A stochastic programming approach with improved multi-criteria scenario-based solution method for sustainable reverse logistics design of Waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE)
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-12-17)
Today, the increased public concern for sustainable development and more stringent environmental regulations have become the most important driving forces for value recovery from end-of-life and end-of use products through reverse logistics. Waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) contains both valuable components that need to be recycled and hazardous substances that have to be properly ...
An improved multi-objective programming with augmented ε-constraint method for hazardous waste location-routing problem
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-05-31)
Hazardous waste location-routing problems are of importance due to the potential risk for nearby residents and the environment. In this paper, an improved mathematical formulation is developed based upon a multi-objective mixed integer programming approach. The model aims at assisting decision makers in selecting locations for different facilities including treatment plants, recycling plants and ...
A multi-objective mathematical programming for sustainable reverse logistics network design. Part I: Model formulation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2016-02)
Reverse logistics has received more and more attention during the past decade due to the increasing public awareness of sustainable development. Because of the fluctuation in both quantity and quality of the reverse material flow, design and planning of reverse logistics network is much more complicated comparing with the forward ones. Therefore, it is important to develop decision support tools for ...
A general reverse logistics network design model for product reuse and recycling with environmental considerations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article; Tidsskriftsartikkel, 2016-04-02)
Reverse logistics is believed to be one of the most promising solutions for capturing the remaining values from used products and has been extensively focused by both academics and practitioners during the past two decades. Conceptual framework, mathematical programming and computational algorithms have been developed for decision making at strategic, tactical and operational levels of a reverse ...
