Abstract
Nowadays Sustainability is a huge issue. Sustainability deals with the need
for the protection of the natural environment and ecosystems health and requires
queue
system, modelling Internal Combustion Engine Vehicles (ICEV), normally cars but not
only, which turn idle when conventional energy becomes scarce, or a new status quo is
required. In such a case, they are recycled, becoming either EV-Electric Vehicles or
HEV-Hybrid Electric Vehicles or FCEV-Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles, or are dismantled
(DV-Dismantled Vehicles). Our model shows that when the rhythm ICEV become EV,
HEV, FCEV and DV is greater than the rate at which they get idle the system tends to
balance. In a cost-benefit analysis perspective, there are minimum benefits above
which, both dismantling and recycling, are interesting. Additionally, the most
interesting is the one for which the minimum benefit is the least.
