Closed-Loop Supply Chain Planning Model of Rare Metals

Abstract: Rare metals (RMs) are becoming increasingly important in high-tech industries associated with the Fourth Industrial Revolution, such as the electric vehicle (EV) and 3D printer industries. As the growth of these industries accelerates in the near future, manufacturers will also face greater RM supply risks. For this reason, many countries are putting considerable effort into securing the RM supply. For example, countries including Japan, Korea, and the USA have adopted two major policies: the stockpile system … Show more

“…The economic factors considered include the maximization of the total profit or the minimization of the total cost resulting from construction and operation processes of the CLSC design problem [4][5][6][7][8]16,17,20,22]. Wang and Hsu [5] developed a CLSC design problem to minimize the total cost, which is the aggregate of the total production cost, the total transportation cost, and the total fixed cost.…”

“…In view of the uncertainties and information limitations of the GSCM, fuzzy methods are used to select suppliers [8]. At the same time, due to the existence of qualitative and quantitative evaluation criteria [9][10][11], it is very necessary to establish a suitable and highly flexible supplier selection method [12][13][14][15].…”
