Abstract
This research aims to explore the challenges and opportunities for achieving operational sustainability of boilers in the context of Industry 4.0, using the Stepwise Weight Assessment Ratio Analysis (SWARA) method. The integration of Industry 4.0 technologies has the potential to revolutionize the way boilers are operated, offering benefits such as improved energy efficiency, reduced emissions, and enhanced safety. However, effective implementation of these technologies requires addressing the associated challenges and opportunities. This study ranks the challenges and opportunities based on expert feedback using the SWARA method, highlighting the most pressing issues and areas for improvement. By the feedback from 15 industrial and academic experts, the results suggest that 'workforce transformation' and 'data management and integration' are the leading challenges, while 'improved energy efficiency' and 'enhanced safety' are the most significant opportunities for achieving operational sustainability of boilers in the context of Industry 4.0. This research can inform and guide the development of policies, strategies, and solutions aimed at improving the sustainability of boilers in a rapidly changing technological landscape, and assist industrial managers in finding strategic management for sustainable boiler operation.
期刊介绍:
International Journal of Industrial Engineering and Management (IJIEM) is an interdisciplinary international academic journal published quarterly. IJIEM serves researchers in the industrial engineering, manufacturing engineering and management fields. The major aims are: To collect and disseminate information on new and advanced developments in the field of industrial engineering and management; To encourage further progress in engineering and management methodology and applications; To cover the range of engineering and management development and usage in their use of managerial policies and strategies. Thus, IJIEM invites the submission of original, high quality, theoretical and application-oriented research; general surveys and critical reviews; educational or training articles including case studies, in the field of industrial engineering and management. The journal covers all aspects of industrial engineering and management, particularly: -Smart Manufacturing & Industry 4.0, -Production Systems, -Service Engineering, -Automation, Robotics and Mechatronics, -Information and Communication Systems, -ICT for Collaborative Manufacturing, -Quality, Maintenance and Logistics, -Safety and Reliability, -Organization and Human Resources, -Engineering Management, -Entrepreneurship and Innovation, -Project Management, -Marketing and Commerce, -Investment, Finance and Accounting, -Insurance Engineering and Management, -Media Engineering and Management, -Education and Practices in Industrial Engineering and Management.
