“…They discussed the responsibilities of governments in promoting remanufacturing and identified the obstacles faced by enterprises engaged in remanufacturing. Recently, Khan et al [6] conducted a study to model the CSFs of remanufacturing practices for CE transition. They found that tax reduction, research and development for remanufacturing, and top management support are the main factors in adopting remanufacturing practices.…”

“…DEMATEL was created in 1976 to determine the causal relationship between variables. It is used in a wide range of emerging research areas such as health care, supply chain management, smart cities, traceability, and consumer behaviors [6]. The detailed steps of the DEMATEL technique are as follows.…”

“…The customer has a preconception about the quality of the remanufactured product, influencing their purchase decision. The consumer preconception quality of remanufactured products is considered a significant factor in purchase decisions by Sharma et al [23] and Khan et al [6]. However, the quality of the remanufactured product is good when it is systematically remanufactured in a CE environment.…”

“…Furthermore, the market opportunities are another motivating force behind the adoption of remanufacturing for the organization. The market opportunities can be created through various means, such as creating awareness about the benefits of remanufactured products, price reduction, and tax relief on remanufactured products [6]. In this row, management commitment plays a significant role in remanufacturing adoption.…”

“…To address the issue, industries are steadily moving their business models toward a circular economy (CE), pertaining to product shelf-life extension, waste management, and financial system sustainability through customer preference for substitute goods and services. Therefore, over the past decade, the concept of the CE has gained prominence and has become particularly associated with efforts to achieve a more sustainable society [6].…”

Organizations are transforming their linear models into circular models in order to become more sustainable. Remanufacturing is an essential element of the circular model; thus, there is an urgent need to adopt remanufacturing. It can offer organizations economic and environmental advantages and facilitate the transition to a circular economy (CE). Several aspects are crucial to the use of remanufacturing methods in order to transition to the CE. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to develop a framework for investigating the causal relationship among determinants of adopting remanufacturing processes for the circular economy. Through an integrated approach comprising a literature review and the Modified Delphi Method, we identified ten remanufacturing adoption determinants. The causal relationship among these determinants was established using the DEMATEL method. Furthermore, we classified these determinants into cause and effect groups. Five determinants, “consumer preferences”, “remanufacturing adoption framework”, “market opportunities”, “management commitment”, and “preferential tax policies”, belong to the cause group, and the remaining five belong to the effect group based on the effect score. To implement remanufacturing processes and transition to a circular economy, it is necessary to pay greater attention to these identified determinants, especially those that belong to the cause group. The outcomes of this study may aid management and policy makers in formulating strategies for effectively implementing remanufacturing methods within their organizations.

Value-retained vs. impacts avoided: the differentiated contributions of remanufacturing, refurbishment, repair, and reuse within a circular economy

Value-retention processes (VRPs), a collective term that includes practices of direct reuse, repair, refurbishment, and remanufacturing, can facilitate the cycling of products and components within a circular economy (CE). VRPs are often presented as alternatives to conventional manufacturing and consumption, and as mechanisms for avoiding negative environmental impacts (e.g., landfill) and mitigating issues of material scarcity. However, these practices are typically lumped together under generic ‘reuse’ strategies within sustainable materials management programs and policies. Further, there is a lack of clarity and data regarding how VRPs differ, and the extent to which they contribute to the avoidance of negative environmental and economic impacts. Using novel integrated product-, process, and economy-level models, we quantify select environmental and economic impact metrics for VRPs and conventional manufacturing across six case study products, in two industrialized economies (USA and China). Using this novel methodology, we demonstrate a basis for clear differentiation of VRPs as distinct strategies within a CE, and show that each VRP offers differing forms of value (e.g. cost reduction, labor opportunity, and material retention) and differing degrees of environmental and economic impacts (e.g., primary material requirement, embodied emissions, process emissions). In all cases, the product- and process-level comparative analyses indicate that VRPs present a clear opportunity for significantly reduced environmental impacts, relative to conventional manufacturing. This novel methodology provides an adaptive, comprehensive model that can support the decision of whether or not to engage in VRPs. By quantifying and evaluating VRPs in terms of their relative environmental and economic performance, the distinct avenues, expectations and outcomes for CE can be better integrated across diverse industry and product portfolios (International Resource Panel [29]).
