Three-Tiered E-Waste Recycling Supply Chains Based on Revenue Sharing

Recently, managing e-waste has become an important target for domestic and international material cycles from the viewpoints of environmental preservation and resource utilization efficiency. This paper concerns on the coordination issue of a three-tiered e-waste recycling supply chain with a recycling centre, a product responsibility provider (PRP) and an electronic product manufacturer in a single period model. The revenue sharing coordination can be constructed by the members through negotiating an appropriate proportion of their revenue. This paper also proves that the supply chain could be fully coordinated with the revenue sharing contract and the total profit of the channel can be allocated with any proportion of revenue if the proportion is in the certain interval.
