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...

In the current design of reverse supply chain, several performance indicators must be considered and treated attentively. At this strategic level of the conception and to ensure a sustainable closed loop green supply chain, many qualitative as well quantitative criteria are taken into consideration with an environmental respect. Since the location allocation study persists as one of the most im...

Environmental problems are recognized as one of the most serious issues in these last few decades. Green supply chain management and sustainable supply chain management have gained increasing attention within both academia and industry. Previous studies proposed a closed-loop supply chain model and a negotiation protocol for increasing the amount of reused products and reducing waste products. ...

design of a logistics network in proper way provides a proper platform for efficient and effective supply chain management. this paper studies a multi-period, multi echelon and multi-product integrated forward-reverse logistics network under uncertainty. first, an efficient complex mixed-integer linear programming (milp) model by considering some real-world assumptions is developed for the inte...

in this research, we address the application of uncertaintyprogramming to design a multi-site, multi-product, multi-period,closed-loop supply chain (clsc) network. in order to make theresults of this article more realistic, a clsc for a case study inthe iron and steel industry has been explored. the presentedsupply chain covers three objective functions: maximization ofprofit, minimization of n...

in this paper, firstly by using a mixed linear programming a new model of locating facilities with limited capacity is presented to design a closed-loop supply chain in a multi-product and multi-period mode. then, using a robust optimization approach, the proposed model decreases in non-deterministic expansion. the results show that the proposed model can handle facility capacity in a closed lo...

Sustainability in supply chains is increasingly becoming one of the main themes in operations and supply chain management literature and business practices. Within the framework of Sustainable Supply Chain Management (SSCM), this paper studies the sequential pricing and stocking decisions in a closed-loop supply chain when the firm makes its sourcing decisions in dual supply channels including ...

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...
