“…For a possibility space (ϕ, p, P os), a regular fuzzy variableξ is defined as a measurable map from ϕ to [0,1] in the sense that for every t ∈ [0, 1], one has {γ ∈ ϕ |ξ(γ) ≤ t} ∈ p. A discrete RFV is represented asξ ∼ r 1 , r 2 · · · r n µ 1 , µ 2 · · · µ n where r i ∈ [0, 1] and µ i > 0, ∀i and…”

A sustainable fuzzy economic production quantity (SFEPQ) inventory model is formulated by introducing the concept of fuzzy differential equation (FDE) due to dynamic behavior of the production-demand system. Generalized Hukuhara (gH) differentiability proceedure is applied to solve FDE. Since the demand parameter is taken as trapezoidal type-2 fuzzy number, to get corresponding defuzzified values, first critical value (CV)-based reduction method is applied on demand function to transfer into type-1 fuzzy variable which turns to hexagonal fuzzy number in form. After that α-cut of a hexagonal fuzzy number is used to find the upper and lower value of demand. To apply the α-cut operation on FDE, we divided the interval [0,1] into two sub-intervals [0,0.5] and [0.5,1] and gH-differentiation is applied on this sub-intervals. The objective of this paper is to maximize the profit and simultaneously minimize the carbon emission cost occurring due to the process of inventory management. Finally, the non-linear objective functions are solved by using of multi-objective genetic algorithm and sensitivity analyses on various parameters are also performed in numerically and graphically.

“…The problem is that a large investment has to be made to improve those polluting technologies. Another alternative to reduce emissions is the joint consideration of delays in payments for those polluting companies [35]. These authors showed that the optimization of the production rate, the duration of the delay in payments or the size of the batch provides the optimal solution for carbon emissions and the cost of a supply chain system.…”

Vehicles Allocation for Fruit Distribution Considering CO2 Emissions and Decisions on Subcontracting

2018

An important problem in rural-area supply chains is how to transport the harvested fruit to urban areas. Low-and medium-capacity vehicles are used in Colombia to carry out this activity. Operating them comes with an inherent cost and generates carbon emissions. Normally, minimizing operating costs and minimizing carbon emissions are conflicting objectives to allocate such vehicles efficiently in any of the supply chain echelons. We designed a multi-objective mixed-integer programming model to address this problem and solved it via the ε-constraint method. It includes decisions mainly about quantities of fruit to transport and store, types of vehicles to allocate according to their capacities, CO 2 emission levels of these vehicles, and subcontracting on the collection process. The main results show two schedules for allocating the vehicles, showing minimum and maximum CO 2 emissions. Minimum CO 2 emissions scheme require subcontracting and the maximum CO 2 scheme does not. Then, a Pareto frontier shows that CO 2 emissions level are inversely proportional to total management cost for different scenarios in which fruit supply was modified.

“…Especially for the period of defending the United State hegemony, the combination of finance and green technology may be a solution [27]. There are studies also trying to use financial ways to encourage people to widen the finance resource, for example, Aljazzar [28] says that adopting delays-in-payments enhances both environmental and economic performance in a low carbon supply chain with a cap-and-trade scheme through adjusting the parameters, including production rate, length of delay in payments, and so on, in profit equilibrium, the optimal ratio between decided variables could be solved and this flexibility makes the model easy to try in practice. On the contrary, Peng [29] proposed an advance payment with a risk compensation (APRC) mechanism where, in the process of trading, the distributor finances the payment and, correspondingly, the supplier provides a price discount.…”

For reliving the pressure of air pollution and corresponding the sustainability development policy in China, the companies are urging the creation of a highly productive low-carbon supply chain. This work uses price regulation, the cap-and-trade model, and a green financial policy background to establish a strategy for the coal-electric power supply chain with two-level carbon reduction and operation with financial constraints. A Stackelberg model was built to help investigate the rate of thermal order realization, the carbon reduction strategy in the coal enterprise, and the amount of thermal energy ordered in the electric enterprise. Results show that under a green financial background, a high bank loan discount rate for investing in carbon reduction technology equates to large carbon reduction in coal enterprises, large quantities of thermal energy ordered in electric enterprises, and high profit for coal and electric enterprises. However, the realization rate of thermal power ordered decreased when the price regulation become strict, thereby reducing the profit and carbon emission in electric enterprise. Therefore, the thermal price regulation level increased, the profit on both company and the production did not respond with sensitivity, and the government could encourage a low carbon model by controlling the bank loan rate.Sustainability 2019, 11, 3021 2 of 17 2008, different kinds of toxic gas such as sulfur, arsenic, fluorine, and mercury emissions rose sharply, caused by domestic coal burning. However, oppositely, the quantity of emissions from coal-fired power plants decreased [2]. From the above data, the environment problems due to the domestic coal burning in rural communities have been paid attention to, and the control on air pollution should have been put forward. Due to the harsh environment situation, the scholars attempted to solve environmental pollution, and the future research fields should focus on how to improve the technology of reducing carbon emission while preventing costs from increasing, in practice, environment-friendly ideas that are widely spread and accepted [3].The amount of thermal power was kept at a high level and was enough, and the need for coal products decreased remarkably in the coal trade market. Consequently, the country also introduced clean energy, the resource of electric power mostly originated from "green" or "clean" energy, for example, wind power, nuclear power, and water power. The amount of carbon emission reduction from global electric power, including heat power, accounted for 40% of the total global percentage [4]. In our country, the electric power resource is restrained by the limitations of the Earth's power resource. Most of the electric power is transferred from coal products, the coal-electric power channel being one of the important supply chains in the electric power market, and thermal being the main electric power supplier. The portion accounts for more than 70%, and the consumption of the coal products accounts for half of the total of the entire...
