Abstract
Despite the claim that blockchain will revolutionize business, existing research so far is limited regarding frameworks that categorize blockchain application potentials and their implications. In particular, the academic literature is not well-defined on how to adopt this technology for reverse logistics management. In response, this article uses a brief review of the scientific literature and the fundamentals of blockchain technology to discuss about the benefits of implementation of this tool in a reverse logistics flow to obtain greater control and security between the actors of the reverse logistics network in all material collected and directed. Five actors were listed: industry, transport, traders, waste picker cooperative, and recycler. Develop and structure a RL management model, making use of blockchain technology, has potential to enable greater transparency of the tailing’s life cycle, increasing the traceability and reliability of the data obtained, and providing lower costs related to the monitoring of disposal.
