Beskrivning

Warranty fraud in remanufacturing represents a critical yet understudied threat to circular economy systems. While remanufacturing offers substantial environmental benefits by extending product lifecycles and reducing waste, its legitimacy and economic viability are undermined by fraudulent practices. Unlike established fraud detection in finance and taxation, warranty fraud in remanufacturing remains largely overlooked despite its systemic nature and significant financial impact. This book addresses this gap by examining how fraud erodes trust, the essential foundation of sustainable systems that balance environmental responsibility, social legitimacy, and economic viability.Warranty Fraud in Remanufacturing: Detection and Mitigation analyzes warranty fraud in remanufacturing, revealing its roots in asymmetric information and multi-actor service chains. It explores fraud mechanisms like service agent misconduct and cascading deceptions while presenting technological solutions, including IoT telemetry, AI models, and blockchain-based audit trails. By integrating game theory, simulations, and cyber-physical systems, it offers practical frameworks that not only prevent fraud but also enhance efficiency and accelerate remanufacturing's mainstream adoption.This book serves professionals at the intersection of sustainability, technology, and business ethics—specifically remanufacturing industry practitioners, technology developers working with IoT and blockchain, sustainability managers, and policymakers developing regulatory frameworks. Academic researchers in business ethics, sustainable operations, and fraud detection will find valuable frameworks connecting theory with practical applications. The integrated approach benefits anyone working to strengthen accountability in systems that transform waste into value.
