Interests in Closed-Loop Supply Chain (CLSC) issues are growing day by day within the academia, companies, and customers. Many papers discuss profitability or cost reduction impacts of remanufacturing, but a very important point is almost missing. Indeed, there is no guarantee about the amounts of return products even if we know a lot about demands of first products. This uncertainty is due to ...

The design of closed-loop supply chain networks has attracted more attention in recent years according to business and environmental factors. The significance of accounting for uncertainty and risk in such networks spurs an interest to develop appropriate decision making tools to cope with uncertain and imprecise parameters in closed-loop supply chain network design problems. This paper propose...

Abstract Over the course of last decades, closed-loop supply chains (CLSC) and reverse logistics issues have attracted increasing attention owing to strict environmental laws, social responsibilities, economic interests, customer awareness. Hence, issue chain has emerged as a field research in new era. This received much because it allows recyclable products return their original cycle. Therefo...

With regard to environmental pressures and economic benefits, some original construction equipment manufacturers, have focused on collecting recovering machinery at the end of their life. The present study aimed focus Sustainable closed-loop supply chain network optimization for recovering. To this purpose, different recovery options such as remanufacturing, recycli...

Recently, with the environmental crisis, Green supply chain management (or GSCM), and in particular closed loop supply chain model, has received considerable attention by researchers. Closed loop supply chain model aims at reduction of waste and generating profit for enterprises through integrating forward and reverse logistics. Unfortunately, there is limited research on general models for clo...

The closed-loop supply chain considers conceptually the possibility of reverse logistics with use recycling, remanufacturing and disposal centers. This study contributes for first time a green framework ventilators, which are highly important in case COVID-19 pandemic. proposed model simulates Iranian medical ventilator production. includes environmental sustainability to limit carbon emissions...

In recent years, sustainability concept has been introduced to many fields including management, technology, and supply chain (SC). The most accepted definition for Sustainable Supply Chain Management (SSCM) would be one where all consumer products are created, used, and recycled or disposed of in the Closed loop Method. Closed Loop Supply Chain Management (CLSCM) refers to all forward Logistic...

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...
