Revolutionizing Textile Manufacturing: Sustainable and Profitable Production by Integrating Industry 4.0, Activity-Based Costing, and the Theory of Constraints

The textile industry, a cornerstone of daily life and a highly globalized sector, faces significant environmental challenges due to its high water and energy consumption and extensive chemical usage. This study proposes a comprehensive green production planning and control model integrating Industry 4.0 concepts, activity-based costing (ABC), and the theory of constraints (TOC). The model utilizes mathematical programming to optimize product mix, maximize profitability, and minimize environmental impact. It leverages real-time sensing technologies and ERP systems to facilitate waste recovery, reduce carbon emissions, and achieve energy savings. Various carbon emission cost models, including continuous and discontinuous tax functions, are explored to balance corporate profitability with environmental sustainability. The findings demonstrate the model’s potential in optimizing resource utilization, reducing the environmental footprint, and enhancing profitability.

Abstract

The textile industry, a cornerstone of daily life and a highly globalized sector, faces significant environmental challenges due to its high water and energy consumption and extensive chemical usage. This study proposes a comprehensive green production planning and control model integrating Industry 4.0 concepts, activity-based costing (ABC), and the theory of constraints (TOC). The model utilizes mathematical programming to optimize product mix, maximize profitability, and minimize environmental impact. It leverages real-time sensing technologies and ERP systems to facilitate waste recovery, reduce carbon emissions, and achieve energy savings. Various carbon emission cost models, including continuous and discontinuous tax functions, are explored to balance corporate profitability with environmental sustainability. The findings demonstrate the model’s potential in optimizing resource utilization, reducing the environmental footprint, and enhancing profitability.
