Abstract:
Given the extended producer responsibility policy, various producers form a coalition and act as a single entity which is so-called producer responsibility organization (PRO). Considering different recyclability of different producers' end-of-life (EOL) products, differentiated collection strategies are employed for different producers, which arises as an innovatively cooperative recycling practice. Along this line, given the minimum collection rate required by government and a subsidy policy, this paper develops a collection rate decision model based on multi-choice goal programming (MCGP) to explore the characteristic functions for various producer coalitions. Furthermore, by incorporating the different unit recycling costs of different producers' EOL products, we propose a revised Shapley value to allocate the overall cost incurred by PRO. The numerical study shows that our model based on MCGP can improve the collection rate decisions for PRO in the sense that PRO can collect more EOL products with cost no more than the summation of producers' costs in non-cooperative case. On the other hand, compared to the classical Shapley value, the proposed revised Shapley value better reflects the recyclability differences for different types of EOL products, which may lead to the producers' effort on the recyclability improvement of their products in the design and manufacturing stages.
