“…In 1980, Jacobsen and Madsen [40] officially presented the 2E-LRP, in which they assumed that each customer can be selected to serve as a satellite, and proposed three constructive heuristics to solve the model. Subsequently, various types of mixed integer programming models were developed by Crainic et al [41], Vidović et al [42], and Winkenbach et al [43]. Cuda et al [44] provided an overview of a two-echelon distribution system, including the 2E-LRP, two-echelon vehicle routing problem and truck and trailer routing problem.…”

This study proposes a three-index flow-based mixed integer formulation to solve a two-echelon location routing problem with simultaneous pickup and delivery. In this formulation, pickup and delivery demands can be addressed using the same vehicle in each echelon of the network to reduce costs and increase logistics efficiency. We solve such NP-hard problem by developing a multistart hybrid heuristic with path relinking (MHH-PR) which is composed of local search and a variable neighbourhood descent algorithm. In the algorithm, three constructive heuristics are applied to generate diversified initial solutions, and path relinking is introduced for intensification and postoptimisation. Results indicate that MHH-PR can reduce the gap between the near optimal and global optimal solutions by 1%-2%. The proposed algorithm significantly improves computational efficiency by reducing the computational time of more than 10 min for existing cases involving 20 nodes to less than 10 s.

“…On December 21, 2016, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out at the 14th meeting of the Central Leading Group of Finance and Economics that the universal implementation of the waste classification system is related to the improvement of living environment of more than 1.3 billion people and the reduction, resource utilization and harmless disposal of garbage; and that "the establishment of garbage disposal systems for classified delivery, collection, transportation and treatment should be accelerated so as to form a rule of law" [5]. Based on the garbage classification system, which is promoted by the government, participated by the whole people, coordinated urban and rural development, and adapted to local conditions, efforts should be made to improve the coverage of the garbage classification system [6].…”

With the rapid development of Internet technology, renewable resource recovery enterprises should use modern information technology such as the Internet to establish a convenient and efficient renewable resource recovery trading service platform to improve the efficiency of recovery. In view of the current situation of recycling and utilization of waste materials, combined with "Internet +" information technology, this paper puts forward a "Internet +" lower platform framework for urban community waste materials recycling logistics consortium, and specific ways and suggestions for recycling waste materials are given, so as to optimize the recycling efficiency of waste materials and realize the economy, ecological and social benefits brought about by the recycling of waste materials.

“…They developed a clustering based approach to solve the problem. Recently, Vidovi et al 2016 [43] presents a mathematical formulation of a two-echelon location-routing problem in case of non-hazardous recyclables collection with a profit and distance dependent collection rate. For solving large problem instances, authors have developed heuristics.…”

In literature, the majorities of paper on the subject of modeling pooled distribution supply chain (SC) are based on vehicle routing problem and propose models for, only, the operational level of the supply chain. Modeling pooled SC is a problem including a strategic decision consisting of designing a network by locating a number of logistical platforms and tactical /operational decisions dealing with the customer allocation and vehicle routing. So, it will be interesting to propose and study a model as two echelons Location Routing problem (2E-LRP) for this type of chain for a more comprehensive resolution that separate decision levels. We opt for a multi-sourcing and multi-products 2E-LRP in which routes can end at different depots than the starting one in contrary of classical formulations. We add to usual constraints of 2E-LRP those specific to pooling. We propose a mixed integer linear programming (MILP) formulation for this problem. To measure the performance of our method, we have used Matlab solver to solve the MILP using extended known 2E-LRP instances and different configurations of costumers. The results obtained by comparing a collaboration scenario and non-collaboration one, show that collaboration leads to a reduction in transport costs, travel distances, and CO2 emissions in addition to the improvement of the vehicle load rate. This work opens up new lines of research in this area.
