摘要

The Closed loop Supply chain network distribution is one of the most important problems with much real world application in supply chain management area. Presently climate change problem is one of the major concerns for Researchers. Closed loop green supply chain (GCLSC) problem is the extension of closed loop supply chain problem. Semiconductor industries are one of the major industries and a number of waste products in semiconductor industries are quite high. We have considered reducing the waste in semiconductor by recycling the useful waste electronic equipment. In GCLSC, we consider to maximize the profit in forward supply chain whereas we attempt to minimize the Carbon footprints at the same time. In this paper we used a hybrid of Estimation of distribution algorithm (EDA) and Territory Defined multi-objective algorithm to select the optimum number of facilities in the closed loop supply chain network. To examine the effectiveness of our Hybrid Territory Defined algorithm (EDATDEA), we compare the results with those obtained by NSGA II on a same GCLSC problem with different problem sizes and the same data sets.
