Abstract:Enterprises have assigned increasing importance to remanufacturing, and meanwhile, the competitiveness of remanufacturing has also become established. In this article, game theory is exploited and government subsidies for remanufacturing, consumer willingness to pay and recycling competition are considered, with a focus on a supply chain consisting of one local manufacturer and one nonlocal remanufacturer. This study attempts to investigate how nonlocal remanufacturers and local manufacturers determine whether they recycle used products and engage in remanufacturing when these factors are considered, in the hope that the results can be constructive in terms of policies and management related to enterprises and governments. As such, four situations are considered and the corresponding models are built to derive the optimal production of each enterprise in the four different situations. Numerical results under the four situations are furthercompared. The results show that consumer acceptance of remanufactured products, irrespective of whether there is competition in production and recycling of remanufactured products and whetherthe government provides subsidy for remanufacturing directly affects each enterprise, remanufacturing and the profits of the overall supply chains. Based on these factors, enterprises should adjust strategies and choose to compete or stop competing or monopolize the market. The government should define attitudes towards the market competition and supervise the changes of market competitiveness based onmarket competition and consumer acceptance of remanufactured products. This study can provide some constructive guidance for some potential nonlocal enterprises engaged in remanufacturing, and at the same time shed some light for desirable direction in some further research onremanufacturing in theory and practice.

“…Zikopoulos and Tagaras [19] examined a reverse supply chain consisting of two collection sites and a refurbishing site, which faces stochastic demand for refurbished products in a single-period setting. Chung et al [20] analyzed an inventory system with traditional forwardoriented material ow as well as a reverse material ow supply chain. Moreover, in the reverse material ow, the used products are returned, remanufactured, and shipped to the retailer for resale.…”

Abstract. Based on the remanufacturing reverse logistics system, this paper studies the inventory control problem of the entire supply chain. Considering a variety of products and raw materials, we established a multi-product multi-echelon inventory control model of the remanufacturing reverse logistics based on the quantitative examination. Also, a numerical simulation is performed, which shows that the model can reduce the inventory cost of remanufacturing reverse logistics, and provides a theoretical basis for determining the production batch and the processing batch for manufacturer and the recycling center. Then, using sensitivity analysis, it shows that the recovery and the remanufacturing rates of the recycled products have a great in uence on the inventory cost of the reverse logistics, production, and inventory of the manufacturer and the recycling center.

This paper proposes model to integrate production, inventory and transportation decision in a whole green manufacturing supply chain. The integration includes reuse and remanufacturing of returned used products. The manufacturing supply chain consists of tier-2 and tier-1 suppliers, a manufacturer, distributors, retailers and a third party. The manufacturer dissembles used products into parts. Reusable parts are remanufactured and reused again in finished products. A mathematical model is developed to coordinate production, inventory and transportation decision which considers multiple products simultaneously with determination of number of transportation units needed to deliver the finished products subject to their own capacities. Solution methods for the model are proposed based on three types of coordination mechanisms, decentralised, semi-centralised and centralised decision processes. The model and solution methods are illustrated with two numerical examples and results and findings are discussed.
