Abstract

The rapid increase of waste presents a global challenge pursuing sustainability. In response, recycling is widely recognised as a friendly strategy to the environment and the proper approach to minimise the impact on the environment and the economy. However, the available recycling technology requires raw materials and energy, thus contributing to the depletion of resources. Therefore, it is vital to assess the efficiency of recycling processes to determine their real benefit. The literature suggests a series of approaches, which may be, at first sight, confusing. This study focuses on efficiency evaluation of recycling through exergy as an agile response. It performs a systematic review, based on nine significant factors in recycling, of the relevant literature, evaluating the recycling through the exergetic approach. The review makes two important contributions. First, it presents an approach for assessing such diverse literature in a single structure. In addition, revealing improvement opportunities and future research.

作为回收过程的敏捷方法的用能分析:文献综述

废物的迅速增加对追求可持续性提出了全球性挑战。作为回应，回收利用被广泛认为是一种对环境友好的策略，也是将对环境和经济影响降至最低的适当方法。然而，现有的回收技术需要原材料和能源，从而导致资源枯竭。因此，评估回收过程的效率以确定其实际效益至关重要。文献提出了一系列方法，乍一看可能令人困惑。本研究的重点是通过火用作为一种敏捷响应来评估回收的效率。它基于回收利用中的九个重要因素，对相关文献进行了系统的回顾，并通过实证方法对回收利用进行了评估。该审查作出了两项重要贡献。首先，它提出了一种在单一结构中评估这种多样性文献的方法。此外，揭示了改进的机会和未来的研究。

期刊介绍： The objective of IJASM is to establish an effective channel of communication between academia, industry and persons concerned with the design and development of systems. Change is eternal and perpetual, irrespective of type of system. Systems created in the course of the advance of human civilization need to be functionally and operationally sustainable amid changes in technological, political, socio-economical, financial, cultural and other environmental challenges. IJASM aims to promote and harmonize knowledge developments in the emerging fields of agile systems research, sustainability and vulnerability analysis, risk assessments methodologies, complex systems science, e-organisation and e-supply chain management, with emphasis on the international dimension, particularly breaking cultural barriers, and on national contexts, globalisation and new business practices. As such, we aim to publish papers presenting new research, innovative theoretical approaches, changes in agile management paradigms, and action (both examples of successes and failures as long as there are important lessons to be learned) from leading scholars and practitioners. Papers generally fall into two broad categories: those grounded in theory and/or papers using scientific research methods (e.g., reports of original empirical studies, models, critical reviews of existing empirical research, theory pieces that clearly extend current thinking); and those focusing on innovative agile approaches that are based on well reasoned extensions of existing research, experiential knowledge, or exemplary cases (e.g., thought pieces, case studies, etc).
