Abstract

Evaluating the carbon footprint level is critical when deciding on the shape of supply chains. The efficiency index of logistic processes referring directly to their emissivity may also indicate their technological and organisational advancement level. Such an approach is present in Green Supply Chains (GrSC) and Sustainable Supply Chains (SSC). Elements of these approaches can be applied to reversed supply chains of wood biomass. In this study, the differences in carbon footprint emissions for different shape variants of reversed supply chains of wood biomass are analysed. Based on the conducted research, a set of recommendations and identified dependencies between the elements of the process and its effectiveness were developed. The case study part of this paper was devoted to calculations of the carbon footprint related to the logistic service of wood biomass. Based on calculations of the carbon dioxide equivalent (kgCO2e) level, an attempt was made to indicate the most favourable setup of the reversed supply chain of wood biomass. The research results may be considered when modelling reversed supply chains of wood biomass.
