In this paper, we highlighted the importance of integrating environmental goals into the production system. We recommend the establishment of closed-loop production systems in a supply chain level. To realize closed-loop production systems, we introduced the concept of sustainable supply chain networks. With a SSCN, it is possible to shift successfully from a flow economy to a circular economy by combining environmental and economic issues, thereby improving eco-efficiency.
Standard passport processing generally takes between four to six weeks, but it can take longer during peak travel times.
How long does it take to receive your passport card? It takes the same amount of time for the U.S. Department of State Passport Services to process and issue a passport card as it does for a passport book. This can take from 4 weeks to 3 months depending on the demand at the time you apply.
