Various studies have been conducted in the fields of sustainable operations management, optimization, and wastewater treatment, yielding unsubstantiated recovery. In the context of Europes climate neutrality vision, this paper reviews effective decarbonization strategies and proposes sustainable approaches to mitigate carbonization in various sectors such as building, energy, industry, and transportation. The study also explores the role of digitalization in decarbonization and reviews decarbonization policies that can direct governments action towards a climate-neutral society. The paper also presents a review of optimization approaches applied in the fields of science and technology, incorporating modern optimization techniques based on various peer-reviewed published research papers. It emphasizes non-conventional energy and distributed power generating systems along with the deregulated and regulated environment. Additionally, this paper critically reviews the performance and capability of micellar enhanced ultrafiltration (MEUF) process in the treatment of dye wastewater. The review presents evidence of simultaneous removal of co-existing pollutants and explores the feasibility and efficiency of biosurfactant in-stead of chemical surfactant. Lastly, the paper proposes a novel firm-regulator-consumer interaction framework to study operations decisions and interactive cooperation considering the interactions among three agents through a comprehensive literature review on sustainable operations management. The framework provides support for exploring future research opportunities.
