我们研究质量设计和环境后果的绿色消费在再制造的背景下。具体而言，企业可以选择设计不可再制造或可再制造的产品，并指定相应的质量，设计选择影响生产成本和消费者对产品的评价。在成本方面，与不可再制造产品相比，可再制造产品的原始生产成本更高，但再制造成本更低。类似地，在消费者方面，可再制造产品的价值高于不可再制造产品，但再制造产品的价值低于不可再制造产品。考虑到这一点，我们调查的环境后果，设计的再制造性，首先定义一个衡量环境影响，最终是一个功能，什么是生产，有多少是生产，然后应用该措施来评估与该公司的最佳战略相关联的环境影响，相对于与该公司的其他最佳战略相关联的环境影响，可再制造产品的设计和生产。(C)2015 Elsevier BM.

We study quality design and the environmental consequences of green consumerism in a remanufacturing context. Specifically, a firm has the option to design a non-remanufacturable or a remanufacturable product and to specify a corresponding quality, and the design choices affect both the production costs and consumer valuations associated with the product. On the cost side, remanufacturable products cost more to produce originally, but less to remanufacture, than non-remanufacturable products cost to produce. Analogously, on the consumer side, remanufacturable products are valued more, but remanufactured products are valued less, than non-remanufacturable products are valued. Given this, we investigate the environmental consequences of designing for remanufacturability by first defining a measure of environmental impact that ultimately is a function of what is produced and how much is produced, and then applying that measure to assess the environmental impact associated with the firm's optimal strategy relative to the environmental impact associated with the firm's otherwise optimal strategy if a non-remanufacturable product were designed and produced.
