Estimation of cost and CO2 emissions with a sustainable cross-border supply chain in the automobile industry: A case study of Thailand and neighboring countries

The effective practices of mobile phone producers' green supply chain management in reducing GHG emissions

“…GHG 2 is the name given to indirect GHG emissions from the direct billing of electricity in a company's owned or Not many studies have reported all types of GHG emissions in detail. Most studies have reported GHG 1 (Bazan, Jaber, & Zanoni, 2015;Jaber, Glock, & El Saadany, 2013) or GHG 3 (Blanco, Caro, & Corbett, 2016;Elhedhli, & Merrick, 2012;Haddadsisakht & Ryan, 2018) or both, without differentiating between GHG indicators (e.g., Coskun, Ozgur, Polat, & Gungor, 2016;Egilmez et al, 2014;Huang et al, 2016;Nakamichi et al, 2016;Zhang et al, 2014). As for GHG 2 emissions, most previous studies have not given clear accounts of them.…”

“…The surveyed actions in supplier relationship management were the number of different components supplied (Huang et al, 2016) and the number of suppliers (Blanco et al, 2016). The actions in the order fulfillment process (manufacturing) that were surveyed were the location of manufacturers (Nakamichi et al, 2016), the modules of the product line (Huang et al, 2016), manufacturer production rates (Bazan et al, 2015), the capacity of production processes (Azadeh, Raoofi, & Zarrin, 2015;Zhang et al, 2014), processing time (Zhang et al, 2014), and the number of facilities opened (Haddadsisakht & Ryan, 2018).…”

“…Logistics management actions were related to the locations of suppliers (Nakamichi et al, 2016), the length of the transportation routes (Azadeh et al, 2015;Elhedhli & Merrick, 2012;Nakamichi et al, 2016) or the distances between suppliers, manufacturers, and customers (Huang et al, 2016;Zhang et al, 2014), the mode of transportation and number of vehicles (Haddadsisakht & Ryan, 2018;Huang et al, 2016;Nakamichi et al, 2016), the number of shipments in a manufacturer's cycle (Bazan et al, 2015), and the capacity of distribution centers (Elhedhli & Merrick, 2012;Jaber et al, 2013). Actions in managing the customer relationship were the size of customer demand (Azadeh et al, 2015;Huang et al, 2016) or the size of customer orders (Zhang et al, 2014).…”

“…The studies of logistics, transportation, and distribution management revealed that in the automobile industry, maritime transportation generates a huge amount of emissions, resulting from the space occupied by cargoes of cars (Nakamichi et al, 2016). A more environmentally friendly transportation mode is employed for the lowvalue components of air-conditioner products (Huang et al, 2016).…”

“…Despite the significant environmental impact of smartphones, most previous studies have investigated other areas, such as the food industry (e.g., Egilmez, Kucukvar, Tatari, & Bhutta, ), the automobile industry (e.g., Nakamichi, Hanaoka, & Kawahara, ), air‐conditioner producers (e.g., Huang, Wang, Zhang, & Pang, ), electronics in general (e.g., Belkhir & Elmeligi, ; Hsu, Kuo, Chen, & Hu, ), and the chemical industry (Zhang, Shah, Wassick, Helling, & Van Egerschot, ). Few studies have investigated the environmental impact of producing mobile phones (e.g., Migdadi, , 2016; Suckling & Lee, ; Belkhir & Elmeligi, ).…”
