In recent years, the growing industrial and economic competition, environmental concerns, and governmental pressures on manufacturers regarding waste management have underscored the significance of designing a reverse supply chain and closed-loop network. Simultaneously, the potential for profit arising from product recycling has further emphasized the importance of these systems. This research focuses on developing a four-stage closed-loop network model for the supply chain, taking into account the uncertainty of product recycling rates. The primary objective of this study is to provide an integer linear programming model aimed at minimizing supply chain costs and customer service time under uncertain conditions. The supply chain model is designed by integrating queuing theory and product recycling system optimization. A critical aspect of this research involves modeling the uncertainty in the return rate of consumer products in the closed-loop supply chain, with the aim of developing a robust approach to address this issue. Additionally, the performance of the proposed model in the paper industry is evaluated, and a sensitivity analysis is conducted with respect to the decision variables using two metaheuristic algorithms: the Multiple Objective Harmony Search and the Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm.
