Overview

Analysis reveals economic benefits of integrating reverse and forward supply chains in electronic waste management, suggesting improvements in overall efficiency.

Key Points

  • The closed-loop supply chain optimization aims to reduce E-waste while maximizing total profit, highlighting its critical role.
  • By utilizing mixed-integer linear programming, the study identifies innovative ways to design E-waste networks for improved profitability.
  • The application focuses on a computer manufacturing network in Ontario, assessing distances and optimizing facility operations for sustainability.
  • Results indicate that incorporating new and recycled components significantly enhances waste management outcomes, informing future practices.
