Efficient and sustainable management of product durability and recyclability
Eichner, Thomas; Runkel, Marco - 2000
In a dynamic general equilibrium model we explictly consider the relationship between the product attributes 'durability' and 'recyclability'. Both efficiency and sustainability aspects are taken into account. It turns out (a) that durability may be inefficient even in a perfectly competitive...

Eichner, Thomas; Pethig, Rüdiger - 1999
This paper examines a Waste Management Organisation's (WMO) pricing options to implement the Pareto-efficient allocation in an economy where materials are first extracted, then used for producing a consumption good and finally recycled or landfilled. The WMO is established by the producers who...

Corrective taxation for curbing pollution and promoting green product design and recycling
Eichner, Thomas; Pethig, Rüdiger - 2000
In this paper we consider a competitive economy with flows of materials from extraction via recycling to landfilling … stimulates recycling as expected. But it also increases primary material extraction and - possibly - the total waste flow, and it … reduces the recycling ratio. …

Gebührenstrategien in einem disaggregierten Modell der Abfallwirtschaft
Eichner, Thomas; Pethig, Rüdiger - 2000
In der vorliegenden Studie überprüfen wir verschiedene Gebührenstrategien der Dualen System Deutschland AG (DSD) darauf hin, ob sie die pareto-effiziente Allokation in der Abfallwirtschaft implementieren. Dabei greifen wir auf eine disaggregierte Modellökonomie zurück, in der Material...
