(chin, 2012)In supporting environmental sustainability, product return management has become a very important and challenging issue. In response to this trend, researchers in many parts of the world have conducted numerous studies on reverse logistics and reverse supply chain that have been considered separately from the forward channel of supply chains. Meanwhile, there are opportunities to create added value from product returns and improve efficiency when both channels are considered in an integrated manner, such as a closed-loop supply chain. On the other hand, remanufacturing is a very attractive option among product recovery processes that has the potential to increase the value of product returns. However, the available literature and theories on closed-loop supply chain with remanufacturing are still limited. This article aims to provide a literature review covering the closed-loop supply chain with remanufacturing to identify its characteristics based on previous work in this area. The review methodology analyzes dissatisfaction, classifying it into management aspects and technical aspects with the related subsequent themes. Related literatures will be mapped under the above-mentioned frameworks while identifying other important aspects that have potential for further studies. Following the review, an outline of research opportunities will be presented. (Preuss, 2013) Birds flap their wings in oil-infested coastal waters, unable to take off. The trees in a coniferous forest have lost almost all their needles. An empty landscape is marked by open-pit mines. These are just some of the images that have highlighted the enormous costs of industrial development for the natural environment. (Beamon, 1999) Sustainable development has made notable......middle of paper......final supply chain perspective. The “quality revolution in the late 1980s and the supply chain revolution in the early 1990s” pushed companies to become environmentally conscious. GrSCM has gained popularity among both academics and practitioners to aim to reduce waste and preserve the quality of life of product and natural resources. Eco-efficiency and regeneration processes are now important resources for achieving best practices (Ashley, 1993; Srivastava, 2007). Global market demands and government pressures are pushing businesses to become more sustainable (Guide & Srivastava, 1998; Gungor & Gupta, 1999). Walton, Handfield, and Melynyk (1998, p. 2) even argue that “increasing government regulation and stronger public mandates for environmental responsibility have brought these issues into executive teams and strategic planning agendas”..”
