“…Luu et al studied the reverse logistics network planning for electronic products by taking the minimum system total cost as the objective function [9]. Masoudipour et al analyzed the reverse logistics recovery rate model, which shows that a higher recovery rate corresponds to a greater profit [10]. These studies assumed that end-of-life electrical and electronic products are recycled separately by retailers and third party recycling centers as well as failed to consider the possibility of implementing a joint recovery mode.…”

Implementing a closed-loop supply chain in the appliance industry offers great practical significance given the characteristics of remanufacturing the decomposed parts of end-of-life electrical and electronic products. However, only few studies have analyzed the integration of a closed-loop supply chain for such products. To characterize this supply chain, find a suitable recovery mode, and determine its pricing strategy, a closed-loop supply chain with a manufacturer, retailer, third party recycling center, and consumers was designed. Afterward, a new joint recovery mode conducted by a retailer and third party recycling center was determined, and some pricing decision models under different mechanisms were built. Finally, corresponding operations management strategies were proposed by comparing pricing decision strategies under the cooperative and non-cooperative mechanisms based on game theory and optimization theory. The results demonstrate that the optimal selling price of each member enterprise under different mechanisms is the decreasing function of the sensitivity coefficient of consumers to selling price. Meanwhile, the overall profit of a closed-loop supply chain under different mechanisms gradually increases along with the proportion of remanufactured parts in end-of-life electrical and electronic products that can be directly used in remanufacturing. Moreover, Adopting different remanufacturing strategies under various operating mechanisms can differentiate the levels of profit. The proposed joint recovery mode is generally supportive of transaction cost theory, and the pricing strategy under different mechanisms is expected to have practical implications for enterprises to improve their operation benefits.

“…Various options have been provided in each model. The model provided by Masoudipour et al [12] has had no waste; however, wastes and the need for their disposal are more common. therefore, various recycling options have been considered in this paper to be efficient in different industries including clothing, automotive, and etc.…”

“…Transportation is one of the factors that play an important role in logistics and supply chain management [1]. This paper, by designing the vehicle routing and locating facilities problem in a sustainable supply chain, and reject the needs to define the sorting ratios by providing a conditional model (such as Masoudipour et al [12]) based on the quality of the returned products, helped to solve the problem. The present study seeks to answer the following questions:  Why organizations and governments in addition to focusing on new products management and planning have to allocate time and financial resources to manage returned products by the customer?…”

A B S T R A C TOne of the strategic decisions that can be made in supply chain is designing its network which has high impact on costs, and satisfaction level of customers. This paper focuses on designing a distribution network including determining the number and location of facilities, how to allocate the customers in network, and also determining the extent of carrying different products from different origins to different destinations; in this distribution network, according to the existing restrictions, customer demand is considered at minimum cost. In addition to secondary chain and reuse market as a retrieval option, model flexibility in defining quality and routing-locating is also among the innovation points of the model. Firstly, in forward chain the model consists of supplier, manufacturer, warehouse, distributor, and customer. In reverse chain, the model includes reuse market, secondary supply chain, collection, reprocess and disposal centers. The model could be generalized to industries with various strategies. Secondly, a sensitivity analysis was performed on a numerical example; also the nondominated sorting algorithm (NSGA II) was used for a large-sized sample; which its performance was measured by analysis of variance (ANOVA) test. The results show that, returned products with average quality lead to lower costs and higher social benefits; and meta-heuristic NSGA II method is efficient. Because, it creates business opportunities and leads to less economic and environmental costs.
