Abstract

In this paper, a closed-loop supply chain model with efficient operation strategy (CLSC-OS) is proposed. In the CLSC-OS, various facilities which can be used in forward logistics (FL) and reverse logistics (RL) are taken into consideration. A mathematical formulation is proposed to design the CLSC-OS and it is implemented using genetic algorithm (GA) approach. In numerical experiment, for efficient operation strategy, several scenarios using various factors such as remanufacturing rate, profit premium rate, discount rate, and return rate based on revenue-cost rate is considered and analyzed. Experimental results shows that discount rate and profit premium rate have a significant influence on revenue-cost rate.
