چکیده مقاله:

Recovery of used products is receiving much attention recently due to growing environmental concerns.In this paper, we address the carbon footprint basedon problem arising in closed-loop supply chain where returned products are collected from customers. These returned products can either be disposed or be remanufactured to be sold as new ones again. Here, we formulate a comprehensive closed-loop model for the logistics planning considering profitability and ecological goals. In this way, we can achieve the ecological goalreducing the overall amount of CO2.Moreover, the profitability criterion can be supported in the cyclic network with the minimum costs and maximum service level. To validate the model a numerical experiment is worked out.

Food transportation issues and reducing carbon footprint

Transportation is the largest end-use contributor toward global warming in the United States and many other developed countries. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE 2009 ) calculates that CO 2 emissions from transportation surpassed two billion metric tons in 2007. Yet a survey by Golicic et al. ( 2010 ) fi nds that fewer than 10% of Fortune 500 companies have addressed the environmental impacts...

Multi-Objective Location-Routing Model With Multiple Transportation Modes For Designing Relief Networks Under Uncertainty‎

A three-level relief chain including a number of suppliers in fixed locations, candidate distribution centers and affected areas at certain points are considered. A mixed integer nonlinear programming model is proposed for open transportation location routing problem by considering split delivery of demand. To solve a realistic problem, foregoing parameters are considered as fuzzy in our propos...

MULTI-OBJECTIVE LOCATION-ROUTING MODEL WITH MULTIPLE TRANSPORTATION MODES FOR DESIGNING RELIEF NETWORKS UNDER UNCERTAINTY

Natural disasters and crisis are inevitable and each year impose destructive effects on human as injuries and damage to property. In natural  disasters and after the outbreak of the crisis, demand for logistical goods and services increase. Effective distribution of emergency aid could have a significant role in minimizing the damage and fatal accident. In this study, a three-level relief chain...

Reducing Petroleum Consumption from Transportation

The United States consumed more petroleum-based liquid fuel per capita than any other OECDhigh-income country—30 percent more than the second-highest country (Canada) and 40 percent more than the third-highest (Luxemburg). This paper examines the main channels through which reductions in U.S. oil consumption might take place: (a) increased fuel economy of existing vehicles, (b) increased use of...

Overlapping Strategies for Reducing Carbon Emissions from the Personal Transportation Sector∗

We develop a numerical model to simulate the impacts of overlapping energy policies on carbon emissions in the U.S. personal transportation sector. Consumers in our model demand fuel based on their underlying demand for miles and choices about car fuel economy; firms supply fuel by blending gasoline with corn, sugarcane, and cellulosic ethanol. We find that the current fuel tax, size-based fuel...
