The choice of cleaner production practices within the supply chain can improve the textile industry's environmental, financial, and operational advantages. The objective of this study is to evaluate smart environmental management practices (SEMPs) for minimizing the pollution load (energy waste, water consumption, wastewater generation, and chemical waste) within the supply chain in five textile production units of Lahore, Faisalabad (Punjab), and Karachi (Sindh) in Pakistan and to assist and get comprehensive knowledge on resource saving through cleaner production techniques. A multi-criteria decisionmaking method was used to identify the possibilities and use for cleaner production and SEMPs. A total of 36 SEMPs have been recorded with three benchmarking levels based on investment and business priority: i) low/no-cost high return, ii) high-cost high return, and iii) medium-cost medium return. After an initial assessment, SEMPs were implemented and post-assessments were conducted after gap of months. It was found that about 1.3 million m 3 of water was saved which constituted up 21% of the total water consumption. Moreover, 34,600 tons of chemicals and 1,441,500 kWh energy were also saved. This resource saving also helped industries save 0.792 million USD. Using the SEMPs proposed in this article, the annual GHG emission was significantly reduced for industries where the potential varied from 200 to 8,500 tons of CO 2 for different industries.

China’s market-oriented reform supports the sustainable development of energy mix and the low-carbon target, and natural gas has bridged the transition from traditional fossil energy to clean and renewable energies. The third-party access policy, launched recently by China’s natural gas market, drives the decouple between gas trade and transport. The decouple might lead to the transmission resources of physical network not optimally used, which is caused by the contractual arrangement between entry and exit capacities in commercial network. Aiming at this issue, we established a mathematical programming with equilibrium constraints (MPEC) to integrate the allocations of commercial capacity and physical flows, based on a minimum cost maximum flow problem (MCMF) abstracted from China’s existing gas network. The MPEC model was then used to strategically evaluate the transmission efficiency, and identify the critical factors of its loss. Our results show that there is transmission efficiency loss of China’s gas network from the shortage of geospatial gas supply and the invisible segmentation of gas network due to interdicted cost of pipeline, bottleneck of pipeline capacity and economic radius of gas supply chains to transport gas. Therefore, the critical factor of the loss to be identified will be helpful for strategically reducing the cost of decoupling gas trade and transport.

The COVID-19 pandemic strengthens the use of digital services in the supply chains of manufacturers and suppliers in the automotive industry. Furthermore, the digitalization of the production process changed how manufacturing firms manage their value chains in the era of Industry 4.0. The automotive sector represents the ecosystem with rapid digital transformation, which provides a strong relationship between manufacturing firms in supply chains. However, there are many gaps in understanding how digital technologies and services could better shape relations between manufacturers and suppliers in the automotive industry. Accordingly, this study investigates the relations in deliveries of digital services in supply chains of the automotive industry. The data set was obtained through annual reports of the automotive firms, both from suppliers and manufacturers, between 2018 and 2020. From the network perspective, throughout the years, authors have used Social Network Analysis (SNA) method. SNA evaluates the relationship between actors (i.e., manufacturers and suppliers) in the use of services in their business models. The research results demonstrate how suppliers influence car manufacturers to deliver digital services to their customers. Finally, this study provides information that the combination of digital technologies with product-related services enables a stronger relationship between manufacturers and suppliers in the manufacturing ecosystem. These relations support the manufacturing ecosystem to survive the influence of different environments.
