Designing a Green Supply Chain Transportation System for an Automotive Company Based On Bi-Objective Optimization

Abstract

Recently, due to the increasing awareness of communities regarding environmental issues and environmental regulations, companies have evolved to provide products with lower prices and better quality to retain and attract customers. Economics should also pay attention to environmental goals. Therefore, it is essential to provide a supply chain model that can consider both economic and environmental objectives. In this paper, the green direct supply chain network is presented to an automotive company, including five suppliers, primary warehouses, manufacturing plants, distributors, and sales centers. The objectives of this model are to minimize the total cost of construction, transportation, and the amount of carbon dioxide emissions during forwarding network transportation at all levels. The proposed model is also drawn using the weight method, which is one of the methods for solving multi-objective problems, and the solution of the model part. Ultimately, it has been discussed how much the automobile company should focus on reducing carbon dioxide so that managers can determine the best solutions from the Pareto border according to their organization’s priorities, which can be environmental or financial.

Efficient Green Supply Chain Management for Transit Manufacturing Enterprises Integrating AHP, K-NN, and MILP in the Context of Sustainable Development

“…It is found that adding these indicators to the model can effectively reduce supply chain costs [43]. Based on economic and environmental goals in the supply chain model, another study built a supply chain that includes transportation cost, carbon emissions, industrial productivity and transportation time [44]. By considering the above research content and the actual application environment of the existing supply chain, the supply chain index in Table 3 For small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises with transit, the network optimization problem of green supply chain can be defined as the random order quantity of customers.…”
