in recent years, following the rapid industrialization of communities is of great interest to environmental deficiencies and governments have started to enforce environmental laws. according to requirements of today's world, green supply chain management is inevitable. this study was aimed to identify and prioritize the factors affecting green supply chain in the automotive industry companies, ...

High amounts of waste paper are disposed of every year in Iran posing the health hazard and environmental damages instead of being recovered. Collection, recovery and proper disposal of waste paper without damaging the environment need to design an efficient closed-loop supply chain network. The main objective of this paper is introducing a bi-objective, multi-echelon, multi-product and single-...

Conflicting objectives becomes a common issue in many supply chain network optimization problems. In this paper, a new model is formulated to design a green supply chain network through a new mixed integer linear programming problem. Uncertain demand and stochastic environmental respect levels are the main parameters of the formulation. The first objective function minimizes the cost of the sup...

Increasing global notices in environmental protection, green supply chain management (GSCM) has received much attention by researchers and managers more than the past. Commonly, firms have considered cost criteria to select their suppliers. Despite the fact that there are various papers considering the formal criteria in supplier selection, there is a few limited numbers considering the environ...

Many supply chain problems involve optimization of various conflicting objectives. This paper formulates a green supply chain network throughout a two-stage mixed integer linear problem with uncertain demand and stochastic environmental respects level. The first objective function of the proposed model considers minimization of supply chain costs while the second objective function minimizes CO...

organizations in order to capture sustainability and competitive advantage need to pay attention to environmental issues throuoghout their supply chain. by decreasing costs, improving image and being protected against environmental laws it can lead to organizational competitive advantage. current research has been done investigating the relationship between green supply chain and capturing cope...

Purpose – This literature review provides an overview of the traditional and green supply chain structures, an overview of the traditional and green performance measures and measurement systems. The supply chain infrastructure modelling is discussed from the strategic point of view, e.g. facility location. Different supply chain design models with single and multiple objectives are discussed. T...

closed-loop supply chain network design is a critical issue due to its impact on both economic and environmental performances of the supply chain. in this paper, we address the problem of designing a multi-echelon, multi-product and capacitated closed-loop supply chain network. first, a mixed-integer linear programming formulation is developed to maximize the total profit. the main contribution...

globalization, increasing the global regulations of governmental and non-governmental organizations and customers’ request regarding to environmental compliance issues have led to organizations considering the green supply chain management to improve the environmental and economical performance. in order to maximize the efficiency of energy consumption and resources across the supply chain, gre...
