In this paper, a bi-objective mixed-integer linear optimization model for Closed-loop Supply Chain Network Design Problem (CLSCND) is developed. The proposed model includes both the forward and reverse directions and includes different types of facilities, namely, manufacturing/remanufacturing centers, warehouses, and disassembly centers. The first objective function tried to minimize the total...

Nowadays, there has been a growing interest in reverse logistics, recycling, remanufacturing and reusing due to the environmental, economical issues and legal obligations. Due to this fact, companies should take into account the remanufacturing option while preparing the medium-term planning (MTP) activities instead of using traditional production planning models. There are lots of studies in t...

Remanufacturing is an industrial process that makes used products reusable. Remanufacturing is a way to establish a closed-loop supply chain. One of the important aspects in both reverse logistics and remanufacturing is pricing of returned and remanufactured products (called cores) that it has been noticed in this paper. In addition, in this paper the researchers have tried to present a mathema...

Abstract Recent developments in food industries have attracted both academic and industrial practitioners. Shrimp as a well-known, rich, sought-after seafood, is generally obtained from either marine environments or aquaculture. Central prominence of Supply Chain (SSC) brought about by numerous factors such high demand, market price, diverse fisheries aquaculture locations. In this respect, pap...

The purpose of this paper is to develop a systematic literature review on the subject of sustainable supply chain network design during 1990-2016, through a review of 261 papers. In this study, qualitative technique for conducting a systematic literature review was used. To systematize and make the literature review more accurate, content analysis method was used that include data collect...

Social responsibility is a key factor that could result in success and achieving great benefits for supply chains. Responsiveness and reliability are important social responsibility measures for consumers and all stakeholders that strategists and company managers should be concerned about them in long-term planning horizon. Although, presence of uncertainties as an intrinsic part of supply chai...

Logistics network design is commonly recognized as a strategic supply chain issue of prime importance. The location of production facilities, storage concepts, and transportation strategies are major determinants of supply chain performance. This chapter considers logistics network design for the particular case of closed-loop supply chains. We highlight key issues that companies are facing whe...
