“…Wang et al [42] explored the significant effect of the cap-and-trade mechanism on the manufacturer's production decisions and carbon emissions. Considering emission reduction and remanufacturing, Xu and Wang [43] analyzed the optimal decision strategy and profit distribution of a closed-loop supply chain (CLSC) with emission reduction dependent demand.…”

Joint Emission Reduction Strategy in Green Supply Chain under Environmental Regulation

Under the threat of global warming, joint emission reduction strategy has been widely adopted as an effective solution for the industry to guarantee environmental sustainability. In the practice of supply chain, environmental regulations and supply chain contracts are applied with the attempt to improve environmental performance. However, whether these measures are actually effective remains unanswered. In this paper, we study a supply chain with one manufacturer and one retailer adopting joint emission reduction strategy. We first investigate under what circumstance the environmental regulation can effectively result in higher emission reduction efforts. The result shows that when the cost coefficient satisfies certain conditions, the increase of penalty or subsidy can lead to more investment in emission reduction. In addition, if the environmental impact caused by the production process is extremely high, the enforcement of the regulation is ineffective. We also explore how the cost-revenue-sharing contract affects the emission reduction strategy and the coordination of the members in the supply chain. The results suggest that the incentive effect of environmental regulation is more effective when the supply chain coordination contract exists. Numerical experiments are also presented to verify our analytical conclusions.

“…Zhu and Yu [31] studied a supply chain considering consumers' preference for RP and green products. Moreover, Xu and Wang [32] took consumers' satisfaction as the objective function to analyze the influence of consumers' preference for RP. By comparing with the above literature, this study is the same as literature Ferrer and Swaminathan [2], Debo et al [15], Zhao et al [30], and considers the impact of consumers' preference for products on enterprises' profits.…”

“…However, the dynamic situation is considered in this paper. Different from Ferrer and Swaminathan [2], Debo et al [15], Matsumoto et al [16], Zhao et al [30], Zhu and Yu [31] and Xu and Wang [32], they analyzed from the perspective of pricing, influencing factors and corporate behavior, and analyzed from the perspective of a simple and single-period CLSN. However, this paper analyzes a complex and multi-period CLSCN.…”

Multi-Period E-Closed-Loop Supply Chain Network Considering Consumers’ Preference for Products and AI-Push

The remanufacturing industry plays a significant role to improve the utilization of resources and contribute to environmental protection and sustainable development. E-commerce channel (e-channel) has become an important retail channel. The multi-period closed-loop supply chain network of electronic channels (E-CLSCN) is studied. Moreover, this study considers the influence of consumers’ preference for products and artificial intelligence push (AI-push) on network balance under the conditions of dynamic and static. The network consists of manufacturers, remanufacturers, and demand markets. Remanufacturers are responsible for collecting and remanufacturing. The multi-period E-CLSCN model is established through variational inequalities. The study finds that whether dynamic or static, consumers’ preference for new products (NP) has positively correlated with the profits of manufacturers and the whole E-CLSCN. Consumers’ preference for remanufacturer products (RP) has only positively correlated with the profits of remanufactures. In the aspect of AI-push, the manufacturers’ AI-push has positively correlated with the profits of the entire players of E-CLSCN, while the remanufacturers’ AI-push has only positively correlated with the profits of the remanufacturers. Also, considering the multi-period, the sensitivity of the demand markets for the investment of manufacturers’ and remanufacturers’ AI-push gradually reduces, and the marginal benefit of AI-push gradually decreases. Finally, this paper addresses interesting managerial insights from the perspective of government and enterprises. Under the dual objectives of environmental protection and economic interests of enterprises, this study provides a reference for governments and enterprises to develop relevant dynamic policies. Namely, the government formulates dynamic environmental protection measures, and enterprises formulate dynamic strategic plans and implement government policies. While promoting the management level of E-CLSCN, it effectively boosts the development of the remanufacturing industry and recycling sustainable economy.

“…Chen et al [16] presented a two-stage closed-loop supply chain model that considered the uncertainty in the market size, the return capacity and the quality of recycling. Although closed-loop supply chain decision models were developed in the abovementioned literature, no empirical studies investigating eco-innovation in closed-loop supply chain management have been conducted [4].…”

“…However, previous studies have shown that effectively realizing emission reductions and remanufacturing have become the dominant tendencies in the sustainable economy [4]. Bhattacharyya et al [5] found a growing interest in the recovery of raw materials from used products collected from customers as an alternative to the conventional metal extraction processes.…”

This study constructs a theory of eco-innovation in circular agri-business. Although previous studies have discussed eco-innovation in circular agri-business, they did not address eco-innovation from the perspective of a closed-loop sustainable supply chain. Hence, this study applied the fuzzy TOPSIS method to conduct the analysis and determine the interrelationship between eco-innovation and the closed-loop concept. The results are consistent with the theory and a significant improvement in terms of the decisive attributes. The findings suggest that improving water management, relationships with suppliers, knowledge sharing, environmental management systems, and new product and service development are the most effective and efficient ways to build eco-innovation in circular agri-business. The managerial and theoretical implications are discussed.
