A location-inventory-routing problem to design a circular closed-loop supply chain network with carbon tax policy for achieving circular economy: An augmented epsilon-constraint approach

Kannan Govindan et al.

Summary: The emergence of the circular economy concept has prompted industry owners to adopt green supply chains and reduce waste. A comprehensive model is developed to optimize both operational and strategic decisions in a closed-loop supply chain network. This model integrates location-inventory-routing problem, carbon tax policy, and vehicle scheduling problem to enhance efficiency and sustainability.

A comprehensive framework for sustainable closed-loop supply chain network design

Madjid Tavana et al.

Summary: This study proposes an integrated multi-objective mixed-integer linear programming model for designing a sustainable closed-loop supply chain network. The model considers cross-docking, location-inventory-routing, time window, supplier selection, order allocation, transportation modes with simultaneous pickup and delivery, and uncertainty. An intelligent simulation algorithm is used to generate CLSC network data, and a fuzzy goal programming approach is employed to solve the model under uncertainty. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model.

Sustainable fuzzy multi-trip location-routing problem for medical waste management during the COVID-19 outbreak

Erfan Babaee Tirkolaee et al.

Summary: A novel mixed-integer linear programming model was developed to optimize medical waste management during the COVID-19 pandemic. The model aims to minimize total traveling time, violation from time windows/service priorities, and infection/environmental risk. Time windows play a key role in defining service priorities for hospitals with different risk levels.

Medical waste management during coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak: A mathematical programming model

Kannan Govindan et al.

Summary: This paper presents a bi-objective mixed-integer linear programming model to minimize total costs and risks of population exposure to pollution during the management of medical waste generated by COVID-19. Realistic assumptions are considered, and a fuzzy goal programming approach is applied to assess the efficiency of the model using data from 13 nodes of medical waste production in a location west of Tehran.

Hazardous infectious waste collection and government aid distribution during COVID-19: A robust mathematical leader-follower model approach

Jaber Valizadeh et al.

Summary: The outbreak of COVID-19 has led to an increase in hazardous infectious waste, posing challenges for governments worldwide. This study suggests a leader-follower approach for waste collection and government aid distribution to control the spread of the virus effectively. By providing government support and managing citizen demand efficiently, the spread of the virus can be controlled through quarantine decisions.
