“…From Lemma 1 and Lemma 2, we can conclude that the environmental consciousness of every individual is directly proportional to the use time and the net individual utility, which are similar to the results found by Georgiadis and Vlachos (2004). These authors used the applied system dynamics methodology to examine the impact of the green image effect, the take-back obligation and proper collection campaigns on product recovery behavior in the long term and found that the effect of product recovery on customer demand (which implies an increase in their individual utility) is more pronounced in cases where customers have more developed environmental consciousness and that this increase in environmental consciousness forces states to introduce more environmentally friendly policies (which should lead to higher use time).…”

This study employs a life-cycle evaluation model of due recyclable waste (DRW) to analyze its optimal waste recycling fee (WRF) and subsidy. The results suggest that the government could set the optimal WRF and subsidy of DRW under the assumptions of the relationship that exist between the WRF and the subsidy for the budgetary constraints, but not set for the externality of DRW, and the environmental consciousness of individuals. And the different purposes of the WRF and subsidy are the reasons why a life-cycle evaluation model of due recyclable waste (DRW) is necessary to analyze its optimal waste recycling fee (WRF) and subsidy

“…In terms of environmental concerns, the application has covered many issues. These vary from salt accumulation in lowlands under continuous irrigation practice (Saysel and Barlas, 2001);the value of water conservation (Stave, 2003); the consequences of dioxins to the supply chain of the chicken industry (Minegishi and Thiel, 2000); the eutrophication problem in shallow freshwater lakes (Guneralp and Barlas, 2003); the impact of environmental issues on long-term behavior of a single product supply chain with product recovery (Georgiadis and Vlachos, 2004); sustainability of ecological agricultural development at a county level (Shi and Gill 2005); estimation of methane emissions from rice welds (Anand et al, 2005), basin's environmental management system (Guo et al, 2001) and waste management (Dyson and Chang, 2005;UlliBeer, 2003;Karavezyris et al, 2002;Sudhir et al, 1997).…”

This paper utilized system dynamics modeling as a new analytical approach to predict both the municipal waste generated and the associated disposal costs in developing areas. This approach facilitates the decomposition of general waste into its main components to enable municipalities to manage recyclables and find out the feasibility of performing recycling better rather than disposal by performing comparative disposal cost analysis. This study is different from previous work as it only considers population as a factor to predict the total waste generated and recycled, together with the associated expenditure and disposal cost savings. The approach is verified by applying it to a case study in Nablus and demonstrates the evaluation of the quantity and composition of generated waste by considering population as the main influencing factor. The quantity and composition of municipal solid waste was evaluated to identify opportunities for waste recycling in the Nablus municipality. Municipal solid waste was collected and classified into eight main physical categories. The system dynamics model enable the quantity of each generated component such as plastic and metals to be anticipated together with the cost of recycling or disposal.

“…In the second, Taylor (Taylor 1999, in (Vlachos, Georgiadis & Iakovou 2007)) focuses on the mechanisms of the recycled paper market which often shows instability and inefficiency in terms of flows, prices, etc. Georgiadis and Vlachos (Georgiadis, Vlachos 2004) apply system dynamics to estimate stocks and flows in the reverse supply chain while providing a framework for estimating the annual reprocessing capacity.…”
