Environmentally conscious long-range planning and design of supply chain networks 具有环保意识的供应链网络长期设计规划 Abstract In this paper, a mathematical programming-based methodology is presented for the explicit inclusion of life cycle assessment (LCA) criteria as part of the strategic investment decisions related to the design and planning of supply chain networks. By considering the multiple environmental concerns together with the traditional economic criteria, the planning task is formulated as a multi-objective optimization problem. Over a long-range planning horizon, the methodology utilizes mixed integer modeling techniques to address strategic decisions involving the selection, allocation and capacity expansion of processing technologies and assignment of transportation links required to satisfy the demands at the markets. At the operational level, optimal production profiles and flows of material between various components within the supply chain are determined. As such, the formulation presented here combines the elements of the classical plant location and capacity expansion problems with the principles of LCA to develop a quantitative decision-support tool for environmentally conscious strategic investment planning. 本文提出一种数学规划方法，明确纳入生命周期评估准则作为与设计规划供应链网络有关的战略投资决策的一部分。通过将多环境问题和传统经济标准一起考虑，规划任务是一个多目标优化问题。在长期规划中，利用混合整数建模技术解决战略决策问题，其包括选择，分配和扩容加工技术，及满足市场需求的运输。在操作层面上，决定供应链内部各个组成部分的最优生产概况和物质流。因此，这里提出的公式结合工厂定位和LCA原则的能力扩展问题来发展一个定量决策工具以支持具有环保意识的战略投资规划。 1. Introduction Increasingly there has been an awareness of the impact that extended chemical production systems have on the environment, resulting in enterprise-wide management strategies such as product stewardship, life cycle assessment (LCA) and industrial ecology. However, despite the consensus about the relevance and benefits of adopting more sustainable business practices across entire chemical product value chains, the greatest challenge still lies in the practical application of the environmental management strategies in
