A Reverse Logistics Model for Green Products with Carbon Emission under Green Technology and Consumer Concern

In the prevailing global scenario, characterized by heightened carbon concerns and inadequate waste management, a systematic approach to product lifecycle management is essential. This proposed model tackles the challenge by methodically handling used products through collection, disassembly, and distribution based on their intrinsic value. With a primary focus on minimizing waste at the end of the cycle and considering carbon emissions, the model seamlessly integrates production and remanufacturing while accommodating fluctuating inflation rates over time. Crucially, it ensures that remanufactured items maintain parity with their original counterparts, accounting for the natural degradation of stored items. Numerical verification enhances the theoretical framework, providing a visual representation of anticipated results, and sensitivity analyses explore various parameters, contributing to a comprehensive understanding of the intricate dynamics between production, remanufacturing, and waste reduction.
