Coordination of Collection and Disassembly Planning for End-of-Life Product
Résumé
This work proposes a formulation for coordinating between collection and disassembly planning for an End-of-Life (EOL) product. The coordination deals with the balance between the number of products collected, the inventory level and the number of products disassembled. The objective function aims to minimize the total cost including the disassembly cost, the penalty cost, the holding cost and the running cost of vehicle. Two strategies with and without coordination were compared via numerical experiments. The results obtained show that the coordinated strategy allows total cost reducing.
