Analytical Approaches for Assessing the Revenue Aspects and Environmental Impacts of Demanufacturing

本研究的目的是确保逆向供应链的经济和环境效率的去制造。拆卸制造涉及通过拆卸报废产品并回收部件和材料以供再利用来回收其剩余的经济和环境价值。本研究将着重于发展和分析集成的供应和需求管理策略，以及拆卸和回收业务管理政策的逆向供应链去制造。明确考虑到在实践中影响反制造的复杂性的因素。这些因素涉及到处置市场的供应特点、报废产品的物料清单结构、拆卸和回收成本结构以及再利用市场的需求特点。这项研究将集中在分析模型和特定领域的解决方案方法的发展，提供分析和计算工具，允许替代的综合供应和需求管理战略和拆卸和恢复业务管理政策的经济和环境性能的影响进行比较，去制造。这项研究将是重要的环境立法举措的分析和公共政策的设计和运作的经济合理和环境安全的逆向供应链去制造的发展。此外，由于这项研究议程是与佛罗里达当地的行业合作伙伴合作开发的，这项研究将有助于确定新兴的最佳行业实践，并促进行业和学术合作伙伴之间更强有力的互动。研究生和本科工程专业的学生将受益于计划的教育材料开发和行业推广活动。此外，为学生组织发展以环保为导向的服务项目，将有助于提高后代工程师的环保意识。

The goal of this research is to ensure the economical and environmental efficiency of reverse supply chains for demanufacturing. Demanufacturing is concerned with the reclamation of the residual economical and environmental value of end-of-life products by disassembling them and recovering components and materials for reuse. This research will focus on the development and analysis of integrated supply and demand management strategies as well as disassembly and recovery operations management policies for reverse supply chains for demanufacturing. Explicit consideration will be given to factors that influence the complexity of demanufacturing in practice. These factors pertain to the characteristics of supply in the disposal market, bill-of-material structure of the end-of-life product, disassembly and recovery cost structures, and characteristics of demand in the reuse market. This research will concentrate on the development of analytical models and domain-specific solution methodologies to provide analytical and computational tools that allow for a comparison of economical and environmental performance implications of alternative integrated supply and demand management strategies and disassembly and recovery operations management policies for demanufacturing. This research will be important for the analysis of environmental legislative initiatives and the development of public policies for the design and operation of economically sound and environmentally safe reverse supply chains for demanufacturing. Moreover, as this research agenda has been developed in collaboration with local industry partners in Florida, the research will help with the identification of emerging best industry practice and foster stronger interactions between the industry and academic partners. Graduate and undergraduate engineering students will benefit from the planned educational material development and industry outreach activities. In addition, the development of environmentally oriented service projects for student organizations will help raise the environmental awareness of future generations of engineers.
