Abstract

This research aims to use network configuration theory to propose circular supply chain archetypes for the valorisation of solid waste. The proposed network configuration archetypes are differentiated by their levels of geographic dispersion, each representing coherent clusters of waste material and supply network characteristics for the valorisation of waste streams, namely: centralised, semi-centralised and decentralised. The different types of solid waste require local (e.g., wood, organic waste), regional (e.g., glass, plastics and rubber, paper and cardboard) or pan-regional (e.g., metals and alloys) network configuration options primarily dictated by the intrinsic physico-chemical properties of the wasted material and constraints related to the processing technologies. Furthermore, the proposed network configuration archetypes dictate operational considerations, such as procurement and pre-processing options for the wasted feedstocks, along with upscale production opportunities and distribution of the value-added intermediates or end-products.

固体废物循环利用的供应网络结构原型

本研究旨在利用网络配置理论提出固体废物增值的循环供应链原型。拟议的网络配置原型根据其地理分散程度进行区分，每一个都代表废物材料的连贯集群和废物流增值的供应网络特征，即:集中式、半集中式和分散式。不同类型的固体废物需要当地(例如木材、有机废物)、区域(例如玻璃、塑料和橡胶、纸和纸板)或泛区域(例如金属和合金)网络配置选项，这些选项主要取决于废物的内在物理化学性质和与处理技术有关的限制。此外，建议的网络配置原型规定了操作考虑因素，例如浪费原料的采购和预处理选项，以及高档生产机会和增值中间体或最终产品的分配。

期刊介绍： IJISM''s thematic focus is on research that investigates and improves integration along supply chains. IJISM seeks high-impact scholarly analytical and empirical research in integrated supply management from academics and professionals. It is discipline-agnostic. Supply chain integration can be a complex and challenging imperative involving industry 4.0 ecosystems, alignment of supply markets and consumers, associated organisational changes, and the creation and management of integrative relationships in the supply chain. Substantive research that addresses such issues is solicited. Topics covered include: -Industry 4.0 and smart manufacturing/service eco-systems including blockchains, robotics, wearables, sensors, AI, data mining, additive technologies, etc. in integrated supply chains -Global integrated supply chain design -Purchasing and supplier coordination and relationships -New modelling, optimisation and empirical methodologies in integrated supply chain design and management -Risk management and resilience -Sustainable operations and sharing and circular economies -Lean supply managenent -Quality management in supply chains -Transportation and logistics -Customer relationship, service response, demand management in supply chains -E-commerce supply management -Performance measurement in supply chains
