“…e level of green innovation of the manufacturer and the promotion strategy of the retailer is considered. Ding et al [14] examined the pricing, purchasing, and collecting decisions of manufacturers and retailers using a CLSC framework consisting of a manufacturer and two competing retailers, in which the retailer performs the collecting. e results show that the higher the wholesale price, the less active the retailer's collecting activity.…”

In the current context of resource scarcity and increased pollution, enterprises need to better allocate capacity and achieve carbon emission reduction. We examine the optimal decision problem for a closed-loop supply chain (CLSC) considering capacity constraints and stochastic demand under a cap-and-trade system. A two-level CLSC comprising a supplier and a manufacturer is established. To make the model more realistic, we treat demand as a random variable, consider the manufacturer’s production capacity within a certain upper limit, and allow the manufacturer to make investments to expand capacity to complete production demand. Based on this CLSC, the collection activities of the supplier and manufacturer are considered. Meanwhile, government carbon limits and carbon trading controls on the manufacturer are considered based on carbon reduction by enterprises. Through modeling and analysis, optimal decisions are derived for the amount of capacity investment, level of carbon emission reduction, and collection price variables. The results indicate that supplier collection has a positive effect on the sustainability of the CLSC. Moreover, the government’s carbon quota and carbon trading control of manufacturers can effectively reduce the carbon emissions of the CLSC, encourage enterprises to reduce carbon emissions, and improve the sustainability of the CLSC.

“…e technique of remanufacturing air conditioners is still in its early stages and needs to be explored by research from various professions. Several aspects should be considered in this industry, including the behavior of used air conditioner owners, government laws, and remanufactured air conditioner market competitiveness [11][12][13][14]. e procedures of the collection system and its connections to other units, such as the remanufacturing unit, contain numerous interconnected tasks that impact one another, which can be assessed through a simulation method that provides an easy way of conducting many alternatives.…”

The need for air conditioners (ACs) is increasing every year, particularly in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). The annual sales of ACs clearly indicated either buying new conditioning systems or replacing existing ACs. When air conditioners are replaced for any reason, a large number of used air conditioners are available, which leads to the necessity of remanufacturing these ACs for economic and environmental purposes. The current research focuses on investigating the collection system of used window ACs as a part of the reverse logistics of remanufacturing window ACs under the uncertainty of demand and production rate. To optimize the average inventory and fulfill the need of the ACs remanufacturing unit, this current research explained many operations in the collection system and their relationship to the remanufacturing unit. These objectives were investigated using a combination of simulation, mathematical, and optimization techniques. After developing the model using Arena software, the simulation model for the initial solution was run. The theoretical and mathematical concepts of inventory have been exploited to find an initial solution for the objectives under investigation. The Optquest tool was used for the simulation model of the initial solution to improve the iterative search technique. Finally, a sensitivity analysis was carried out to determine each input parameter’s magnitude and individual impact on the results. The findings suggest that simulation and optimization strategies are effective in improving average inventory and lost demand. As a result, the average inventory has been reduced significantly.
