Sustainable Supply Chain Management: The Influence of Disposal Scenarios on the Environmental Impact of a 2400 L Waste Container

Abstract: This paper analyzes the influence of the supply chain management on the environmental impact of a 2400 L waste disposal container used in most cities of Spain. The studied functional unit, a waste disposal container, made up mostly of plastic materials and a metallic structure, and manufactured in Madrid (Spain), is distributed to several cities at an average distance of 392 km. A life cycle assessment of four different scenarios (SC) has been calculated with the software EcoTool v4.0 (version 4.0; i+: Zaragoz… Show more

“…Such cost inefficiencies will also negatively impact the project performance, especially on surpluses or shortages of materials [3]. To improve the SCM, research effort has been put on many aspects, including supplier selection or evaluation [4], analytical modeling [5], performance measurement [6], and influence analysis of sustainable SCM [7]. Regarding the improvement of the tracking abilities on the supply chain, innovative technologies have the capability to address ineffective issues by integrating all materials with supply-chain work processes to provide project teams with online access to information during all project phases, which produces complete supply-chain management from manufacturer to construction site [8].…”

“…-Pegada de carbono A eficiência de CO2 é popular no gerenciamento da cadeia de suprimentos e a maioria das suas abordagens baseiam-se na ACV ao estimar a pegada de carbono de produtos em geral (HE et al, 2016). A importância de estudar a cadeia de suprimentos em certificação de produtos de baixa emissão de carbono, utilizando o método da ACV para analisar as emissões de carbono e estudar como otimizar a gestão da cadeia de suprimentos de produtos com baixa emissão de carbono (GALVE et al, 2016; GAO e SHI, 2012).…”

“…Porém, os autores Meinrenken et al (2014) ressaltam que é preciso cuidado na interpretação da avaliação, bem como na implementação de melhorias. Pois, de acordo com Fuente et al (2017), tais modificações geralmente criam trade-offs, ou seja, melhora-se alguns aspectos enquanto agravam os outros Diante disso, o objetivo deste estudo foi identificar práticas de ACV para a gestão da cadeia de suprimentos sustentáveis. A importância deste estudo se justifica na identificação de práticas sustentáveis que podem ser adotadas pelas organizações por meio da ACV, auxiliando a tomada de decisão para o desenvolvimento de produtos e gestão sustentável de toda a cadeia de suprimentos.…”
