Summary: | This paper addresses a joint production and maintenance problem under environmental constraints and reliability issues in a manufacturing/remanufacturing context. The manufacturing system is composed of one machine producing one type of product. The remanufacturing system, also composed of one machine, retrieves returned products from the market in order to refurbish them. The manufacturing and remanufacturing systems aim to satisfy random demands under a given service level. Moreover, the entire system generates harmful emissions. Exceeding carbon emission limits defined by authorities may risk sanctions. We aim to propose a compromise between ecologic and economic production and maintenance plan by calling on green subcontracting in order to satisfy the demand and avoid emission excess. Three models are proposed in this paper. These models tackle mainly the basic production problems and propose alternative equivalent solution schemas for future extensions. The robustness and usefulness of the proposals are illustrated with various examples and sensitivity analyses. |
