Incorporation of Competition Among Retailers in a Supply Chain Model with Carbon Emission Reduction Technology

Abstract

As days are progressing the effect of global warming increases rapidly through-out the world. It is a bigger threat for not only human being but also for the whole animal kingdom. If we look deeply into the reason behind global warming, there are some gases behind it. In this regard, the most harmful gas which is responsible for global warming is 𝑪𝒐𝟐 . Emission of carbon from different industry helps in formation of 𝑪𝒐𝟐. So, utility of carbon emission reduction technology is indispensible for both developed and developing countries. Different Governments consider the act of reduction of carbon emission level by applying some technology as a social responsibility. Very often this technology is termed as Green technology. Also, in many situations upper bound of carbon emission level is specified to arisen more consciousness among the people. A mathematical model has been framed incorporating Green technology. Solution procedure under different structures is discussed. Numerical example has been provided illustrating this model.
