Abstract

European Union obligates decision makers conducting many environmental factors in automotive

industry. Recovery of end-of-life vehicles (ELVs) is one of these legislatives which is a quiet important

activity. Furthermore, this recovery activity consists of several processes like collecting, dismantling,

shredding, recycling and landfilling. In this study, a fuzzy multi objective mixed integer linear

mathematical model is presented to optimize network design including qualitative and quantitative

factors in ELVs recovery system. The results attest the optimal number of facilities to be located and

how logistic networks may behave in a fuzzy environment.
