This paper concentrates on the problem of urban construction waste recycling network optimization, and the main innovation of this paper is to introduce mixed integer programming in this problem. Firstly, the system layout of the construction waste recycling industry is proposed. Moreover, to construct an urban construction waste recycling network, we should formulate the rules of resource optimization...
This paper presents a new tactical optimization problem for non-hazardous waste and end-life product supply chain. Waste transport and recycling become crucial in our modern society, with a huge environmental and economic impact for industrials and communities. Operations on products during transport such as grinding or sorting allows companies to densify transports and reduce the overall supply cost...
Recently, the level of electronic waste (e-waste) is increasing especially in Egypt due to rapid technology change, and the increase in the consumption of electronic products. This paper proposed a reverse logistics network model for e-waste products that is solved by Genetic algorithm (GA), which aims tominimize the total cost and considering the collection cost, installation cost of sorting, repairing...
An European directive established that all EU countries must have, until the end of 2006, a recovery network for the electric and electronic equipment waste (WEEE). In Portugal, a group of producers formed a non-profit organization to design and manage this waste flow. In this work, a model developed previously by the authors to design and plan a generic WEEE network is presented and applied to the...
