Abstract
Recently, there has been a considerable requirement for integrating sustainability into the management of supply chains networks. However, not all these aspects have been studied or evaluated within the optimization models developed, which are applied for the design of the supply chain network. The aim of this research is to establish a framework based on optimization models for designing the supply chain network by including all aspects of sustainability. This would enable the management of both household and industrial waste. A testing process will be carried out to evaluate the networks behavior under different public policies that impact the various level of the network. Additionally, the framework aims at finding the optimal configuration of the network for each of the policies considered. With the implementation of this proposed framework, decision-making at various organizational levels is facilitated, promoting sustainability practices and the adoption of public policies improving performance in supply chains. Synthetical instances are tested, and the results obtained confirm and reinforce the relevance of the integration of these decisions and sustainability aspects for supply chain network design.
