Re-distributed manufacturing and the food-water-energy nexus: opportunities and challenges

Abstract

Re-distributed manufacturing and the food-water-energy nexus: opportunities and challenges,

A systematic review of research on food loss and waste prevention and management for the circular economy

“…Additionally, AD can be deployed on a small scale in any geographical location (Ingrao et al, 2018), which makes it fit well in the industrial symbiosis and regenerative principle of the CE. It is estimated that if all bread waste in the UK was fed into AD J o u r n a l P r e -p r o o f plants, it could generate roughly 10% (198 GWh) of the total energy used in the bread sector each year (Veldhuis et al, 2019). Compared to incineration and landfill, AD is proven to be an efficient and eco-friendly (GHG saving) waste treatment option (Capson-Tojo et al, 2016).…”

Maker Networks Fighting Covid-19: Design Guidelines for Redistributed Manufacturing (RDM) Models

“…Other RDM characteristics found in literature reside mainly in the application of Industry 4.0 technologies (Turner et al, 2019) and the move from a centralized mass scale towards a small-scale localized production (Chandima Ratnayake, 2019;Freeman, McMahon, & Godfrey, 2017;Prendeville et al, 2016;Srai, Harrington, & Tiwari, 2016;Veldhuis et al, 2019). Hennelly, Srai, Graham, Meriton, & Kumar (2019) developed a framework to describe the features required by RDM implementations.…”

Food waste management: An analysis from the circular economy perspective

“…Regarding the type of study, the following approaches were mapped: ‐ Case study : 13 articles analyzed (Banasik et al., 2016; Belavina, 2020; Birisci & McGarve, 2016; Li, You, & Wu, 2017; Choi, Guo, Liu, & Shi, 2019; Farooque, Zhang, & Liu, 2019; Martins, Melo, & Pato, 2018; Sgarbossa & Russo, 2017; Tromp, Haijema, Rijgersberg, & van der Vorst, 2016; Veldhuis et al., 2019; Vlachos, 2015; Vlajic, Mijailovic, & Bogdanova, 2018; Wikoff, 2017; Xiong, Ng, He, & Fan, 2017). ‐ Multiple case study : 4 articles analyzed (Batista et al., 2019; Broekmeulen & van Donselaar, 2017; Kiil, Dreyer, Hvolby, & Chabada, 2017; Mena, Terry, Williams, & Ellram, 2014).…”

“…‐ Measurement studies : such as the analysis of the effect of Dynamic Life Discount on a retailer's replacement and its performance in terms of waste, profit, scarcity, and product quality (Buisman et al., 2017); manual versus automated replacement and its implications for food waste metrics (Kiil et al., 2017); analysis of three fresh food supply chain networks, considering residual product value, quantities available for recovery, recovery value, and markets for recovered products; of the effect of interactions on the initial state of the system (Vlajic et al., 2018). ‐ Studies focused on prospecting new scenarios : how to create a sustainable closed‐loop supply chain (CLSC) model using and recovering meat processing waste (Sgarbossa & Russo, 2017); assessment of opportunities and challenges for redistributed food manufacturing and their consequences in the water, energy, and food nexus (Veldhuis et al., 2019); examining the adoption of lean thinking in the food supply chain (Vlachos, 2015). …”

“…‐ Entrepreneurs : decision‐makers, executives, managers, bosses, and business owners (Li et al., 2017). ‐ Food value chain actors : subjects involved in bread and pasta production (Veldhuis et al., 2019); retailers (Buisman et al., 2017), network actors (Mena, Terry, & Ellhram, 2014), and purchasing managers (Wikoff, 2017). …”
