As today’s consumers are more and more concerned with the environmental impacts of products and services they buy, enterprises have been more and more concerned with ‘‘green operations’’. One of the key aspects of green logistics management is reverse logistics. This paper shows how the potential of managing reverse logistics flows can be implemented in the agro-industrial sector. As an example...

Although many quantitative models have been reported in the literature for designing a supply chain, none of them address issues that are crucial for the supply chain to successfully operate in a closedloop. To that end, we examine the following: (i) selection of economical products to process, (ii) identification of efficient production facilities in the region where the supply chain is to be ...

Product returns from market to the manufacturer can happen because of the motivation to capture the value content of the product after use or the obligation from legislation and the environmental concerns. A manufacturing system capable of integrating both the manufacturing and remanufacturing activities can help the recovery of value content in the products after the end of product’s use life....

Green manufacturing (especially the right production scale) and optimization of logistics transportation to ensure economic benefits) have become challenging issues. This paper focuses on planning scheduling dynamic supply chain via H∞ control scheme. considers scale resource complex under impact COVID-19 pandemic.Firstly, information green is collected, a new mathematical model including multi...

This paper discusses the closed-loop supply chain which is composed of a manufacturer, a retailer and the third-party recycler, the market dominated by manufacturer. Consumer conveys different preference for new products and remanufactured products. From this base, we segment markets and determine the market demand of different products. Then, we set up a closed-loop supply chain with the third...

globalization, increasing the global regulations of governmental and non-governmental organizations and customers’ request regarding to environmental compliance issues have led to organizations considering the green supply chain management to improve the environmental and economical performance. in order to maximize the efficiency of energy consumption and resources across the supply chain, gre...

T paper provides a critical review of analytic research on the business economics of product reuse inspired by industrial practice. Insights and critical assumptions are provided for each paper. We further classify the research into four streams: industrial engineering/operations research, design, strategy, and behavioral, and present a framework linking these streams. We find that some modelin...

This study deals with joint decisions on pricing and production lot-sizing in a closed-loop supply chain consisting of manufacturing and remanufacturing operations. This study emphasizes the economic analysis of this hybrid system with substitution between the new and the remanufactured versions of the same product. We develop analytical models under a newsvendor framework bearing the following...

Designing a logistic network is a strategic and critical problem that provides an optimal platform for the effective and efficient supply chain management. In this research, we address the application of fuzzy sets to design a multi-product, multi-period, closed-loop supply chain network. The presented supply chain includes three objective functions: maximization of profit, minimization of deli...
