supply chain optimization approach for reverse logistics of end-of-life products

In this paper, the main focus is on an optimization approach to determine the supply of a variety of products to recover (at the end of their lives) in order to fulfill the demand of an assortment of components, and have an environmentally benign policy of minimizing waste generation. When the probl...
