take into...
